HellBoy 2 : The Golden Army

Caught the show on Saturday and this prompted me to watch HellBoy on Ch 5 on Sunday as I felt somehow the first one somehow was slightly better.

Can't remember when I watched movie on TV !!! After about 4 years, the red fiery hot temper monster who was brought up being good was back !

After his father's death, FBI agent Manning took care of the team but HB kept pissing him off by showing up in public. Then Agent Krauss came over and took control, a spirit who has psychic abilities and stay in some kind of suit.

HB and Liz was also having their BGR relationship problem, Liz also having HB's baby .... "Hell of a baby" ?

Anyway, this kind of movie need a baddie. Story goes ... Long long long long time ago, the Elf king created a Golden Army with the help of a golbin. It was some kind of clockwork army, 70x70 ... so 4900 of them, undestructible ... the one who was royal blood and has the don't know what crown control the army. The king regretted and split the crown into 3 part, 2 to elf and 1 to the human. His son buay song and went into exile.

But Prince buay song came back, he and his KK, troll storm an auction house and get the human part of the crown. He brought along thousand of "tooth fairies" which savagely ate up almost every human in the auction house. Then HB and team came along, had hell of a time dealing with this bunch of monstrous flying creatures ... Liz had to flame them all to death.

Then Prince BS, went to find his father and kill him off since obviously he won't give his son his part of the crown. But the last part was with his sister, Princess Nuala. She escaped and hid herself in some monster market under the brooklyn bridge. At there, she went to see some freak monster and it gave her a map that tells where the f*ck was the G army.

Krauss led HB and "fishman with a toilet seat around his neck" to the market, found her and got her back to their HQ. And HB also managed to kill off troll .... This pissed off Prince BS and he unleashed some gigantic creature, the forest god ... anyway, HB killed him off anyway. Back at the HQ, fishman and Nuala examined the map but couldn't find anything. Prince BS used his bond with her sis and found his way to the HQ, somehow wounded HB with his spear.

And found out that the map was useless, but the container that holds the map actually shows where the G army was. But her sis hid her piece of the crown, he kidnapped her and wanted fishman to come save her with the crown.

In the end, they ended up at some highland in Northen Ireland, saw the goblin, he led them in and some winged creature with so many eyes saved HB. Fishman found the crown back at the HQ, kept it and wanted to use it to save Nuala, because he fell in love with her. Prince BS got all the 3 pieces, wore it and the G army came alive ... HB and team couldn't deal with them so HB challenges BS to the crown ... and seemingly HB also considered royal blood ... so BS needs to fight him.

No prize in guessing who won. The numerous monster scenes are really good, no matter whether is fighting scene and just monster wondering around. Probably is the story, anyway, a very entertaining movie. 8/10
