Hulk
This is one of the most satisfying �sci-fi-special-effects� movies I have seen since Jurassic Park. Of late, there have been so many bad, costly, comic-book CGI flops. I believe, like many other reviewers, that The Hulk owes its success to the fact that this is a �director�s movie�. It retains its comic book feel, with some amazing set-piece sequences; but its real strength has been Ang Lee�s treatment. And the guys at ILM have really kicked ass.
Spoiler: A funny thing is that, almost always, the noblest thing for an American hermit superhero to do would be to go to South America as a doctor and fight for the natives.
