Hellboy, his pyrokinetic girlfriend, Liz, and aquatic empath, Abe Sapien, face their biggest battle when an underworld elven prince plans to reclaim Earth for his magical kindred. Tired of living in the shadow of humans, Prince Nuada tries to awaken an ancient force of killing machines, the all-powerful Golden Army, to clear the way for fantasy creatures to roam free. Only Hellboy can stop the dark prince and prevent humanity's annihilation.
As keen as I am for the new Neil Marshall directed Hellboy reboot, I do still wish we had gotten to see a Golden Army sequel to wrap up Ron Perlman's trilogy. Here director Guillermo del Toro lets loose all bars on his fantasy elements, stacking the movie with elves, trolls, even tooth fairies, making for a less grim, but still very good Hellboy sequel. Not to mention it features personal favourite Luke Goss in what is probably his best role to date.
Final rating:★★★★ - Very strong appeal. A personal favourite.
