Movie Quickie: Hancock

Lois: They cut our school's funding if it's got low test scores? This is not what the founding fathers had in mind. (Cuts to scene to signing of Declaration of Independence.)
Man On Podium: Okay, we're here to sign this declaration of our independence. Let's take roll call first. Thomas Jefferson?
Thomas Jefferson: Here.
Man on Podium: Benjamin Franklin?
Benjamin Franklin: Here.
Man on Podium: John Footpenis?
John Hancock: It's Hancock now.
Man on Podium: Why?
John Hancock: Mind your business, that's why

Will Smith, not as funny and as silly as usual, but a strong performance none the less. Jason Bateman needs more leading rolls in movies, albeit the guy has been working in Hollywood since he was a zygote he needs a good movie where he plays the lead. Maybe Judd Apatow or Adam McKay can help him with a good vehicle. I agree with most reviewers in saying that the movie could have been more, but I was satisfied with what I got. A good summer popcorn movie.
