Better than the first one

Del Toro delivers a visual feast here as he did in the first Hellboy and in Pan's Labyrinth.

The story has loopholes, much like the first one, but the visual effects and action made up for it.

I like this better than the first Hellboy movie, although I'm not a fan of using the serious elf character element in the story as I consider these creatures as overused in fantasy movies of late.
