Hellboy
I read Hellboy back in the day, as a teen i loved it, when i saw the film i was lukewarm. The second film was what i wanted the first film to be, now i love both. Was anyone asking for a new Hellboy? Yes, yes they were, but with Del Toro and Perlman....well Del Toro is busy and Perlman is up there in age. So okay, recast and get a new director, easy right? Nope. This is a new version and David Harbour is well cast but he shouts too much which isn't his fault but the directors, and that is just the tip. This is an awkwardly edited film with odd pacing, forced FUCKS, unneeded gore and a mess of a plot. We didn't need a better version of the comics, cause we had that already.There were some decent moments, Thomas Haden Church's scene and the "6 months later" bit, but all the rest was a dud. I didn't hate this film it just is a film that exist.
