Having seen it only recently for the first time, I liked it. It got the job done.

My single favorite thing about it was the part where Hulk fought off the dog creatures with Betty Ross there. He had a moment of standing in front of her when the coast was clear, in awe. I liked that. Simple though it seems, high IQ super genius Banner has to be stripped of all his brain power to appreciate Betty. Not love, appreciate. There's a difference because you can love someone without appreciating them, as Bruce clearly does. But Hulk appreciates Betty. I thought it was a sweet touch.

Plus I have a thing for Jennifer Connolly's face. I've thought she was beautiful for long as I can remember.

I also liked the general desert setting where Hulk could wile out and throw tanks with his proximity to the nearest city act as a countdown with tension. Nick Nolte's also terrific.

The desert settings is a big reason I am a fan of Hulk. The expansive landscape is more cinematic to me. The settings are a good match for the creature's personality.

Also, the military tactics used to direct the creature's movements or possibly contain him are far more plausible and coordinated than in TiH.

Right away the desert reminded me of the animated series.

I like the desert too. It's a perfect backdrop for him.

I didn't really like The Incredible Hulk movie that came later. I like Edward Norton but I didn't think he was a good fit. It's probably a little better than I remember, but Norton throws so much shade at the production I can't deal with it knowing he's so sour.
