Top Headlines Well, in the movie "Hancock", directed by Peter Berg, Hancock (Will Smith) is an alcoholic, lazy and homeless superhero who saves many lives. But in doing so, he leaves a great deal of damage in his wake, which makes the whole town dislike him. After Hancock saves the life of Ray Embrey, a public relations executive played by Jason Bateman, Embrey helps Hancock to change his "careless" approach to saving people. When Hancock meets Ray's wife Mary (Charlize Theron), everything starts to change for the both of them. Hancock finally realizes that he is the way he is so he can save people's lives, and he finally figures out that he's not the only one who has superpowers. "Hancock" is an action/comedy movie that is an hour and 32 minutes long. It has a few twist and turns and features Will Smith's funny and vulnerable sides, which makes it a movie definitely worth watching.
