Guillermo gives fire and brimstone a new meaning

Rating: 8/10 (7 March 2005)

Starring Ron Perlman, Rupert Evans, Doug Jones, John Hurt, Karel Roden, Selma Blair. Directed by Guillermo Del Toro.
Based on another marvel comic book Guillermo most likely directs the best movie he ever made. Since this was not his first comic book movie after doing Blade 2 with Wesley Snipes as the star, he must have some experience with comic book movies in this particular movie his true director identity was not only show but proved. Ron Perlman after doing Alien Resurrection (The worst of the four by the way) in which Sigourney is the eighth Ripely he stars as Hellboy a bad ass demon hunter traveling around in a garbage truck with Abe Sapien (Jones) a mermaid or fish of sorts with a high intellect. As soon as a new body guard or so Rupert Evans (Myers) joins the team to help Hellboy he at first is disliked but soon learns the ropes and finds the inner peace and sensuality of him along with fighting old dead Nazis and watching Hellboy beat up some giant monsters. Hellboy is most likely Guillermo's best film he ever did and maybe some pity him for that but I applaud him for making and giving the true identity of a marvel comic book hero. My final rating 8/10.
