    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      David Hyde Pierce did the voice of Abe Sapien in Hellboy (2004), while Doug Jones played the physical part. For this movie, Jones also does the voice. The reason is because the producers hoped Pierce's name would make the first movie a box-office smash. But he refused to be credited, because he felt Abe Sapien was Jones' work, and as such, did no promotions nor interviews, nor even attended the premiere.
    • Goofs
      When the tooth fairies attack, Abe says that they feed mostly on calcium and go for the teeth first, yet when the devoured body of a BPRD agent is shown, all the flesh has been stripped but the skeleton and teeth are clearly fully intact.

      Hellboy: You're in love. Have a beer.

      Abe Sapien: Oh, my body's a temple.

      Hellboy: Well, now it's an amusement park.

      Abe Sapien: No, no, no. The glandular balance of...

      Hellboy: Just shut up and drink it, would you?

    Surprisingly on par with Hellboy
    This is something special; when a second film in a series is able to surpass or equal to it's predecessor. It's not just because the first Hellboy was so excellent, which it was, but they handled this second film with such care and pizazz, it's almost better, in ways, than the first.

    It's very rare in a saga that the second films rises over the first, which is why when I say that Hellboy II: The Golden Army was almost in every way better than Hellboy, I mean it, and for me to love Hellboy like I do, that's saying a lot. Hellboy II had everything the first had, but with bigger and better qualities. The action was superb, story line was great, and acting, directing, etc. was just as perfect.

    I was entertained through the entire film and I enjoyed every minute and in the end I was left with a big smile on my face for how great this sequel turned out to be, but here again, I still think it is on par with the first because of how the first was so perfect at setting up the story from the comics and how amazingly entertaining it was as well, with all the great performances that the second had and just when I put the two films together, I honestly can not decide which is better. All I have left to say is that if you loved Hellboy, this is no disappointment whatsoever, and you need to see it right away!
