Philosophy at it's best
A Philosophy class of mixed intelligent and great mind thinkers are at the en of their semester. Their professor on the last day has proposed to them a problem that needs to be solved not only philosophical but ethically as well. It is an end of the world senario and they have to pick who is best to survive and repopulate the world. They are given a chance to pick a career and then pick either an extra advantage or disadvantage. These all play a role on wether they can rebuild life or bring it to a horrible end. The role playing ideas in this story are so well thought out that if you took philosophy in college you can almost out yourself in the movie and act it out with the characters in mind.

Headbanging new take on Mike Mignola's demonic superhero. Hellboy, summoned to end the world but raised to protect it, has to do battle with vampires, man-eating giants, murderous occultists, pig-headed fairies and an evil sorceress from Arthurian legend. Scores highly on the 'ugh' front with a lot of gore.

Directed by Neil Marshall, so taste and restraint are not much in evidence, while the script is extremely variable and most of the performances not much cop either. Were-beasts fight fairies, demons fight vampires, none of it makes a great deal of sense, and there's little sign of the wit and style of Guillermo del Toro's films about these characters. In the end the film has plenty of energy and a sense of humour about itself which keep it just about watchable, but it's still a bit of a disappointment.

Very good film set in the future where everything is done in the virtual world so hardly any human interaction goes on. If you like sci-fi films this might appeal to you but there is a moral of the story and glad to see it plays out in the end. Seen a couple of times as you can miss bits the first time although as in most cases the book is better.
