Product Description
A whole new world of hurt! He was a monster, impossible to control, too dangerous to ignore. So Earth’s mightiest heroes exiled him into outer space. But now THE INCREDIBLE HULK crash-lands on the distant planet SAKAAR, ruled by the tyrannical RED KING. Sold into slavery, the Hulk becomes the planet’s mightiest gladiator—but his new masters get more than they bargained for when he forges a bond of brotherhood with his fellow fighters: crafty insectoid Miek, ruthless rock-man Korg, ex-shadow pirest Hiroim, and the noble-born rebel Elloe. Unlike Earth, the desperate people of Sakaar believe a monster is just what they need. But will the Hulk be the one to save their world…or destroy it?Customer Reviews
Quintessential HulkPlanet Hulk is a very good distillation of an excellent story arc published by Marvel Comics from April 2006 - June 2007 in Incredible Hulk vol. 3 #92-105 and Giant-Size Hulk vol. 2 #1.
The animation is as good an adaption as can be expected when trying to keep the story self-contained. Planet Hulk is a solid Hulk story with plenty of action and a touch of intrigue. I gave it 4/5 stars since quite a bit of defanging was done to the original story. That being said, the core remains true to the characters.
Watch this animation, if you like the Hulk you will not be disappointed. Afterwards, do yourself a favor and read one of the print versions of Planet Hulk.
Hulk SMASH!!!!!
Planet Hulk is when Hulk is sent to another planet by the Illuminati & Iron Man but where is Reed Richards a.k.a. Mr. Fantastic? Hulk has a rage that makes him destructive so with that the ship took a turn for another planet. On this planet Hulk is a slave with other super characters by a tyrant ruler for the purpose of fighting for their freedom. I like the fight scenes especially the fight scene that have Beta Ray Bill for Beta Ray Bill could have used the help of the Silver Surfer. Hulk is matured, intelligent, an hero in love and destructive in this movie with an happy ending. Hulk SMASH!!!!!
Dissapointing
If you have not read the comics first than this movie may be more to your liking. I read the comics before viewing the movie. I loved the story, and could not wait to see the movie based on it.
When I watched the movie, I was in awe on how it was nothing like the comic. Yes the basic plot line is the same, though they changed so much.
No Silver Surfer
No Maw training camps
No Brood
Miek does not transform
The list goes on for all the changes in the story.
I would only recommend this movie if you have not yet read the comic series.
Planet Hulk, certainly unique
Having never read the comic book, I have to say it helped to hear the audiocommentary and watch the special features. This is, however, a great story and I thought the way it was put together came across well on the screen. I didn't understand the Hulk from this movie, because in previous shows it was a screeming non-intellgent Hulk, whereas this one actually displayed non-angry personality. Overall, a great show and a good buy.
Thanks for reading.
Hulk OUT!
I really enjoyed this animated film. It is very well done and the production is Awesome. This team loves comics and respects their audience. Being an adventure cartoonist myself I was very happy to see some good story telling a nice film well made.
Bravo to the cartoonists involved. I can't wait to see what you guys come up with next.
