The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Personally, I'm a huge fan of the Planet Hulk series, I've read the main comic multiple times. My main beef with this story is the amount of events that've been skipped entirely, or done in the wrong order. Overall, I find this movie to be a chore to sit through.Now then, here be spoilers. 1. During the first initial scene, the Hulk felt a bit too weak. The insectoids almost incapacitated him! 2. The scene in the comics where Meik & Hulk get sold into slavery isn't established. This was an important scene to help build the world around them & introduce the character of Meik, along with his personality. 3. The scene in the colosseum was rather nice, but Lavin's death was too early. This resulted in Elloe not being able to have her rather nice story-arc, therefore making her kinda boring as a character. 4. Though this being more understandable, the fight scene where the Hulk & crew are in the Maw trying to survive is melded into the colosseum scene for time constraint. However, this scene actually helps build up the character of the Hulk, showing that he'd sacrifice himself in hot lava to try to fight for his friends. 5. The Warbound part seemed rather rushed, and they left out a major character/ possible love-interest (The no-name Brood from Broodworld), she was quite the voice of reason in the book, and she helped Meik in times of trouble. 6. The Red King seemed rather weak, & suffered to pose any real threat. In the comic he was maniacal, even being quoted when he (MAJOR SPOILER) purposefully released the Spikes, bombed an innocent village, and had memories from everyone that is partners with the Hulk as saying "What do you want from me? Tears? For these SLAVES? For these MONSTERS? Yes. I killed them. As is my right. As is my duty...As is my pleasure!". That quote alone can establish the malevolence of him, but in this he just seems like a rich snob. 7. The ending, this is my final strike against the movie (Aside from all the plot holes. :P). What happened to the very emotional, thought- provoking, and extremely memorable ending? Seriously (Once again, huge spoiler) in the end, the warp-core thing that was in the engine acts as a nuclear bomb, going off right as the Hulk has started a fresh, peaceful new world-order with his queen. It destroys everyone but Korg, Meik, Elloe, Hulk, Heroim, Ms. No-name Brood, and some civilians. Hulk has nothing left, his people, his child, his wife. All he has is rage, and he wonders why, why must the humans do everything wrong. Why is all my issues from them? Etc, after that, he boards his ship with the others & prepares for war against the humans. It was such a great ending, which is completely missing, and immensely makes the movie suffer.Overall, as an animated action movie, it's okay. As an adaptation of an amazing comic, nope. I say just skip the movie, & go buy the comic. :D

In recent years, the animated straight to video market has done much to rid itself of the stigma that "Direct to DVD" was a code word for "Awful". These new films are much more sophisticated than their predecessors, and make no mistake, 'Planet Hulk' is *not* a kids film. In fact, I'd say this was more violent than either of the two live-action 'Hulk' movies. Blood and death abound, and there aren't any lessons to offset it.With its dull animation, weak voice acting and uninspired dialog, 'Planet Hulk' may not reach the heights of some of the better titles to come down the line the last few years, but it's a serviceable distraction that should please Hulk fans. For everyone else, mileage may vary.

This story of the Hulk is the best I have come across even as a comic book collector. It would be a dream come true if you could have Frank Miller take this on with real actors, this could be one of the best comic book to movie adaptions ever. I think there could be a lot more dialogue and more character connections + portrayal combinated with real (non-computer animated) actors playing the parts of all the characters. Maybe even use a Mr. Olympia (Jay Cutler,Ronnie Coleman) or someone who is an actual human Hulk and give a real feel to the character unlike the other real life Hulk movies that have been put out (CRAP) They pulled it off on the Hulk TV show it gave a way better feel to watch a crappy actor like Lou Ferrigno play the part rather than a computer animated version. It's an easy enough role that almost anyone can pull it off if you look the part.If Arnold Schwarzenegger can play a kick ass Conan character, then I'm sure there are some HUGE meat heads that could pull it off well...it's all about the director! FRANK MILLER...MAKE PLANET HULK!
