A daily comment from Midget Emma: Hellboy II The Golden Army (2008)

Rating: 9/10 (31 August 2008)

In my comment for Hellboy i said hopefully Hellboy II will be better and it is in every way. I expected a repeat of the first one but Del Toro went in a totally different direction then the original which gives a better result.
Del Toro certainly has a great imagination. This has creatures and sets that i wouldn't have ever thought of in a million years. It feels like Del Toro put a lot more time into this then he did in the original.
I was worried about going to this because the original wasn't the movie i expected. But i am glad i went.
I have to give a mention to the light comedy and music. I was laughing out loud. There are some hilarious scenes that are worth going to see this. The music was very unexpected. I was singing along.
This had a much more interesting story then the first one.
Overall this was a million times better than the first Hellboy. It was funny and had great action scenes. I recommend it even if you didn't like the first one.
9/10
