And Lee's 2003 'Hulk' is the only film that captures the character's horrifying reality.
Ang Lee is arguably one of the greatest directors to make a superhero film. Given his eclectic, widely varied filmography, from the timeless Brokeback Mountain and Sense & Sensibility to The Ice Storm and Life of Pi, you'd think that if he made a superhero film, it would be one of the greatest ever made, right? Sadly, that isn't what happened, as his 2003 film Hulk was widely dismissed as a failed experiment, a self-serious drag trying too hard to be a Greek tragedy.
The first time that Bruce fully transforms into the Hulk, he experiences an avalanche of memories that encapsulate his relationship problems with Betty Ross, who's more than just Hulk's girlfriend, including the visceral images of his mom racing to hide him from his dad while his dad brandishes a kitchen knife.
The MCU Mishandled The Incredible Hulk One of the big problems with other versions of the Hulk is that they don't feel all that terrible or monstrous, as if they save their most dangerous urges for cool poses and make sure it only destroys the bad enemies.
The Existential Horror Explored in 'Hulk' With all of these moments of more childish behavior mixed in with his usual rage, it underlines the constant existential nightmare that is the existence of the Hulk. Imagine being an adult, forced to transform into an even larger, unimaginably-jacked person when the worst traumatic memories of your life get triggered, combined with the worst anger issues and worse self-control.
