Trivia

Stylistically, the filmmakers chose a darker shade of green from Hulk, and decided to not make him as large. His size does not increase as he becomes further enraged, staying at a consistent height. See more »

Goofs

No self-respecting Lt. General (or any other type of General for that matter) would be caught dead without his cover in public like Ross and Greller are throughout the film. See more »

Crazy Credits

SPOILER: A scene appears before the closing credits: as General Ross sits in a bar, he is visited by Tony Stark, who banters a little and finally informs Ross "they're putting a team together." This leads into The Avengers (a superhero team of which Iron Man and the Hulk are founding members). See more »

A whole lot better than you think
8 June 2008 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

Honestly, as soon as I heard they were making another Hulk movie I was surprised. When I heard they had cast Ed Norton, I was shocked. So going into this movie I had no idea what to expect. Coming out, I feel like an idiot because it was really masterfully done. Lettier does an amazing job, Norton was fantastic, and as far as a comic book movie goes, this one is just about on top with little nods and mentions. If you don't walk out of this film screaming HELLL YEAAAA, then you are not normal. Far better than Ang Lee's attempt at the green man and as far as this year, it's definitely Marvel's year. No better way to make up for Spiderman 3 than releasing Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk just a month apart. Thank you Marvel for cleaning the mess Spiderman 3 left and clearing your name. This film just makes me thing of one word...AVENGERS
