Review of Hellboy

Hellboy (2004)
2/10
Boring nonsense
10 April 2004
This film was seriously overrated by the critics. It was loud, the editing was too choppy, the action scenes were poorly choreographed. There were only a couple of monsters, both of which were pretty uninteresting. The only marginally interesting villian was the masked wind-up Nazi assassin with swords. None of them seemed to put up much of a fight. It seemed like a few marines would've done a better job taking them out than Hellboy and the bumbling paranormal agents.

The script was lousy. Cliched, predictable (except when it made absolutely no sense). Humour was incredibly cheesy, and felt like it had been translated from another language losing the, uh, humour in translation.

Recommended only to 10 year olds who've never seen a movie before. Actually scratch that, watch something better instead.
