Hellboy II: The Golden Army review
Last night Melissa and I watched Hellboy II: The Golden Army. A sequel to Hellboy. Now Hellboy was great, the characters were introduced well and the story was excellent. WHAT happened in Hellboy II? The makeup/costume for "little hellboy" at the start was just not right, Abe shoots guns and gets drunk? The paranormal research facility has turned into a 'men in black' style setup where every second room has dangerous creatures within. Harry Potter style "troll market", a frustrating love plot, no Agent Myers, what else? This movie felt botched to me, was overdone in some areas and seriously lacking in others. Lengthy boring scenes that brought nothing of value to the film and a huge amount of predictability in the script at times. I was disappointed in this film compared to the first.
