Critics Consensus

Hellboy Fails to Catch Fire

Plus, Missing Link is another Laika triumph, Little is slight, and Fosse/Verdon season 1 is Certified Fresh.


This weekend at the movies, we’ve got a snarky superhero (Hellboy, starring David Harbour and Milla Jovovich), a personable primate (Missing Link, featuring the voices of Zach Galifianakis and Hugh Jackman), the opposite of Big (Little, starring Issa Rae and Regina Hall), and a coed romance (After, starring Josephine Langford and Hero Fiennes Tiffin). What are the critics saying?
