Hellboy II - Aaaarrrggh

[gsv]

ky that's a really weird thing to say. You wouldn't have bothered if the source had been a book rather than a comic:

gsv: Have you seen A Room With a View? It's nothing like the book.
kyser_soze: FANBOY ALERT!!!​

I'm really not sure. I enjoyed bits.

Didn't like the fantasy stuff, that whole scene where they find the hidden city full of creatures was like the bar in Star Wars meets Total Recall's Mars, but painted over by a rich madman. The Bros fella was obviously Elric, and I felt fuck all for his twin who just moped about hardly saying a word, what Abe saw in her I'll never know (fair enough if they're both in the comic I ain't read 'em).

And the Ent, wtf?

Getting bladdered to Manilow was funny, and the German smoke man dude was great.

I'm not really sure the director knew what he wanted and in the end just cobbled summat together hoping for the best.

A bit of a mess for me, preferred the first one. I admit I'm not really the target audience for this kind of caper.

OK, let's be serious for a minute.

Hellboy and Hellboy II are kids films ...so I don't really understand all the angst. Unless you're all 12 years old?

If you are then I apologise.

What a piece of shit!

It didn't get shitty reviews actually. 88% on Rotten Tomatoes, and even the fucking Guardian reviewer gushed over it.
