Hellboy II: the Golden Army

[lookingland]

fun and fabulous ~ if you've never seen the first one, get it and watch it first; it'll help contextualize the character relationships. otherwise, this one stands on its own, storywise. lots of action, lots of fun weird creatures, alas too much cgi (but what can you do?). ron perlman is excellent again in the title role and the villain is lovely-creepy in a strange live-action manga sort of way.

two thumbs up if you dig this sort of goofball stuff.

ughhhh ~ shamalalalaLand has just been off his rocker for the last two movies. it's disheartening, really, because i think he has a really positive and interesting vision. he's just not pulling it together lately.

hope you get a chance to see HB and hope you enjoy it!
