The Incredible Hulk Returns (1988 TV Movie)
3/10
Disappointing Reunion Film.
23 August 2013
Six years after the TV series was sadly canceled, with David Banner's fate unresolved, we got this return, so we fans should be happy right? Well, not really.

Bill Bixby returns of course, and picks up where he left off from 'A Minor Problem' without missing a beat. Lou Ferrigno is back as the Hulk, and is as impressive as ever. Jack Colvin returns for the last time(sadly) still trying to find his John Doe, and still falling short.

This time however, another Marvel Superhero appears...Thor. Huh? Thor? Really? The original series was grounded in reality, with no other superhero or villain aspects at all, so to include a fantastic, bordering on magical character like Thor is beyond silly, it's downright insulting. Actor Eric Kramer does give it his all, though.

Kenneth Johnson was not involved at all, and his absence denied this film any heart, and the whole tone of this just feels wrong.

A shame, but does have a familiar ending...
