What to Know

Critics Consensus

The Incredible Hulk may not be quite the smashing success that fans of Marvel's raging behemoth might hope for, but it offers more than enough big green action to make up for its occasionally puny narrative.

Tom Charity CNN.com The climax is a bit of a yawn, but most of what precedes it is vigorous and sharp. Apr 14, 2013 Full Review Joshua Rothkopf Time Out Chicago Norton makes for a wiry, curious Bruce Banner. But you can tell from the film's tedium-inducing smackdowns that a different philosophy prevailed: the artificial Zen of video-game playing. Rated: 3/5 May 4, 2012 Full Review Wally Hammond Time Out A more satisfactory adaptation of the spirit of Stan Lee's Marvel character. Rated: 3/5 Nov 18, 2011 Full Review Cory Woodroof For the Win (USA Today) While it pales in comparison to Ang Lee’s thrilling 2003 Hulk, Edward Norton’s lone venture into the MCU as the angry green guy was a perfectly suitable introduction for the character. Feb 27, 2024 Full Review Christopher Lloyd The Film Yap The "forgotten" MCU feature is now available on Disney+, and it remains an interesting if flawed vehicle for Edward Norton that might have taken the Avengers saga in a very different direction. Rated: 3.5/5 Aug 1, 2023 Full Review Nicolás Delgadillo Discussing Film It's the first time the character has ever looked truly impressive onscreen, and every action scene is explosive and has real power behind it, with every blow feeling strong enough to crack the earth wide open.

Professional D This used to be my favourite movie before I saw Deadpool. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/28/24 Full Review Nickolas K Probably the best version of hulk than mark ruffalo as hulk Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/25/24 Full Review thiago s filme legal, gostei do hulk e do edward norton no filme, achei bacana o vilão, e o elenco ficou bacaninha. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/24/24 Full Review bob l Best live action hulk to date. Really encapsulates hulk’s character. Wish Edward Norton didn’t try to make it shorter and I hate the mcu for making hulk a pussy. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/08/24 Full Review DZ E 73/100 Not The Best.... Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/29/24 Full Review Audience Member Sad to see such a cool superhero having such a underwhelming movie. In my opinion this should not be part of the mcu since it has almost no impact on the story. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 09/11/24 Full Review Read all reviews
