The Incredible Hulk was action packed. Unlike Ang Lee's version the story of this movie adhered more closely to the comic story. He battled a real villain instead of his father. There were no Hulk-like dogs, and he performed signature Hulk moves instead of running around the desert like he was in a kung-fu movie. The origin story was closer to the Ultimate Hulk, but nuclear testing feels a little out dated.
Following the mythology allowed for some really fantastic tie-ins. Tony Stark is mentioned (and makes a small appearance) Nick Fury and SHIELD are mentioned, and Captain America is alluded to when they start to discuss the super-soldier program. There were also some cameos. Stan Lee as a radiation victim, Lou Ferrigno as a security guard, and even the late Bill Bixby (bruce banner from the old tv show) makes an appearance on one of the shows Bruce Banner is watching.
It was fun, loud, and chaotic.
