Hellboy is a 2019 movie based off the dark horse comic book of the same name. It has no relation to the Guillermo Del Toro movies. This isn’t going to be a comparison, it’s just going to critique Hellboy 2019 on its own terms. David Harbour plays hellboy and Ian McShane plays professor Broom. Milla Jovovich plays Nimue, the blood queen.
Hellboy is adapted from the comics but very directly from the comics. There are a lot of set pieces that are from the comics but in terms of the movies plot feel very random and thrown in for thrills. The plot revolves around Hellboy possibly bringing the end of the world through Nimue’s hand. Since Hellboy is rated r, the movie has a lot of blood and cursing. But it’s not fully necessary because it doesn’t seem natural for the movies plot. The cursing at least doesn’t feel natural and the blood is a computer effect, so it doesn’t look as good.
Hellboy works in the B.P. R. D. or Bureau of Paranormal Research and Development. There are new characters like Alice who can talk to the dead and they can communicate with the living through her. They literally come out of her mouth and it’s creepy and cool looking. While Hellboy 2019 isn’t terrible, it’s kinda forgettable and won’t be remembered in 10 years. 🍔🍔
