2008
A Peter Berg Film
Protagonist(s): Will Smith, Charlize Theron, Jason Bateman
Run-time: 1 hour 32 minutes
No one knows from whence he came. No one knows the demons which haunt him. All they know is that despite his drunken attempts at heroism destruction follows in his wake.
This film is a very good example of a superhero film where the hero has no idea how he came to be, and no one can tell him.
It also has the 'drunken town Sheriff' twist to the plot, where the character is given incentive to change and repent.
The effects are awesome. The plot is good. The acting talent is excellent. The comedy is mostly physical.
I recommend this film for any anti-hero enthusiasts, and those who enjoy a good ribbing of superheroes.
