Good movie, but how the hell did this make $600 million worldwide?


I liked it, it was fun, but I don't understand how it made so much money. It feels like the type of film that is a sleeper hit in March, and it was good, but I don't understand how it made as much money as most big blockbusters.

Anyone else wondered this?

reply

It made lots of money because lots of people went to see it.

Probably because it had Will Smith in it playing a 'superhero'.

I remember the trailer was really good. All the funny parts were in the trailer though. It really was a bland movie.

I can't speak for the rest of the world, but being a lifelong movie fanatic, who has watched every film genre, good and bad, from Citizen Kane to Heaven's Gate, I will simply say that I loved Hancock and I left the theater feeling GOOD!
