Todd Brown ScreenAnarchy Interestingly, The Trial of the Incredible Hulk is the most faithful of the TV movies to the comics when it comes to establishing the origin of Daredevil and his antagonistic relationship with the Kingpin. Feb 23, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Katherine R Incredible superhero romance about two broken lonely men finding each other in the chaos of a terribly corrupt New York. A must-see for fans of the comics Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/13/24 Full Review matthias s "The Trial of the Incredible Hulk" (1989) is an ambitious yet flawed attempt to bring the beloved comic book character to television. Directed by and starring Bill Bixby, the film features a crossover with Daredevil, played by Rex Smith, which adds a layer of intrigue. Lou Ferrigno’s portrayal of the Hulk remains iconic, bringing raw power and emotion to the role. However, the film’s pacing is uneven, and the courtroom drama feels underdeveloped, detracting from the overall impact. The special effects, while nostalgic, have not aged well, limiting the immersion for modern audiences. Despite its shortcomings, the film holds a certain charm for fans of the era, offering a glimpse into early superhero television adaptations. With a mix of entertaining moments and missed opportunities, "The Trial of the Incredible Hulk" earns a modest 2.5 stars, primarily for its earnest effort and nostalgic value. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/22/24 Full Review Granny G Basically it’s just another episode of the TV Show. The Daredevil character is a bit weak due the the actor they chose to play him. The dream sequence is absolutely hilarious. Therefore is receives a 3 star rating for making me laugh out loud.🤘🏻 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/26/24 Full Review benny R Not that bad for an old film. I watched it today on Pluto network with my dad. Daredevil should have been wearing red and the boat/escape jet in the end was terrible, but hey it was the 80's Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/17/23 Full Review Audience Member I think out of the three revival hulk TV movies, this one I think is the weakest one. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/08/21 Full Review Audience Member Ain't as entertaining as the tv series or The Incredible Hulk Returns but it's awesome Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews
