10 Blockbuster Films Made More Interesting Thanks To Their Flaws

6. Hulk

The Flaws: Assigning an acclaimed art film director of Ang Lee's caliber to direct a major Hollywood blockbuster probably seemed like less of a gamble after his outstanding Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which perfectly blended action, drama and romance into one spellbinding whole. Sadly Lee's deliberate approach didn't exactly blend well with the big, angry green guy, leaving audiences fidgety, even bored, as the movie dared to develop Bruce Banner as a character before The Hulk finally showed up, far too long into the bulky 138-minute runtime. To Lee's credit, he tried his hardest to approach Banner as seriously as he had any of the characters from his more grounded dramas, though in a huge way that's also the problem: it is damn-near impossible to take this character seriously, especially when his alter ego's favoured quip is "Hulk smash!" Why It's More Interesting: Much like Bryan Singer's attempt at Superman, it's an admirably flawed movie, one which at least tried to branch out and reinterpret the Banner character in an ambitious way. This combined with its superb art style makes it unlike any other Hulk movie before or since, and while it proves divisive, it is nothing if not intriguing.
