Plot

Bruce Banner (Bana) endures a life without a past, yet filled with dreams. Adopted as a child, Bruce knows nothing about his parents and their story. Plagued by unexpected nightmares and teased by classmates, Bruce continually struggles with tumulous fits of embarrassment, anxiety and rage. As a genetic scientist studying the regenerative effects of gamma radiation on damaged tissue, Bruce wages an escalating battle with an unknown monster inside him. Catalysed by a freak lab accident, Bruce's inner conflict culminates when he becomes the most powerful being on the face of the earth - the Hulk. General 'Thunderbolt' Ross (Elliot) - backed by an army of tanks, helicopters and soldiers - aims to destroy the powerful and ever-growing Hulk. In this exquisitely told and brooding romantic tale, Banner - a hunted abomination - strives to mend his relationship with General Ross's daughter, Betty (Connelly), and uncover the answers to his enigmatic past.
