'Hancock'

DVD Release Date: November 25, 2008

By Ivana Redwine, About.com

Length: 92 minutes
MPAA Rating: PG-13 for some intense sequences of sci-fi action and violence, and language. (An unrated edition of this film is also available on DVD.)

In this offbeat superhero movie, Will Smith plays John Hancock, who possesses immense physical strength, is invulnerable and can fly. But he drinks to excess, looks like a Skid Row bum and has a disagreeable personality. His feats can be heroic, but they often have devastating side effects that bring lawsuits and bad press. He saves the life of Ray (Jason Bateman), but in the process causes a train wreck. Then Ray, who is a PR guy, helps the superhero improve his image, but it turns out Ray's wife (Charlize Theron) leads to a big reveal about Hancock that is surprising.
