Stars off fast and furious but ends up limp and wanting

Rating: 7/10 (7 April 2004)

Just like many of you out there, I've seen many movies. Some have been good others have been ok and then you have the category of what was i thinking by coming to watch this junk, well after seeing the previews I began to think the same way, this movie is going to stink just as much as Dare Devil. I was hooked from the hoaky start up to the last 5 minutes of the movie which wasnt rushed and had ok acting considering it was an action/sci-fi movie.
Hellboys is the kind of movie you want to root for because it doesnt have the big name action heroes or big time nude scenes that alway entice men to the big screen, intead Del Toro decided to go with lesser known actor with great acting abilities. Ron Perlman was excellent and I was glad that he got the part it was a stroke of genius because Ron deserves it he is truely a great actor. I wish they had involved characters of abe and Liz more into the movie where they could have shown their superpowers more but it was not to be in this film, but maybe in the sequal if their is enough public interest in the film and I do believe there is.
My greatest grip (spoiler alert) is with the quick ending that sort of feels like an unsatisfied woman after sex. The money must have been running out because that was the shortest ending fight sceen that I have seen since Mike Tysons last fight. It was a great dissappointment to see an ending so horrible. The movie has some great funny sceens that gives this film the edge it needs to make it a good movie, Not a Great movie, but just a good movie. I rate this movie a 6.5 because of the bad ending but if you take out the last 3-5 minutes of the movie Id give this move a solid 7.5.

If you like to get away from reality and see a superhero kick but then this is your movie. Good movie go see it and enjoy.
PS. I may not be a great critic but I do know what I like and I dont often enjoy to many new movies because there just arent that many out there but i Did enjoy this one. Go big red.
