Ok well yes I know i havnt blogged a movie review in over a month but ive been super busy with school and work and well i quit my job and really nothing i wanted to see was out. I mean i did want to see the Hulk and Wall-E just couldnt find the time or money to do so. but anyway.
HellBoy II:The Golden Army
So the sequal has nothing to do with the first movie though it does take place afterwards. Its directed,written,produced, and just about everything else by Guillermo Del Torro. If you’ve seen Pan’s Labyrinth you’ll see the similarities almost immediately. Just with the shots and colors and monsters.
Ok well the storyline is that long long ago monsters and humans lived together and one day humans wanted total control so they fought and humans won. A troll then told the Elf King that he would build a Golden Army that is indestructible and he did and then the elves won the rematch. A truce was formed and the Golden Army was put to sleep and the movie starts off where the vengeful son of the elf king comes to modern day New Jersey to start up some shit and bring war to the humans.
In this movie HellBoy is seen by the public and well now the world knows about him and he loves it. The action is pretty good and theres plenty to go around. The movie was about 1h40m and i think it would of been longer so that things could of been explained better. everything seemed to happen real quick and the dialogue was pretty lame. But the cg wasnt that bad. Ya it was bad in some spots but for the most part it was good where it needed to be.
overall id say wait for the dvd and start waiting in line for Dark Knight after you read this.
