Hellboy 2: The Golden Army

Genre: Comic Book / Adventure
Score: 7/10

Synopses: Hell on Earth is ready to erupt, after truce between humankind and the invisible realm is broken. Now an army of mythical creatures awaits its time on Earth, the only thing standing in their way is Hellboy and the team at BPRD. Hellboy, a creature of this mystical world, now must confront his dual identity, as the harbinger of the coming war, and our world’s last savior. (MovieTome.com)

The Good: I found that the Plot for this Hellboy movie was much better than the first one and it actually managed not to make me fall asleep. The CG effects are really well done and you sometimes do find it difficult to distinguish the real from the fake.

I was very happy to see more of the other characters like the the Amphibian and Elizabeth. The Addition of another hero wasn't totally needed, but it added to the story. This time you actually went into the realm of the Unreal and saw how monsters could live. It was quite believable as a real place.

The Bad: There isn't a lot of bad things to say actually. I did find that there are some scenes that they could have kept for the Deleted scenes or which they could have cut a little shorter. You do find yourself annoyed sometimes with scenes that take to long to play out.
