Here are some comments reviewer Bill Muller had to say on the special effects of The Hulk:
Quote:
Then there's the other big thing: Does the entirely computer-generated Hulk look real?
Well, of course not. He looks like a reasonable special effect; that is to say, he does not look like a cartoon.
But when the Hulk shows up on screen, it's like watching King Kong or a dinosaur from Jurassic Park. He's not real, and we know it. But that doesn't matter so much. Despite the ever-improving skill of computer artists, audiences are still willing to accept a bit of chicanery here and there.

Here's a couple of comments on Gollum written when TTT came out:
Quote:
Gollum's "performance" is incredible. There hasn't been a digital character display such a range of human characteristics ever; he's great!

Quote:
...Andy Serkis, who provides the voice to the most convincing CGI character ever created, Gollum. It is safe to say Gollum is, in fact, more powerful and interesting than any of the beloved non-human Star Wars characters, with the exception of possibly Yoda.

Here is a short comment on what someone had to say on the Hulk as comparing to Gollum before The Hulk came to theaters:
Quote:
There's also something deeply digital about this Hulk to me - he appears to be missing the seamless integration that made Gollum work so well.

Obviously, Gollum is still the best CGI character out there.
