Hellboy II: The Golden Army Review

Last night, Friday, i went out to go see Hellboy II with much anticipation. The movie started at 7:40 and we got there at 7:20, and the line had already been let in! I was a little nervous that I wouldnt get my seat but much to my dismay, i walked in and only about twenty people were in there. I was shocked. So anyways I got my seat and I was happy. Now to the review.

The movie sends you through a few main emotions. Happiness, sadness, and excitement. The movie, moreso than the first, has a wide assortment of jokes and comedy. The whole movie was full of them which lightened the tone at sometimes. Most of the characters from the first are here, and a few new ones. I wont tell you who they are because i dont want to ruin it for you. :) It starts out with the story of the Golden Army, which sets the whole tone for the movie. As you may have noted in the first, Hellboy and Liz are together now. (If you havent seen the first one sorry. Haha.) It takes you on a ride of their newfound relationship and the struggles they must endure. I dont want to explain anymore out of the spoiler factor.

The special effects were AMAZING! Guillermo del Toro (Pan's Labyrinth) did an amazing job on this movie. This movie , unlike its predessessors added a wide range of new creatures and baddies. It is more than your ordinary type of creatures. It involves trolls, goblins, elves, demons, humanoids and many others. This movie isnt scary at all so dont worry about that.

The movie is jam packed with action and would be great for any movie lover to go see. The ending was great as well. It left it open for a sequel, but makes you wonder what it will be about. This is a noteworthy fact, DO NOT STAY AFTER THE CREDITS. There is nothing! If i didnt stay long enough email me and please tell me. But i waited until the lights came on and teh employees were cleaning, so im pretty sure. That was the only thing that made me mad about the movie.

Overall this movie is a definant go see. I give it a 9.3/10 total. When this comes out I will be buying it for sure!

Always and Never
