Marvel may have publicly distanced itself from Ang Lee's version of Hulk, but that doesn't mean it's a bad film. It's a very brave film.
It's an art house/blockbuster hybrid that's as schizophrenic as its titular character. Using the film frame like a comic panel, adding wild transitions and an abundance of split screen effects made audiences uneasy. Ang broke the rules and for that he got criticized harshly, but cinema needs that kind of disruption and daring every now and again.The film crumbles under the weight of if its own weirdness long before the end, but it was a worthy effort. I may be alone in liking it better than The Incredible Hulk (2008) film that came after.

I like this one too, with the exception of a few bits here and there.
I always felt the people who dislike this movie like "flicks". The people who like this one like "films". :P
