One Hell of a movie...

Rating: Null/10 (10 October 2004)

...and although I have not heard of the character or read a single page of the comic before Mr. Del Toro announced that he would helm this piece.
It is a interesting piece, with a strong sense of visual style that consisted out of brilliant make up effects, incredible sets and audience friendly cinematography from Director of Photography
Guillermo Navaro who also did the cinematography on another hell hero movie, spawn and Desperado.
Yes, I was impressed by Guillermo Del toro's work and vision on this movie and he managed to convince me that Hellboy is a more humane character than most of the characters in this film and that (if blended tastefully) comedy can work in these kind of films.
The plot was decent and everything worked well, though the ending came a bit fast...but it wasn't terrible.
For a $80 mil movie this impressed the "HELL" out of me and I wonder why other movies such as Catwoman with budgets of $110 and more was so terribly crap.
