Default what's wrong with this movie scene?

I was watching the movie "Hancock" the other day. There is a scene where Hancock goes into a bank where there is a hostage situation. He quickly takes out 2 of the bad guys. But, the main bad guy has a "dead-man switch" and the bank employees are strapped to dynomite. If the bad guy's hand comes off the switch, they all blow up. He tells Hancock something like "You're gonna tear down the vault, get me all the money, then fly me and my money far away from here. If not, all these people are gonna die". To clearify: Hancock is like Superman. He can fly and has super-human strength.

why wouldn't that work? what's wrong with that plan?
(Hancock eventually disarms the guy in the bank)

Because eventually they will fly out of range of the trigger and Handcock will kick his butt and return the money?

I think myth busters does a ton of "this really does not happen in real life stuff" when they go after movies.

It was like that movie "2012" it needs to be in Universal studios as a ride.

not one thing in it was realistic.

as you can see in the movie Hancock, like throwing the kid up in the air and catching him. How did he not break every bone in his body as he caught him.

With all the computer generated effects, movies have become cartoons. I liked it better when movies were filmed on location, using real actors, explosions, cars ect. One of the things that really bugs me in modern movies is the "running away from the explosion" scene-just plain moronic.
