When Betty first meets David Banner, they discuss a man named Benny. Benny was a soldier who appeared in the Hulk graphic novel "The Dogs of War" which introduced the concept of Hulk dogs (which appear in this film). Pictures from the same novel are flipped by the screen when the opening Marvel logo appears. See more »
Goofs
The two men operating the top-mounted machine guns on the (fake) Abrams tanks would have been the tank commander and the loader. The loader, however, never drops back into the tank to load the main gun, yet the main guns on the tanks fire at the Hulk several times when they encounter each other. In addition to that, as tankers are running away from one tank after losing the turret, only two of them are seen, instead of the 4 men in the crew of an Abrams tank. See more »

Few people actually realized that this is not exactly a superhero action movie. More precisely, he is not superhero. After all, the Hulk has never really been a hero. Always in exile and persecution of enemies.
And it was very skillfully shown by Eng Lee. He created what Christopher Nolan later did. As it turned out, the audience was not ready for the drama "about comics." Maybe it was simply not worth shooting this film by Eng Lee, although he portrayed the perfect drama. He showed the Hulk quite the other side.
Personally, I am a sincere fan of this film, like comics in general. All as always waited for a passing summer "militancy", which they are feeding us up to now and will do it again. Everything turned out to be too bad ...
Eric Bana did everything right, that would not say critics. He showed all the experiences of the hero as it was not in the comics, but as it would be in real life.
Jennifer Connelly in my opinion did not show anything, except for some tears. Bad.
Nick Nolty stood out most of all. He truly played the villain and father of Bruce Banner. The brightest figure in the film.
I appreciate only the game of actors, since this is not an action.
I'll put the film as a first-rate drama created by a first-rate director who later created the best drama in general (Brokeback Mountain):
