Hellboy 2 summary: After an ancient truce existing between humankind and the invisible realm of the fantastic is broken, hell on Earth is ready to erupt. A ruthless leader who treads the world above and the one below defies his bloodline and awakens an unstoppable army of creatures. Now, it's up to the planet's toughest, roughest superhero to battle the merciless dictator and his marauders. He may be red. He may be horned. He may be misunderstood. But when you need the job done right, it's time to call in Hellboy.
I have always been a fan of fictional stories from books and comics turned movie. So when I heard that hellboy has its second sequel lined up in the movie cinema, I rescheduled all my activities just to make space for my hellboy. Hellboy was issued last June on other countries but here in the Philippines, it's almost September yet there's still no sign of the big red ape and his fiery girlfriend(not to mention their fish-like creature bestfriend). But of course, that wont stop me from having my eyes laid on that movie. I was able to watch hellboy 2 from a DVD rip given by my friend (in which I'll give his blog link later on)
Hellboy 2 is an independent kind of a story since you dont have to watch the 1st sequel just for you to understand the story. There are some similarities from the 1st movie with regards to their character (and to my thought they would eventually mature). I wont spoil you guys so I wont tell the rest of the story but I would be giving my critic review for the movie Hellboy 2, so here goes.
Finally, a hero who looks much like a villain himself. Imagine, a scruffy, cigar-chomping, red horned, well, devil. The unusual will always have its way on the interest of the many. Unlike any other hero who can showcase great talent, strength and not to mention "looks", who would have thought that someone like him, can save the world and be a hero?

You don't need to have read the comics or seen 2004's "Hellboy" to play along, but here's the FAQ: Hellboy - actor Ron Perlman under a ton of glazed-ham makeup - is a demon raised from childhood by humans and currently employed by the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense. (It's supposed to be top secret, but Hellboy has a bad habit of turning up on YouTube.)He's short-tempered and sardonic but basically a good sort, keeping his horns sawed off and sharing quarters with girlfriend/human torch Liz (Selma Blair) and an aquatic empath - sort of a Creature From the Psychic Friends Network - named Abe Sapien (Doug Jones). Their job is to keep the occult legions (goblins, trolls, balrogs, you name it) from infesting the human world.The elves, apparently, have had enough of this nonsense. The Kabuki-face Prince Nuada (Luke Goss) overthrows his father (Roy Dotrice) and embarks on a campaign to unleash a crew of unstoppable battle-bots called the Golden Army on mankind. Our heroes are called on to foil him, if Hellboy and Liz can stop arguing about his pet cats overrunning their apartment.


There are signs of tired sequelitis in the personal dilemma Liz faces halfway through, in Jeffrey Tambor's officious BPRD bureaucrat, and in the way the clanky plot outstrips the wit in the final scenes.The movie's rescued time and again, though, by the soulful swagger of Perlman's performance - he plays Hellboy like a smarter Thing or a fully self-actualized Hulk - and by del Toro's flair for the baroque. The filmmaker loves the tatty pop energy of comic books, their speech-balloon dialogue and muscular sense of fantasy. He knows that on the page, as on the screen, you can draw anything and make it spring madly to life.
Well, that's just it. Now, this review is just my opinion, you could just simply watch the movie and enjoy it yourself. Till next movie review!
