Dove guardare Hellboy - L'uomo deforme
- stuhannaford22 maggio 2025An utterly incoherent mess. Dreadful effects, overly long sequences for little reason, and the less said the better about the introductory first ten minutes. The acting has a decidedly am-dram feel to it, and that’s never a good thing. The jokes fall flat, the relationships are oddly cobbled together and the story itself could easily be compressed into thirty minutes… and it would still be too long. Thin to say the least.
- Zokkiie30 marzo 2026First time I half-watched it all, hated it. Figured I’d give it another shot… made it 30 minutes in before throwing in the towel. It’s cheap, lazy, and just goes through the motions. Acting’s stiff, dialogue’s cringey, and the darker vibe drags everything down. Feels like it doesn’t even care, and honestly… neither do I. Pretty sure they just made this to keep the rights.
- Philipp Noller21 febbraio 2026I was actually quite pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere of this movie is much darker than the previous Hellboy movies and it suits the movie very well. The CGI is sometimes a little sloppy but the Horror is well done in my opinion. Looking at the other Hellboy movies it falls right in the middle.
- jackmeat11 dicembre 2024My quick rating - 4.7/10. This sequel attempts to reignite the beloved franchise by delving into the darker, folklore-heavy corners of the Hellboy universe. Set in the 1950s Appalachian wilderness, the story finds Hellboy and a rookie BPRD agent battling a coven of witches and their enigmatic leader, the Crooked Man—a figure with ties to Hellboy’s infernal lineage. While the film does succeed in creating a moody, atmospheric setting that feels ripped from a gothic horror comic, it struggles to live up to the franchise’s legacy. The absence of Ron Perlman as Hellboy is deeply felt. His replacement Jack Kesy, though capable, lacks the commanding presence and wit that Perlman brought to the role, leaving the film feeling somewhat hollow. The Crooked Man (Martin Bassindale) as a villain is underwhelming, both in concept and execution. Rather than being a terrifying, layered antagonist, he feels like a watered-down caricature, devoid of the menace needed to carry the film. The action scenes provide some sparks of excitement, but they are few and far between, making it difficult to stay engaged. The film’s most significant shortcoming is its lack of the bite and boldness that made earlier entries in the franchise so memorable. Gone are the robust characters, rich lore, and sharp humor that defined the series. Instead, what remains is a diluted attempt at supernatural horror that leans heavily on its visual style but fails to deliver in terms of story or character depth. It isn’t a total misfire—its Appalachian setting and folklore-inspired premise had potential, and there are moments that briefly capture the eerie magic of its source material. However, the uninspired villain, uneven pacing, and lack of a compelling Hellboy ultimately leave it feeling like a shadow of what it could have been.
- iron_mage26 giugno 2025I really liked it, it's the first of the hellboy films that felt like the comics to me, definitely an interesting choice to adapt a short character centric story rather than rehash the whole prophecy/destiny bit or try to safe all of humanity etc while still showing a different side of his origin with his mother, & fleshing out the story so it adapts well into a satisfying narrative, a refreshing take on the verse, i think the casting choice was solid so it's worth checking out even if you're diehard about ron pearlman being the only hellboy, bit sad that the blu-ray i got doesn't have a commentary track
- Richard25 ottobre 2025This reboot didn’t do much better, lots of promise, but it stumbles through the woods and never quite finds its soul. Jack Kesy steps into the horns this time and while the Appalachian folk horror angle had potential, the execution feels half baked. The Crooked Man himself is creepy enough and the setting has that eerie, misty charm, but the pacing drags, the budget shows and the emotional core never really clicks. It tries to be different, smaller scale, more atmospheric, closer to the comics, but ends up feeling like a side quest with no real payoff. The cast does what it can and there are flashes of style, but it’s missing the spark that made the del Toro films sing. Not unwatchable, just underwhelming. The kind of reboot that makes you appreciate how good the original run really was and how hard it is to recapture lightning in a bottle when you trade heart for horror tropes.
