Ok, conoscenze, pay attention.� I got another "Special Delivery" for you.� My boys will be around to give you the handouts, wait for them.� You know what, do us all a favor and why don't you hold your breath while you do.

Our rating system is based on a $7 ticket cost and is the most you should pay to see it.
Any way, this month's movie is Hellboy, starring Ron Perlman, Selma Blair, Jeffery Tambor, Karel Roden, Rupert Evans, and John Hurt.� The main star is Ron Perlman who plays Hellboy.� This movie is your basic sci fi movie.� In WWII, a group of soldiers stumbled onto Hitler trying to open a gateway to another dimension.� This gateway would allow a demon to cross over that would help destroy the world.

The demon, of course, was Hellboy.� (Come on, pay attention here.� I ain't typing this shit for fun.� Scott keeps promising me freedom from this stupid "Italian Witness Protection Program".� Don't worry though, I got a pair of special shoes designed just for him).

Well, the gateway was destroyed before any thing bad could happen.� A paranormal doctor took in Hellboy and raised him to be a crime fighter.

The movie continues, blah, blah, blah.� Turns out Hellboy has a girlfriend who can control fire.� Whop-dee-do.� Of course Hellboy is tormented.� The people who tried to open the gate during WWII are trying to again.� However they need Hellboy to finish the job, he is the key (quite literally actually).

In the end, Hellboy over comes his destiny and the portal is never opened.

The movie had great special effects.� I loved it.� In fact I got so excited, Candy had to pay me a visit.� But.. (yes, there's a but, and it my fat ass)� But, the ending let me down.� The movie starts off great, it seems to progress well, but then the end come all of a sudden, Hellboy wins with the help of his girlfriend and the movie is over.� And I sat there and couldn't believe the movie was over already.� I missed something, I know what it was, it was the ENDING.� It came too fast and too unexpected.� After the rest of the movie went so well, the ending seemed to just fizzle.

My recommendation is that if you want to see it because your curious, go ahead, but I only give it $2.� Hell, I shot my TV when I saw the ending I was so upset, I gotta save some money.
