For instance, a film called "The Trial of the Incredible Hulk" Unless you count one dream sequence that runs a little too long, then that's it. This felt like a completely missed opportunity to put David Banner and the Hulk on trial.
This could have been a very interesting commentary on the people who commit crimes that have been diagnosed with split or multiple personality disorders. I believe there could have been a lot of material to work off of in those regards and gave the audience something with much more depth to it in a time where comic book movies hadn't gone far down before.
But to be fair, that's not necessarily what the original series was all about. It had heart of course, but it wasn't known for its social commentary. The show, as well as the TV movies are a campy good time; albeit with a grounded and internally tormented lead character.
He flies off in an aircraft that I would have seen the Fantastic Four riding around in, which is a little too silly for how relatively grounded the film was being prior. Yes, it did have plenty of its campy moments but it never felt like a cartoon Other than that this was still enjoyable for what it is.
As long as you're not trying to take it too seriously then it shouldn't be hard to get into. Bill Bixby does yet another great job in the role of David Banner and shows that he did have some talent behind the camera as a director. It's always fun to see Lou Ferrigno pummeling some bad guys. And the Kingpin, played by John Rhys-Davies is obviously chewing some scenery.
In terms of villains, he isn't a very well developed character but at that point the Kingpin was known best for just being a big bald guy that runs crime from atop his tower so the actor did what he could to at least make him a little fun to watch.
So if this sounds like you could sit and have some mindless fun then here you go. I'm not impressed mercury4 10 December There are some very good scenes of this movie, but I said some. The rest of the movie is low budget crap. Another thing that bothers me about this movie is Dare Devil.
Who the hell asked for Dare Devil and how come we only see the Hulk three times in this movie. I saw this movie on television and taped it as a little boy. When I was little I loved the Hulk. He took the place of Superman for me.
The action scenes and some of the script to this movie were just disappointing. One scene that does stick in my head is the trial scene. The best part of the Incredible Hulk is Lou Ferrigno. He plays the part very well.
Seeing him in that make up is just a cool sight. So as you can see I was and still am a big Incredible Hulk fan. But this isn't one of the best. This film is the second TV movie in the Incredible Hulk TV movie trilogy, along with the others is simply perfect, I'm what you call a die hard or over obsessive fan of the Incredible Hulk, and I have these movies and the tv series to thank for that.
The joy I have with these movies are due to that fact that I watched them with my Father, my hero. And that gives me a massive nostalgia for them, I can't praise Bill Bixby and Lou Ferrigno enough, I feel like a broken record.
Rex Smith was very enjoyable as Matt Murdock the blind lawyer from Hell's Kitchen, the masked crime fighter Daredevil. I freakin love his black on black outfit, it's so badass. I love these movies and always will. The Hulk Stays Strong Second TV movie after the cancellation of the Incredible Hulk series holds well. In this film Bruce Banner heads to New York still trying to find a cure for his transformation spells into the Hulk.
In the process he is arrested for the attempted rape of a young woman in a subway in fact he actually helped her. He is given Matt Murdock as his lawyer and with the help of his alter-ego Daredevil he sets out to prove his innocence and rescue the woman who has been kidnapped.
As part of a plan to release a Daredevil TV show Universal thought it would be good to see if audiences will enjoy Daredevil. Oh well the show never went further than this, but it still is a pretty good original appearance for Daredevil. Followed by The Death of the Incredible Hulk. Daredevil Meets The Hulk Okay this is Universals second attempt at starting a new series. In the Incredible Hulk Returns , they tried to start a Thor series.
Now, they were attempting to make a Daredevil series. Well anyway, it's been a while since the last film. David Banner is no longer trying to find a cure, but goes from place to place working at different areas. After attempting to protect a young woman from a couple of Fisk's goons David is locked up. With no record of being alive, lawyer Matt Murdock takes his case, hoping that it will lead to proof that Fisk is the Kingpin.
At first David hesitates, in fear that he will Hulk-up again, but when he discovers that Matt Murdock isn't only blind but a vigilante crime fighter named the Daredevil he eventually gives in. The movie is okay for TV standards, if this was released theatrically I would say it would plummit in the box office. The ending of the film is a sure bet that the producer's were looking to continue the Daredevil story. I wish they would've.
Many don't like the outfit the Daredevil wears, but in the comic book that is what he wore. Stan Lee has his first in many Marvel movies cameos as a juror in David's dream.
Bill Bixby has certainly mapped out the character of David Banner and how closed up a man like him would be by now beginning of the film, he is completely shut out from everyone.
Lou Ferrigno returns in his role as the misunderstood creature. The biggest factor missing is Jack Colvin's character Jack Mcgee, who we last saw saying that he will continue to look for the Hulk.
But, we never see or hear from him again. Anchor Bay Entertainment has released this film as a 2pak DVD with The Incredible Hulk Returns , featuring two documentary's; one of the documentary's explains the history of the Hulk and the other documentary tells Lou Ferrigno's bodybuilding biography.

Alternate versions The UK video version was cut by 15 secs by the BBFC to edit shots of a butterfly knife and to remove an ear-clap during a fight scene.
The cuts were restored for the rated Starz DVD release. User reviews 29 Review. Top review. Yes and no Of all episodes I know this is a feature film , this one will come across as quite grim. On the whole, this is the only episode where viewers will see the Hulk 'extra' angry. However oh is this good news? It showed David's real fear of being attacked in a train, and when he turned into the Hulk, it was the first time we saw the Hulk with the intent to kill.
He was ultra angry. He was ripping the seats off and snarling like a rottweiler! Specifically during a scene at a Court, Banner was at his Hulking-best he was even choking one of the lawyers with his hand - one of the many scenes deleted by ITV.
After it being aired on Five, the restored savageness could now justify the crap story. When ITV played it they literally killed off the point of the story Details Edit. Release date May 7, United States. United States. Der unheimliche Hulk vor Gericht.
British Columbia, Canada. Technical specs Edit. This was the only time in the history of "The Incredible Hulk" live-action television series, and its three television movies, that the Hulk wore his trademark purple pants from the comic books. It occurs in the dream sequence, when David Banner is being questioned on the witness stand, and he ends up changing into the Hulk.
It was decided by the producers to change the Daredevil costume from red to black, because they felt that an all-red suit would not translate well, and look good in a television film. Daredevil's co-Creator, Stan Lee , was publicly critical of the all-black Daredevil costume for this movie, as he felt the suit appeared to let the bad guys know of his blindness. John Rhys-Davies accepted the role of Wilson Fisk, a.
The Kingpin, without knowing that the character is bald and clean-shaven in the comics. When he learned this, he offered to shave his head, as the producers were unable to get him a bald skullcap. However, they declined, and Rhys-Davies appeared with a different look. Additionally, Fisk is never referred to as "The Kingpin" in the film.
This movie was meant to serve as a back-door pilot for a Daredevil television series, but the series itself ended up never being produced. Stan Lee was disappointed that he had to be replaced by a stuntman, when his character leaps out of the jury box. This film contains the first live-action appearances of the Marvel Comics characters, Daredevil and The Kingpin.
