Hellboy II: The Golden Army

Hmm ... I just didn’t like it as much as the first. It was okay. Really kind of amused itself with its own creature creations. I guess that’s cuz it was directed by the same guy who did Pan’s Labrynth (never saw it.

And the battle against impossible odds part at the end really kind of overlooked the fact that all Hellboy had to do in the first place was challenge the albino bad guy’s claim to The Golden Army. And I usually just do not bother to catch things like that – so if I noticed, you know it was obvious. Verdict: Movie Rental If You Must
