Review of Hellboy (2004) by Rick Groen for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) — 05 Aug 2005
It's a treat because, making no apologies for the source material, director Guillermo del Toro lets his picture gorge on power bars of pop energy, sugared with sprinkles of playful humour, and, at least twice, laced with a visual style so piercingly keen that horror morphs into beauty.
Not bad for a pulpy outing.
