Description
Source : Amazon.com
A whole new world of hurt! He was a monster, impossible to control, too dangerous to ignore. So Earth’s mightiest heroes exiled him into outer space. But now THE INCREDIBLE HULK crash-lands on the distant planet SAKAAR, ruled by the tyrannical RED KING. Sold into slavery, the Hulk becomes the planet’s mightiest gladiator—but his new masters get more than they bargained for when he forges a bond of brotherhood with his fellow fighters: crafty insectoid Miek, ruthless rock-man Korg, ex-shadow pirest Hiroim, and the noble-born rebel Elloe. Unlike Earth, the desperate people of Sakaar believe a monster is just what they need. But will the Hulk be the one to save their world…or destroy it?

4 2010-02-11 Simply Smashing Inspired by Greg Pak's 2006-2007 arc in the "Incredible Hulk" comic book, the "Planet Hulk" DVD finds ol' greenjeans exiled to an alien world where he's forced to compete in gladiatorial combat. Eventually, Hulk ends up leading a ragtag group of gladiators, fighting to overthrow the planet's evil Red King.

The movie races along like a runaway freight train, with plenty of SMASH and several very surprising emotional beats. Two of those beats were spectacularly dark; things that fit the story, but I honestly can't believe they went for...

The movie stands on its own. But I hope this DVD does well, because I'd love to see a sequel.
1 2010-02-09 Disappointing When i heard this was getting released i was really excited, Planet Hulk and World War Hulk were some of the best stories i've read in a long time, and i thought that, with the freedom that animation allows, this was going to be as epic as the books...it's not!!
Everything about this is lacklustre, from design to voice acting, none of it hits the mark. There was, to my mind, no reason to change and eliminate plot points for the sake of the films pacing, it feels too short and cobbled together. I'm going to not bother with Marvel animation any more, too many times i've come away disappointed at the final product. I'll stick with D.C. for animated movies, everyone of them has been a joy to watch.
4 2010-02-08 much better than I expected! i'm not a fan of all the recent animated features from Marvel or DC for that matter...

but this one was pretty good.

the stand out ones were the Avengers ones, but this seems to pick up shortly after the second avengers left off...

the story line had twists and turns and thoroughly took me in.

I found it totally enjoyable.
5 2010-02-08 Great Fun! Marvel Rulz! Animated films like this one are the reason why Marvel is king. Honestly, most agree that the Marvel Universe is the richest, most entertaining fictional realm ever imagined by man. Now, it's good to see live action and animated features that can match or at least come close enough to the magnitude of the books. While not as complex as the reads themselves, these animated features carry their own level of satisfaction. Just like "Hulk VS" before it, this film delivers the goods. It's more than fun to see Hulk in a gladiatorial setting. It's a blast to see Beta Ray Bill pop in from out of nowhere! When you compare these animated films to their only real competition, it clear to see that Marvel still has the advantage. Planet Hulk makes Green Lantern: Fist Flight look sick by comparison. Hulk VS outclasses the mindless Superman/Batman: Public Enemies and so on. When the foundation is stronger, the things built upon it will be stronger as well.

Hulk is the strongest there is... and so is Marvel. Bring on the Thor animated project!
5 2010-02-07 Entertaining I've watched this twice now. I liked it the first time, liked it even more the second. It's a fun, entertaining story with good action and some interesting characters (Caera the Oldstrong was great.) A couple things weren't fully explained (the Hulk's intelligence, the control discs,) but niether were glaring enough to take away from the enjoyment.
