I enjoyed Hellboy II: The Golden Army!

I enjoyed Hellboy II: The Golden Army!

So thanks to Elfsar Comics & Toys, William S. and myself went off to see Hellboy II: The Golden Army last night. I am still a wreck from being up way too late talking, comics, the movie, and life.

I really enjoyed the movie! I thought it was a great sequel because it was NOT a clone of the previous movie. I loved Johann Kraus (voiced by the great Seth McFarlane) but what I enjoyed the most was the interaction between Liz and Red (Hellboy). Ron Perlman just was Hellboy perfectly, Selma Blair did a great job as Liz Sherman and Doug Jones stepped up as Abe Sapien (and a ton of other characters). I enjoyed that Abe finally got a chance to be the “Reed Richards” of the team through-out the movie and the team comes together in the end which to me was what was so enjoyable. I also was having a man crush on Luke Goss as Prince Nuada, the villain of the movie (If Luke Goss was Cyclops in the next X-Man movie — that would be it for me!). Anna Walton as Princess Nuala was nice and cute but really I did not see her doing anything some other actress couldn’t do.

I felt that Guillermo del Toro wanted to bring the fantastical to life in this movie and he did but was it too much? I am sure some people will think so but I loved seeing it because we do not have many movies as such. Given the books and all the wonderful adventures the team gets into within the comics, I really loved seeing all the fantastical in the movie. Would I see it again? Hell yeah, it’s Hellboy! Would I recommend the movie? YES — go and enjoy yourself in the fun of it all!
