Review of Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008) by Dann M — 13 Jun 2012
Hellboy II: The Golden Army is bold action film full of fantasy and wonder. In this new adventure Hellboy must stop the Elf Prince Nuada from raising the fabled Golden Army, built centuries ago to destroy humanity.
Ron Perlman, Selma Blair, and Jeffrey Tambor return, and are joined by Seth MacFarlane and Luke Goss. And director Guillermo del Toro also returns, crafting elaborate scenery and costumes that are mysterious and captivating.
At times the aesthetics become too stylized and distract from the story, but overall they create a wondrous fantasy world. Additionally, Danny Elfman provides a powerful and moving score that perfectly complements the style of the film.
Hellboy II: The Golden Army is a fun and action packed film that also explores some interesting themes.
