There isn’t a lot of cinematic material to work with...
) 
Not too far removed from his success with Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000), Director Ang Lee (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon; Brokeback Mountain) couldn’t have chosen a more difficult undertaking than 2003’s box office disappointment—(based on how much they actually spent to make this film) The Hulk.
Seriously, there really isn’t a lot of cinematic material to work with when it comes to a character such as The Hulk that usually focuses on the most basic tenets of needs such as: anger, safety, love, and fear. In addition, the concept of being gifted with seemingly unearthly strength but at the same time cursed with intelligence so feeble is sure to glue patrons of all ages in their seats.
However, Lee may have taken this as a challenge and shook things up by doing away with The Hulk’s crude comic origins (that of Bruce Banner being belted by gamarays while attempting to save the life of civilian Rick Jones) in lieu of a more modern approach with elements such as genetic experimentation, gamarays and nanomites, domestic violence, and repressed emotions that combine to bring this cinematic and computer generated version of Marvel’s dark-haired green goliath to life.
I don’t buy it.
Green is still Green, whichever way you look at it.
