Planet Hulk (浩克星) is 2010 animated film from the Marvel Animation Studios. The film is based on the hugely popular comic book series of the same name from 2006.
The Hulk is sent in a space ship to a distant planet by the Illuminati (Iron Man, Mister Fantasic, Doctor Strange, and Androd - film version). On the way to a planet that is livable, Hulk starts to smash and sends the space craft off course into a worm hole. The worm hole sends the Hulk to a planet called Sakaar. Sakaar is filled with many different races and is captured as a slave. As a slave, he's sent in as a gladiator. The Hulk proceeds to SMASH, but also show a more "human" side to this incarnation. In the end, Hulk saves the planet from the existing monarchy. Thusly named, Planet Hulk.
Marvel animation has done a great job of putting out a good PG-13 type animated film every film since 2006. This one is no exception. The animation is based on "American" standards so the detail and action lines are not anime like. But I liked it more for the storyline than the animation.
A must watch for you Marvel fanboys. Even if you are not an Hulk fan.
BTW - I came up with the Chinese name. 浩克星 is "hul-ke" planet vs. Planet Hulk.
