Photobucket

IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0411477/

Torrent: N/A

Plot:
The mythical world starts a rebellion against humanity in order to rule the Earth, so as Hellboy and his team returns they must save the world from the rebellious creatures. Now, as the creatures who inhabit the spiritual realm gear-up for an all out attack on the human plane, the only one capable of saving the Earth is a tough-talking hellspawn rejected by both worlds.

Review:
Well directed, great use of sets and music/score make this a whole film. It was good to watch and I enjoyed it, make sure you’ve seen the first movie though first. One thing I didn’t know, actor Doug Jones who plays Abe Sapien/Fishstick also plays another 2 roles in the movie, looking at his past acting history he has several roles in movies playing robots/aliens/creatures, notably as the Silver Surfer in the Fantastic Four movie and the robot from The Benchwarmers.
Ron Pearlman (Hellboy) plays the role again, some great choreography in fight scenes with the enemy, he’s doing bloody well for someone who’s 58 years old. He’s also done an assload of video game voiceovers. It might also be worth checking out another film he’s in called The Mutant Chronicles.
It’s action packed and some laughs, well worth seeing if you want a night out. Still amusing seeing a big red man beat people up.

Worthy of noting, Seth McFarlane from Family Guy/American Dad does the voice for the robot with the German accent in this.
