Review of Hellboy (2019) by Semicullen — 12 Apr 2019

I really enjoyed this movie. Was it exactly like the comic? No. Was it like the Del Toro movies? No. But it was fun, fast, and had some really good moments. Of course, if you're a longtime fan of the comics, I imagine, like me, you were wondering why some of the changes were made, but that doesn't make the movie bad.

The first three quarters were excellent. The final act was a bit hokey, but that's a problem with almost all comic book movies. The post credit sequences were fantastic, but it's a shame that the projected box office means were not likely to see the fruits of that final end credits sequence play out.
