Hancock was OK but it was obvious that the reason the movie seemed disjointed is because of the last minute reshoots, the eagle obvously had a important role in Hancocks life but we never got a chance to find out why (cutting room floor?), Remember Hancock says to Charlize brother and sister don't kiss like that but in the film the kiss never happened she tosses him out before their lips met, and when she showed up at his trailor she was dressed for battle dark costume and eye liner, the elemental reaction when they are together, remember she also stated that that they are opposite and he was built as an insurance policy to be a hero, so she must be evil, remember in the teaser Bateman says "good hancock make it look hard" not in the movie though. ❋ Unknown (2008)
