The horsemen end up in China and it seems instant. They show the hulk waiting for them at the rendezvous point makes sense it was instant they went to China? Then we find out they actually took a plane? How the hell long did the hulk wait for them on the side of that road? How the hell far was that rally point? You would think maybe just a few blocks away? No this apparently was as far away as long as it takes to fly to China?

More important so Morgan freeman is a good guy this entire time? Instead of telling the hulk this critical information he leaves him alone and I'm the dark on huge key details. The guy was about 10 seconds from being dead? Come on Morgan what he hell was the point of even playing this cat and mouse your move *beep* game?

I thought the movie was ridiculous, but I don't think these are plot holes in the movie's world. The point was to make you think that they had somehow teleported to Macau. The Hulk called them when he was supposed to call them, but they were likely unconscious on the plane at the time. So when you saw them land in the laundry(?) basket in Macau (scene A), and then saw the Hulk at the rally point (scene B), B likely took place actually well before A. It wasn't a particularly good twist but a twist nonetheless.

Rewatch the final scene(s) with Morgan Freeman and the Hulk. Freeman said he wanted to see the Hulk become the "magician that he was born to be," so he didn't tell him everything so that the Hulk would learn and progress on his own. Freeman also confirmed in his final speech that he was involved with the safe and making sure the wristwatch was there. He likely knew that the Hulk could survive the safe and that the team was on its way.

There are things in this movie that are better left unthought about. Consider this. Harry Potter hypnotized the crew in his electric chute, and they remain unconscious for the entire trip to China. Instead of simply waking them up in China, he drops their unconscious bodies down another chute and wakes them up partway down, so they land in the laundry baskets (at a restaurant?) thinking they were in the chute in NY. What else did he do to them while they were unconscious?

I'm just dying when I'm reading these posts with seriousness in it and ya'll are saying "The Hulk" and "Harry Potter" seamlessly like it's nothing. 

I was wondering about the part where Dylan was dying. If Freeman was good and watching out for him, shouldn't he have saved him?
Could he have known the team would show up at the last second and Dylan would open the case so they could save his life?
Seemed to leave it up to chance that he would get out. He's lucky that Dylan didn't die in that spot.

Most importantly why the Hulk need the horseman while he can just turn green?
