Peter Berg's sloppy misfire is situated somewhere between the dumb, high-concept comedy of MY SUPER-EX GIRLFRIEND and M. Night Shayamalan's dark, anguished UNBREAKABLE. Like SUPER-EX, it's a comedy set in an ordinary world afflicted with an out-of-control superhero with serious emotional problems. But it's also loaded down with all the psychological seriousness that made UNBREAKABLE such a drag; the result is an inconsistent, incoherent anti-superhero action-adventure comedy.
With his superhuman strength, indestructible body and ability to leap far in to the atmosphere in a single bound, resident superhero John Hancock (Will Smith) should be best-loved guy ...
