Looking for a way to recharge after an intense year of school, sports and life? Step into the unreal world of the superhero-courtesy of two blockbuster flicks coming this summer. 

The Incredible Hulk

Release Date: June 13

Starring: Edward Norton, Tim Roth

Synopsis: Dr. Bruce Banner [Norton] lives a life of solitude, as he’s committed to finding a cure for the mutation that turns him green with anger, which the U.S. military wants to take advantage of. A washed-up soldier, Emile Blanskey [Roth], injects himself with the same mutant serum that affected Banner to become more dangerous and violent than the Hulk himself. Banner must then choose between maintaining a life under the radar and becoming the hero he knows he is.

The Dark Knight

Release Date: June 18

Starring: Christian Bale, Heath Ledger

Synopsis: Batman [Bale] rid Gotham City of the hallucinogen-toting Scarecrow. His crime cleanup worked for months, until a criminal mastermind known only as The Joker [Ledger] gets in on the game. This diabolical villain is no joke, though, trading in balloons and water flowers for knives and guns to wreak havoc on the city. And no one’s laughing when the caped crusader’s new nemesis pushes him closer to killer than savior.
