entertaining

Rating: Null/10 (6 August 2004)

i enjoyed watching this film, it's a great summer movie. the only complaint i have is that i thought it dragged at the end, but thankfully they stopped before all the action got repetitive. the action, by the way, was otherwise always very well done and suspenseful. and can i just say that i thought Kroenen stole the show? don't get me wrong, hellboy is great, but that guy's skills with the knives was quite distracting.
the romance in this movie was well played out too- they delved into it enough so that we cared, but not too much so that we got sick of it- it remained simple enough to be touching. the humor and the fight sequences really made the film though, but i'm sure everyone got something different out of it, and that's whats so great about hellboy. see it!
