I'm a huge fan of the Perlman movies and the original comics, so I was sceptical about seeing this reboot - particularly as I was disappointed that there wouldn't be a third movie with Perlman in. But I throughly enjoyed this. I laughed out loud at a lot of the jokes. The dialogue was perfect!
Yes, the ending was predictable, but I expect that for a superhero origins story. And the Osiris Club were very cliche British, but it doesn't distract from the story line; it adds to the humour!
Milla was superb in her role and I loved her every scene. Feel free to bring her back for the sequel! And after a few minutes you forgot that it was David Harbour on screen - he was just Hellboy.
It was wonderful to see Daniel Dae Kim as Ben - and as sidekicks go he's a lot more practical than Abe (much as I love Abe) and I was so proud of Ed Skrein for passing up the role in favour of an Asian actor. We need more of this.
As far as the action sequences go - it's very full on with plenty of gore and blood and flying body parts.
If I'd paid attention to the critics, I wouldn't have gone to see this and I would have missed out.
If I could meet the people that made this, I'd give them a hug and say "thanks"! Because there is so much love in this.
Bring on the sequel!!
