"Hellboy - The Rise of the Blood Queen" is a bloody brutal funny cult film.

This is a reboot, the director has changed, and the style of painting is obviously different. This is a combination of full screen plasma and prosthetic limbs, and the characters have also changed. CP9 Luqi, the last easter egg said that they found murlocs, so it feels more like a prequel to me. In addition to fighting monsters and upgrading, the three Hellboy movies actually revolve around a topic. In this human world, whether different things can be integrated into it. As Hellboy said in this movie, there must be a place in the world that makes Demons are not discriminated against. Compared with the previous two films, this film has a lot of bloody scenes. Hellboy fights the three giants, pig monsters search for the queen's stump, and the British hunt down Hellboy. And there are a lot of cool special effects in this episode, such as Hellboy completely riding a dragon and holding a fire sword, and the queen summons several large-scale skeleton bosses. The blood queen is so easy to hang up, it is really depressing enough. So apart from a few fight scenes, this film really doesn't have much to watch, and I always feel that Hellboy is one of those dead children who don't want others to pay attention to him, and care a lot about what others think of him.
