Verdict: The Incredible Hulk

So I saw the big green fighting machine on Friday and it was awesome. The Incredible Hulk changes up David Banner's story of controlling the monster within by bringing in new actors, changing the atmosphere and adding some amazing CG effects. This time around David Banner is played by Edward Norton who is one of my favorite actors. Banner is on the run from the U.S. military who are trying to use his powers to create super soldiers. Banner's love interest is his past lab associate Elizabeth Roth who is portrayed by Liv Tyler. This is Tyler's second movie this summer, including the Strangers and she has been outstanding in both of them, not to mention easy on the eyes. Watching the entire movie is definitely a journey, in the beginning of the movie the pace is very slow but it helps to explain the dilemma and back story to Banner's life after becoming the Hulk. Once the movie gets to the action it's great. The transformation scenes alone are intense, the Hulk is truly a beast crushing everything in his path. There is so much testosterone in this movie it's ridiculous, when you see the Hulk in action his anger and emotions just pour out of the screen. The movie is really good, great action movie for the summer even hardcore comic book fans should love this movie. (4/5 *'s) (._.)

NOTE: If you saw Iron Man this summer, there's a nice little surprise in the movie too.
