Narrative

The narrative within 'Hancock' is a straight forward linear narrative, as the film is organised in a linear sequence. This film's linear narrative proceeds from the beginning through the middle to the end without deviations, usually tracing relationships of cause and effect, therefore showing that it is in a chronological order and has only one type of narrative. We follow 'Hancock' as he goes through his own day to day life, and the narrative shows his progression and urge to change who he is. However there is no sudden changes to the narrative such as flashbacks (e.g. 'Kill Bill'), we see one mans mission to be better person, this also raises enigmas such as can he really change?
