She-Hulk XXX (3¾ Stars)


The story takes place just as fans of the 1980's Marvel comics series remember it. Jennifer Walters is a successful attorney. During preparation for a trial she's shot and receives a blood transfusion from the only person with a compatible blood group: her cousin Bruce Banner. This turns her into a green monster, but of a different type to the Hulk. The main difference is that while in green form Jennifer retains her intelligence. Her green self is actually beautiful, in a muscular way, and Jennifer acts in a sexy, self-confident way. She can control her change from one form to the other, it isn't triggered by anger.

I've been waiting for this film for a long time. Ex-WWE wrestler Chyna is perfect for the role of She-Hulk. Director Axel Braun says she was born for the role, and I agree. I expected a 5 star film, but I have a few complaints.

1. Jennifer's moral integrity is tarnished in this film, unlike in the comics. She uses her sexual wiles to gain advantage in her court cases.

2. Chyna seemed somehow bored during her sex scene with Eric Masterton. She definitely wasn't on top form for the film.

3. I was disappointed that She-Hulk's breasts remained covered throughout the film, even during her sex scenes. Anyone who knows Chyna knows that her breasts are stunning, large, heavy and well formed.

Apart from these faults, my congratulations to Axel Braun on another well made film. He understands continuity better than those responsible for the mainstream Marvel films. There were guest appearances by the Fantastic Four and Hawkeye.
