Hellboy II: The Golden Army - 7/10 Much better than I was expecting. The visuals are absolutely spectacular, the action great, and the performances excellent and fun. Beats the first Hellboy by leaps and bounds. It's entertaining from start to finish. The story isn't anything to write home about and has been done before, but for this kind of film it works well and Del Toro definitely knew what to do with it. Pearlman is a blast and all of the characters are all very unique and interesting. The film does lose a bit of steam in places though. There were moments where my face was glued to the screen, and then there were other times where I was entertained, but some of the stuff felt a bit pointless. I think it ran about 15 minutes too long, but I don't doubt that a die hard Hellboy fan would and should tell me different. The direction is flawless with a little mix of Blade II and Pan's Labyrinth going on which is a knockout combo! The comedic moments were often good. A few of them fell flat, but the audience always seemed to enjoy them. Overall, Hellboy II: The Golden Army is an extremely well made, fun, entertaining, and interesting film that has minor flaws but nothing major. If you need something to hold you off until you know what hits theatres next Friday, I highly recommend you give Hellboy II a viewing.
