Hellboy II: A Review




I'm a huge Del Torro fan as well as a Mignola fan so I was reall looking forward to watching Hellboy II. I think Hellboy is one of the best comic book creations in the last 20 years and also one of the most iconic.

Del Torro and crew did not let me down. Everything about this movie is bigger and better. Characters and relationships progressed to where they should from the last movie. Abe is more of focal point in this movie which is something I really liked and the introduction of Johann to the filmverse is also welcomed.

The Golden Army does have a different tone than it's predecessor but it still stays true to the roots of Hellboy and the universe he plays in. Overall one gets the feeling that Del Torro is a true fan of the comic and was the best choice for the directors chair.
