That weird car chase scene drug on way too long, and in some shots the CGI used for Denzel's car looks like a cutscene from GTA.

It felt like there were entire missing scenes also...the one cat they interrogated killed himself after hearing the name of the girl that Denzel accidentally killed. They never showed anything that would lead to any kind of connection there...it's like they missed shooting a flashback showing Denzel interrogating him for that girls death and trying to pin it on him or something. I don't know, but the way it's edited they counted on the audience to just make something up to explain it. And that's just one example of something that felt missing.

Between this script passing through the hands of multiple directors, and being edited during Covid, it feels like there were parts of the story in Hancock's head that he just forgot the audience didn't know about.
