How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A taut chase thriller that uses superhero spectacle to explore the internal struggle of a man hunted for what he is. It's as much about fear and fugitive desperation as it is about spectacular action.

Reviews
How crazy is it that 17 years later Thunderbolt Ross, Betty, and the Leader are back in the MCU, after the Abomination returned a few years ago? Wild, truly wild.
I think it was a miss to gloss over the origin story with an opening credits montage. Everyone might know the origin of Spider-Man and Batman; I don't think the general public knows Hulk like that. It should have at least been a proper scene or two, and then a time jump.
I want to love this because of Liv Tyler and Edward Norton, but I just can't quite get there.
