I've seen it twice now... loved it.

So many homages to the comics and the television show.

I loved Iron Man also, and while Stark's "tech-tinkering" made the other movie more "fun" (as did Stark's "fly-by-the-seat-of-his-pants" mentality), this movie (and Norton) portrayed Bruce Banner's tortured existence spot-on as well.

(Yeah, as others pointed out as well.. my one gripe is his scars not healing. I was watching the film yesterday, staring
at the (relatively large) scars on him waiting for them to close up and heal, and they didn't. Really a minor gripe,
though.)

The "Hulk Smash" scene and the thunderclap he does brought nothin' but smiles to my face. I teared up a little too... great movie, overall. Iron Man didn't have the emotional weight this movie possesses (but then, Stark's "love interest" in the movie isn't a love interest at all, and Bruce has Betty).

I saw this yesterday and I really enjoyed it.

I liked the fact they chose to align it more closely to the TV show than the last movie. It seems to go well with Peter David's "wandering" storylines as well.

Thumbs Up
Brutal fight sequences
Marvel U references (Samson, The Leader, the 'surprise guest' at the end)
Norton was great as Banner

Thumbs Down
Not really a fan of a CGI Hulk
Abomination didnt look right, wrong color, no ears
Make the Hulk talk more

Enjoyed it more than Iron Man actually, mainly because my expectations were really low for this.

I agree. Hulk had more action than IM. better fight scenes and violence.

Definitely.

When I was watching this, I was thinking, this was the only thing that was missing from Iron Man, a prolonged kick ass action scene with a decent villain.
