When I watched it, I thought, if this movie is a single-episode animation funded by Netflix, the style of the painting fits the red and black color scheme of the comic itself, and then you can find the original actors to dub it. The reputation and effect may be much better than the current movie. .
There are still some things in the story of this film itself. The story of the blood queen at the beginning is about hell, witch, King Arthur, Merlin, and Hellboy. Well, the ring match at the beginning was originally the most important opening scene of the whole film, but it turned out that Hellboy's laughter and scolding was careless, there was no big scene and no exciting action design, and it was confusing to watch. , from an inexplicable big bat to lead the main line. Then began a slightly suspenseful plot. A silly and cute troll is actually not very able to hold the scene, but the later "Papa Ya Karma" is more interesting in both image and background. This monster is also in John Wick. As mentioned in the article, the scenes she appeared in basically established that the film basically swam on the edge of the 18th ban. This film is more bloody and disgusting than the top version, and it is not that kind of black humorous disgust, or pure disgust.
This time the casting is actually just okay. What's worse is the foreshadowing and design of the characters. I feel that there is really no need to spend a lot of time telling the origin stories of the characters. Isn't it good to let these new characters look handsome first, and the results are the most handsome. part at the end of the credits. It's too late for the Korean guy in "Lost" to reveal his identity, and a big cat doesn't look so "powerful" under the dance of demons. The ability and expression of the psychic girl are also disgusting, but it is difficult to become a fighting force. Instead, the handsome girl at the end of the film becomes a hit girl. How good this setting was at the beginning. The gyro version is to let other characters show their abilities handsomely, and then slowly tell their past, which is much more entertaining. Mira's performance was quite satisfactory, and there were not too many action scenes she was most proud of in the final battle. The "Resident Evil" hit sister this time became the character with the least action scenes.
The scene where Hellboy was kidnapped by a human was a bit of a joy. A group of so-called British knights really dressed like cosplay, and since they planned to kill the protagonist, it was just a child's play. Wonderful paragraph, and then let this group of people inadvertently attract more powerful trolls. This paragraph is a good fight in the whole film, and it was also used in the preview to attract attention. Unfortunately, the latter fight is basically gone. There is still a mermaid egg at the end of this film, but it is estimated that the box office will not play.
The best part of this film, except for the trio at the end of the film, is the amazing night walk in hell in the trailer. The monsters in that part can be taken out and placed in the main film, so that the film will not be so fluttering. I don't know what the director and screenwriter thought. The characters in Hellboy who may still be spinning tops are so unforgettable, fire girl, murloc, German head of electronic tubes, Nazi mechanical ninjas, monkeys and princesses in the second part, and even the monster market, these things are actually gone. . Like I said at the beginning, maybe in the future, Netflix or Amazon will fund a Hellboy animation to make this IP come alive again.
