Guillermo del Toro does it again.

Rating: 8/10 (17 January 2009)

Once more we suspend belief & enter the extraordinary, imaginative mind of this gifted writer & director. GUILLERMO DEL TORO. Last year he gave us both Pan's Labrynth & Hellboy. Now we have 'Hellboy part 2 -The Golden Army' Ron Perlman once more is this mutant creature.
The story is pure fictional fantasy. Over the years we have seen this type tale endless times, BUT Mr.del-Toro has this gift to make it seem fresh & alive Now with computer graphics we can create these strange creatures & bring his wild imagination come to life & thrill is again.
The entire cast is first rate,each one having there own 'lil' quirks. Ably assisting Ron Perlman are Selma Blair, Jeffrey Tambor, & John Hurt. They are the good guys, Our main villains are twins,a brother-sister due, played with delightful relish by Luke Goss & Anna Walton.
The settings, costumes etc are first rate, The creature make-up is exceptional & with the excellent special effects, could easily be Oscar worthy.
See this for pure enjoyments sake, Kids of all ages will love it,the 'lil' ones may be somewhat frightened at some spots.
I do hope there will be a part 3.
