    • Trivia
      Edward Norton was approached to play Bruce Banner, but turned it down, as, despite being a fan of the Hulk, he didn't like the script. He later accepted the role in The Incredible Hulk (2008).
    • Goofs
      When Hulk sees the mutant dogs approaching, he picks Betty up and puts her in her car for safety, but his hands are too large to operate a car door latch. In the novelization, he shoves Betty against the vehicle to have her open the door and thrust herself inside before he slams it shut.

      The Hulk: Puny human!

    • Crazy credits
      The Marvel Comics logo features comic-book images of the Hulk in its pages; it's shaded green, the Hulk's traditional color; and after it fully forms it bubbles out of the frame, reflecting the biological experiments carried out.
    • Alternate versions
      Universal Studios released a Family Friendly version on DVD that removes objectionable content. This version has a blue border on the DVD cover.

    Surprisingly good
    I had rather low expectations before seeing Hulk, since the early criticism was pretty harsh and basically the whole mojo around this movie didn't sound very good. However, I was very pleasantly surprised. As many previous reviewers pointed out, Ang Lee has created a marvelous movie/comic book amalgam, which may be too cerebral to most of the viewers, but Hulk has always been pretty complicated character anyway. If the movie had been made as a "Hulk Smash!" bruhaha it would most certainly...well, suck! This way we got excellent Sam Elliot and Jennifer Connely, and very good Nick Nolte and Eric Bana, all capped with absolutely brilliant directing by Ang Lee. If only all the other comic book movies were directed in this way...
