Let me preface this with, I love the director Guillermo del Toro. That said this movie was a piece of junk. If you must see it, I suggest you wait until dvd. If you were ever a fan of the first Hellboy don’t subject yourself to the depression of spending 8 bucks on Hellboy 2. Though Guillermo del Toro knows how to make a movie visually  amazing, I think someone took a dump on the script. There are far too many cheesy one liners to have had sane individuals write the script. After watching the movie I guess they wanted the movie to fit in with all of the new super hero cookies. If you can finagle an ipod into the theater and drown out the dialogue and just watch it consider yourself better off.
