Hancock (Smith) is Los Angeles' own superhero, but the residents of the City Of Angels just wish he would go away. Over the years Hancock has saved many an Angelino's life, but he takes no notice of the carnage of crumbling buildings and crashed cars he leaves in his wake—his most recent "good deed" cost the city $9 million in rebuilding costs. When Hancock saves Public Relations Agent Ray Embrey (Bateman) from being quashed by an oncoming train, Ray decides to give Hancock a bit of a professional image makeover, which will soon have the good citizens of the city proud to call Hancock their own. (Stacey Pendry)
