Hellboy Movie 2019 Review: A Soul-Crushing Dumpster Fire   INTRODUCTION: The Worst Superhero Film Ever? Welcome to our Hellboy Movie 2019 Review. While taking notes for this piece, I realized that the movie is impressive in only one way. It made me question the futility of time. Why was I wasting my short life re-watching this atrocious piece of trash? This might be the worst film I have ever seen. Frankly, it took the crown of “worst superhero movie” from Fan4stic. This reboot is downright insulting to fans. I still cannot believe they chose this garbage over a third Guillermo del Toro film with Ron Perlman. CHARACTERS: A Whiny Hero and Sleepwalking Actors A major part of any Hellboy Movie 2019 Review is the cast. David Harbour had big shoes to fill. In his defense, he tries his best with extremely poor material. However, the writers turned Big Red into a moaning, whiny teenager. Furthermore, the excessive makeup prevents Harbour from emoting. His mouth opens and closes like a puppet while shoddy ADR dialogue plays over it. The supporting cast is equally insufferable. Alice gives one of the worst performances I have ever witnessed in a comic book movie. Meanwhile, Ian McShane clearly sleepwalked through his role for an easy paycheck. Milla Jovovich plays a stereotypical witch and brings nothing new to the table. TECHNICALS: Cheap CGI and Horrible Editing In this Hellboy Movie 2019 Review, we have to talk about the visuals. I have seen cheap CGI before, but this takes the cake. Almost every creature looks like an unfinished student project. The fight with the giants is particularly bad. It takes place in broad daylight, which exposes the amateur effects. The editing is also horrible. It feels like a cheap 90s television show. The soundtrack is misused, featuring songs that add absolutely nothing to the scenes. Even the humor fails. The movie relies on gross-out burp jokes and “pantomime” dialogue that feels more like a poor kids’ film than a dark horror-action epic. VERDICT: The Final Hellboy Movie 2019 Review Ultimately, Neil Marshall’s Hellboy is a disaster. Please don’t see this unless you hate yourself. It is two hours of your life that would be better spent doing literally anything else. CGI Quality: 1/10 Writing: 1/10 Overall Rating: 1/5 Stars Check out our other 2019 reviews: Review – Shazam!
