	Media	Author	Review
		Kirk Honeycutt The Hollywood Reporter	"Iron Man" has more wit and style, but Hulk is a neat thrill ride with an intelligent script by Zak Penn and smart, well-paced direction by the French director of "The Transporter" series, Louis Leterrier."
		A. O. Scott The New York Times	"Caution: Contents Turn Angry When Shaken. (...) A middling superhero movie! I wish I could say that was incredible."
		Roger Ebert rogerebert.com	"[It] is no doubt an ideal version of the Hulk saga for those who found Ang Lee's 'Hulk' (2003) too talky, or dare I say, too thoughtful (...) [It] spends way too much time in, dare I say, noisy and mindless action sequences (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"
		Mick LaSalle SFGATE	"[It] embraces its identity as a sci-fi-summer-action-blockbuster extravaganza. Along the way, it actually comes close to finding the balance that Lee was looking for. The result is not as good as 'Iron Man'"
		Ann Hornaday The Washington Post	"It's a solid, well-made film that will likely please the most important audience: Hulk fans"
		Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"The Incredible Hulk is nowhere near incredible. In fact, in its rush to deliver a constant rush of action it forgets to think at all. But the latest spin on the Marvel comic-book hero delivers the popcorn goods. (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"
		Kenneth Turan Los Angeles Times	"The result is solid and efficient, if unadventurous, illustrating both the lure and the limitations of comic book extravaganzas."
		Todd McCarthy Variety	"A straightforward actioner that delivers the goods with no unnecessary frills or digressions."
