Review – Hellboy 2: The Golden Army

Second verse, very similar to the first. Aside from a few interesting visual twists from Guillermo del Toro, this production is pure comic book. As with many other sequels, the characters develop more complicated emotional connections. But otherwise this is the same end-of-the-world-monster-attack-narrowly-averted-by-obnoxious-hero soup from round one. Just be sure to watch the first one first, because otherwise you’ll come in late on a lot of essential character development. Mildly amusing
