Unleashed (2005)
Directed by Louis Leterrier
Raised as a slave, Danny is used to fighting for his survival. In fact, his "master," Bart, thinks of him as a pet and goes as far as leashing him with a collar so they can make money in fight clubs, where Danny is the main contender. When Bart's crew is in a car accident, Danny escapes and meets a blind, kindhearted piano tuner who takes him in and uses music to free the fighter's long-buried heart.

What critics compared Unleashed to
I loved Leterrier's Unleashed , and there's a chase in the first half of The Incredible Hulk that reminded me in flashes of the director's sometime-affinity for flights across grimy rooftops.
After Ang Lee's more ambitious 2003 arty psychological take on the Marvel Comics Incredible Hulk series, we get a more straight-forward follow-up film from Louis Leterrier ("Transporter"/"Unleashed") that strips away anything Freudian and goes for the simplistic "POW" and "BAM" kick ass stuff of comic books.
"The Incredible Hulk," helmed by Louis Leterrier (2005's " Unleashed "), hasn't any of those characteristics.
French director Louis Leterrier ("The Transporter," "Unleashed") shows a natural affinity for the material.
The rest of us need compelling storytelling to keep engaged, and that's where director Louis Leterrier seems out of his league, having previously only worked on the minor action hits Unleashed and both of The Transporter films.
Directed by Louis Leterrier ( The Transporter , Unleashed ), The Incredible Hulk is a chase movie based largely off of the man-on-the-run scenario Hulk fans know so well from the classic Bill Bixby/Lou Ferrigno TV show.
