Think this will become a great comedylike Superhero Movie.

Will Smith as an homeless vagabound who brings more destruction than helping with his superpowers.
I watched the US Tralier but need to say that the German is much better with more funny scenes.
Cant wait to see this Movie on the big screen. :-)

This definitely looks interesting; not your typical super hero movie. I love the bit with the whale. With Will Smith in the lead it's sure to be a success at the box office. Will Smith is critic-proof.

That may be stretching it. I think it's a really funny premise, but early reviews don't exactly indicate box-office gold:

The masses almost always ignore what critics have to say. People love Will Smith, and will flock to anything he's in. Now this particular movie might not make as much as some of his past films but that's because its unusual premise might turn some people off.

Yeah, but the folks over at AICN are the movie geeks. It's not a site for paid critics, it's a spoilers site that gets advanced looks at movies from regular people invited to prescreenings and the like. Most of the time I find that, at least for me, they do pretty accurate reviews.

And yeah, critics can be way off about movies that end up being popular (which this'll surely be because of Smith), but this movie looks like it might be actually just a poor movie, popular or not. I hope I'm wrong, though, because like I said, it does sound interesting in concept.

In germany not all Movies with Will Smith are running very good like Wild Wild West
Iam Legend wasnt a big blockbuster in germany,too .Nearly the same story like 28 Days later.which was here a big success.
