The best comic book adaption I have seen

Rating: 9/10 (9 April 2004)

What where the people doing complaining expecting ?.
This is a movie to watch with a beer and a cigar.
Do not worry about the historical accuracy of some of the 'cod' mythology, IT'S ENTERTAINMENT.
The director has done a fantastic job of bringing the cool of Hellboy to the big screen without relying on pure special effect.
If you liked Steve McQueen in The Great Escape - think of Hellboy as his really big, really ugly, really tough, even cooler big brother.
I only hope this becomes a series (without Joel Schumaker), although HB isn't the sort of hero you are going to see on many breakfast cartons or lunchboxes.
