    Hellboy: The Crooked Man

    ★★½

    I'm not a huge fan of Hellboy and think this is about on par with the Del Toro movies, but a lot better than the 2019 one. It looks like a fan film (but apparently it isn't) and the poor CGI and annoying fade to blacks didn't make the cheapness less noticeable; I will give credit to the makeup because all the practical stuff looked great.

    After finally getting to watch this I can confidently say that this may be the biggest Oscar snub in history. The whole story is just beautiful and lifted up by the amazing performances by everyone; Colman Domingo is phenomenal and so is every supporting actor, and it's even better when you learn most of them are playing themselves. I love the themes of hope, redemption, and even masculinity portrayed and they help build up the simple yet powerful ending. There…
