Good job with comic book inspiration.

Rating: 8/10 (24 April 2004)

Hellboy is a comedic, action, adventure that delivers. My wife and I enjoyed it thoroughly except one thing. The final battle ended way too soon. The make-up was wonderfully done. The special effects were just enough without over doing it. The actors seemed made for their roles. Ron Pearlman may not be Brad Pitt, but this movie was made for him as he has always had an unusual look to him. He fit the character perfectly. Abe Sapien they could have elaborated more on for those of us that do not know the comic. Though, he looked like a devil they really never made it clear if was the true son of Satan. Again, I apologize because I just saw the movie and know nothing about the comics. At any rate the movie is a great choice if you have not yet seen it.
