---Spoilers included-------
Honestly, after lot of letdowns (The happening/Indy4/Funny games) I am quiet doubtful of this movie. But it matched my expectations the visuals were fantastic and I loved the creativity that was put into the creature/troll designs/costumes. Action/fight scenes were all nicely done. Coming to story in the mythical world, led by Prince Nuada, has begun a rebellion against the human race. There are three parts to a crown, one held by Nuada, one by his father, and one by his sister, Princess Nuala, which can open the doors to, and command the ancient golden army. Nuala does not want for Nuada to have control of the army, and sets off away from her home. She then runs into Hellboy teams and they must team up against Nuada and the rebellious creatures the stop them from unlocking the golden army. Story is just ok overall. The quality/originality of the script suffered compared to the first original film. The acting is solid. Ron Perlman, as always, good & body language was awesome & dialogs were good. If you enjoyed the Hellboy I then you will enjoy this one too. Another huge hit for the Hellboy franchise and Kudos to Del Toro.
Following are many absolutely gorgeous scenes.
•After Hellboy kills that octopus-type creature & little meadow appears. This scene alone the worth the ticket price.
•Very interesting creature that pulls the metal thing out of Hellboy. Simply brilliant. Lot of thought went in to troll creation.
•Troll market scene, "tooth" fairies attack etc.
Minor odd scene:
•Youth Hellboy looked very odd. Total misfit.
