Watch: Hellboy 2004 123movies, Full Movie Online – At the end of World War II, Nazi officers Karl Ruprecht Kroenen and Ilsa Haupstein start an experiment to raise the forces of Hell trough Russian dark mystic Rasputin on a Scottish island, but it’s interrupted by an allied commando guided by professor Trevor “Broom” Bruttenholm. He prevents killing the human-demonic half-blood, which was accidentally created and raises this “Hellboy”, while rising to head of a secret C.I.A.-linked U.S. agency Bureau of Paranormal Research, which secretly studies and uses the occult, including supernatural freaks. As “father” Broom is aging, he hand-picks brilliant, sensitive Agent John Myers as new minder-companion, as regular “warrior” Agent Clay can’t empathize and lacks flexibility mental. Hellboy is quite a handful, regularly spotted by worried civilians on unauthorized excursions, especially to pyro-telekinetic freak friend in a mental asylum. Johnny, Hellboy, and Clay team up on missions against paranormal threats with aquatic-bionic freak Abe Sapien. Their task proves to be daunting, as monster Sammael multiplies every time it “dies”, while Rasputin and the Nazis reemerge, armed for revenge..
Plot: In the final days of World War II, the Nazis attempt to use black magic to aid their dying cause. The Allies raid the camp where the ceremony is taking place, but not before they summon a baby demon who is rescued by Allied forces and dubbed “Hellboy”. Sixty years later, Hellboy serves the cause of good rather than evil as an agent in the Bureau of Paranormal Research & Defense, along with Abe Sapien – a merman with psychic powers, and Liz Sherman – a woman with pyrokinesis, protecting America against dark forces.

Reviews:

Hellboy is not a movie for everyone, no matter how much humour is in the screenplay. Nevertheless, Guillermo del Toro’s usual knack for outstanding visuals, cool looking action, and focus on character development makes Hellboy unique and entertaining af.

Also, Ron Perlman is an amazing leading man. His charisma makes him one of the most underrated actors of our time.

I love the Mike Mignola _Hellboy_ comics, and this movie is a pretty massive deviation from that source material. Oddly though, I’m kind of not bothered by that. In fact in some cases, like that of the character of Karl Ruprecht Kroenen, the film version is actually an improvement. A regular re-watch of _Hellboy_ is a pretty frequent occurrence in my household.

_Final rating:★★★★ – Very strong appeal. A personal favourite._

Hellboy, not perfect, but entertaining.
Let’s be blunt, the movie is, in essence, a little lumbering and flawed and has a rather odd climax. The beginning is overlong and vaguely too fantastical, but once you realize this is a very different world, a comic book really, and normal rules don’t apply, it can be forgiven. In fact most of the flaws can be forgiven because of Ron Perlman and what he brought to the picture.

This is one of few movies I’ve ever gone to see on the opening weekend, possibly the only one. And I did so because I was already a fan of Ron Perlman and it was great to see him in a leading role, even though he’s covered in makeup. Perlman is the best thing in this movie; he is perfect as Hellboy. He swaggers through it as if he’d always been a leading man. Delivering one-liners with ease and to perfection, battling monsters through subterranean sets and city streets, and giving a great comedic performance as well as a very emotional one that makes you just love the big red oaf. A great feat considering the extensive makeup he had to act through.

And the makeup and prosthetics are the best of its kind I’ve ever seen. There’s movement and expression in the lips at times that you would think would be impossible. You might at first think that the lips are rather stationary and unexpressive, but if you just pay attention you’ll see that there is a lot of movement and subtleties to it. Rick Baker should be praised for his work in this, it’s amazing.

Doug Jones is awesome as the body of Abe Sapien. His movements are truly beautiful. And David Hyde Pierce as the voice is perfect. Abe is a very interesting and neat character that I wouldn’t mind seeing more of. And his makeup is as amazing or even more so than Hellboy’s.

John Hurt is great in this, as is Jeffrey Tambor. Everyone in this does a great job. But Perlman’s performance as Hellboy really holds the movie together. His character stands out and speaks to the audience better than any other.

If you liked X-Men or Spider-Man don’t expect a movie as well polished and put together, but you should be able to enjoy it and the more overt comic book feel of the movie. And unlike the aforementioned movies there is quite a bit of light humor throughout Hellboy that should garner some laughs from most anyone.

Hellboy isn’t perfect, I would have changed some things, but I had fun watching it and in the end, especially for a movie of this type, I think that’s what matters most. In fact I like it more now, after seeing it again, than I did when walking out of the theater.

Quite stylish but somewhat disappointing movie.
Director Guillermo del Toro already showed with his previous movies that he has a great visual style. “Hellboy” is no exception and it has a great dark comic book atmosphere. Too bad that the story and most of the characters don’t really work out the way they’re supposed to.

The character of Hellboy self works out just great! This is thanks to mainly Ron Perlman but also to the very convincing make-up effects. The rest of the characters feel like they are only put in the movie to fill up the screen. Selma Blair is very boring as Liz Sherman and it never became clear to me in the movie why professor Bloom, out of all people picked John Myers. Not really a good character either. The two characters Abe Sapien and Tom Manning (Jeffrey Tambor is wonderful!), who were about the two most entertaining characters, disappear way too soon out of the movie. But most disappointing are the villains which are often the most important in ‘super-hero’ movies like these. Having Rasputin as the main villain of course is already a ridiculous idea itself but on top of that he simply isn’t a very good and convincing villain. Uber-Nazi Karl Ruprect Kroenen is a way more interesting villain. He is the kind of villain I love in movies, cool outfit, awesome weapons, he can’t seem to die and he has no lines. Excellent, scary, cool and mysterious all in one. Not bad for a 107 year old. He also was way more better than the most of the time, special effects monsters.

The special effects were at times good, mediocre and just at times unconvincing.

The action also was somewhat disappointing. I think this is due to the wrong offbeat pace in the movie. Everything is happening way too fast. One moment Hellboy is giving away some great, fun and cool one-liners and the next he’s fighting a monster in the subway. Because everything is happening so fast, the story also isn’t always easy to follow. The movie wasn’t as entertaining as I had hoped and expected. I’m sure that when I read the script I would like the story better than I did while watching the movie.

It still is a somewhat entertaining movie to watch but not one that I would recommend to everyone. However I’m still looking forward to “Hellboy 2” also because ‘superhero’ sequels are only getting better and better these last couple of years (“Spider-Man 2”, “X2”). Hopefully the title will be; “Hellboy 2: The Return of Kroenen”? One could only wish for…
