The Trial of the Incredible Hulk turns 35 years old this year, so we take a look at the Hulk and Daredevil team-up movie.
Fans have received several versions of their favorite jolly green giant over the years, but for many viewers over a certain age, the Hulk will always be two people: Bill Bixby and Lou Ferrigno. Two halves that make a whole, Dr. Bruc—er—Dr. David Banner, who was the focus of a hit 1978 show, a program that was arguably Marvel’s first real success in bringing their iconic characters to live-action.
Airing on NBC, the movie ran for around an hour and forty minutes, but it honestly feels longer without the commercials to break things up. The story is solid on paper, especially the first half, but the bigger problems are with what is promised in the title.
The origin they give him is close to what readers expect, other than how they clumsily shoehorned in the name coming from his police captain ally. I like that we see the “Daredevil Rulez” graffiti to show that he’s been doing this for a while, and many in the city support his vigilante activities.
This was the first live-action outing for Daredevil and Fisk, so it’s a shame that we didn’t get to see Hulk fight alongside and against them, respectively. There are good action moments in this, mostly involving people being thrown into things, but the real strength is the interactions between Murdock and Banner, seeing them relate as two very different people who genuinely have a lot in common and help each other with overcoming their personal issues.
