Summary: Go get 'em, Red
Comment: Working with a near perfect balance of action, humor and charm, the first of the Hellboy series to reach the big screen is a highly entertaining flick. While Ron Perlamn's effective performance as the gruff but warm hearted red monster centers the film, he is surrounded by a phalanx of supporting actors that give "Hellboy" its broadened success.

In particular, John Hurt as Hellboy's father figure caretaker, Dr Bloom, exudes a strong intelligence and sense of purpose to avoid his character being a scientist cardboard cutout. Rupert Evans plays a befuddles new handler, newly exposed to the top-secret paranormal agency that Hellboy dwells in. Add some angry Nazis and one p-o'd rasputin who want to destroy the world, and you have a firecracker of a fun film.

Written and directed by Guillermo Del Toro, the script pops at all the right moments all while adding character touches. The action sequences are a rollercoaster of thrill and scare (and the box of kittens is a hoot), along with a terrific visual sense. Even Jeffrey Tambor's sourpuss gets a good lesson in accepting the unusual before the film ends. For fans of the resurgent comic book movie genre, "Hellboy" hits all the right notes.

Summary: Pleasantly surprised
Comment: The picture quality was very good although better in Hellboy 2. The audio used the surrounds often but once again Hellboy 2 made even better us of the surrounds. After watching this I decided to get Hellboy 2 and I'm glad I did. They are both enjoyable movies

Summary: One of the best looking blu ray discs out there - and a good movie
Comment: I love Hellboy. I have it on dvd. But this blu-ray is how it needs to be seen. The picture is stunning. I would call this blu-ray "demo quality". If you want to show off your high def set up, pop this blu-ray disc in. The sound is great too. But man, that picture. If you are a fan of this film and have it on dvd, and have a hi def blu-ray set up but aren't sure you want to buy this movie again... don't worry, it's worth it.

From visionary writer/director Guillermo del Toro (director of Blade II, The Devil's Backbone) comes Hellboy, a supernatural action adventure based on Mike Mignola's popular Dark Horse Comics series of the same name. Born in the flames of hell and brought to Earth as an infant to perpetrate evil, Hellboy (Ron Perlman) was rescued from sinister forces by the benevolent Dr. Broom (John Hurt), who raised him to be a hero. In Dr. Broom's secret Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense, Hellboy creates an unlikely family consisting of the telepathic "Mer-Man" Abe Sapien (Doug Jones) and Liz Sherman (Selma Blair), the woman he loves who can control fire. Hidden from the very society that theyprotect, they stand as the key line of defense against an evil madman who seeks to reclaim Hellboy to the dark side and use his powers to destroy mankind.
