What did Mike think?
It took me a while to get into the Hellboy mindset but thought this was a cracker for the humour factor alone. Ignore the plot - just crack up at "Red" and "Blue" getting pissed up on beers listening/singing along to Barry Manilow records. Good action film with very amusing characters and plenty of opportunity for further stories.
Score: 4/5
