Hellboy (
Ron Perlman) is back and he snarls even more in this installment. His lover Liz (
Selma Blair) is at her fiery best and Abe (
Doug Jones) continues to be the bumbling nerd. This time around rather than battling the forces of darkness, it is a war against the faeiry folk and their army who have broken their truce with humanity. It is very obvious that
del Toro has allowed the world of
Pan's Labyrinth to sneak in here. The visuals are phantasmagorical and the fight sequences are stunning. But in spite of all that you are left with a vague sense of dissatisfaction at the end of the film.

Just watched Hellboy part 1 and was surprisingly, impressed by it. Better than most such shit that I have seen.
