Image details: Hancock Paris Premiere served by picapp.com

It’s a Will Smith flick opening July 2, so it probably doesn’t matter what critics say. But early reviews have not been kind to homeless superhero movie Hancock. In perhaps the worst indictment floating around so far, Variety’s Todd McCarthy invokes the name of famed Ahh-nold flop The Last Action Hero.

Hancock really toes the edge of its PG-13 rating so it sounds like you might not want to take the kiddies for this one. Let’s face it, Will Smith just needs to be Will Smith and everything on screen needs to blow up properly and this opens at no.1. You can expect that top spot to become a hot potato as we still have Hellboy II, Dark Knight and X-Files: I Want to Believe on the horizon.

My wife’s going to make me see it because she watches all Will’s movies. Especially I, Robot. Especially the scene where he’s in the shower. Excuse me, I have to go work out now. I’m feeling really insecure.
