a film very much made up of two halves, hancock was one of the more enjoyable films of the summer for this viewer. seeing it again on dvd, in a brand new 15-rated extended cut no less, benefitted the narrative flow of the film greatly. while the story originally suffered from a mid-story twist that seperated the story way too much, and for which the film was greatly attacked critically, the extra few minutes allowed with the extended cut actually help the film greatly. gone is the feeling of a mid-length change of pace, and in comes a feeling of a more natural flow.
