Went to see Hellboy 2: The Golden Army

Went to see Hellboy 2: The Golden Army (Guillermo del Toro, 2008). Brilliant. Wonderful. Who else (apart from Tarantino and Rodriguez) actually manages to shoot an auteur film that's also an action movie? He's the best. Remember Mimic, El espinazo del diablo, Blade 2, Hellboy, El laberinto del fauno? All Guillermo del Toro. Can't wait for his Hobbit. This movie is all that and it's a tremendous adaptation of the interesting comic book (thank you Dark Horse and Mike Mignola), it's science fiction, it's a fairy tale, etc. Impeccable dosage of comic relief, love interest, you name it. Lots of tremendous influences, beside the hackneyed Celtic ones: Arabic, Asian... Visually stunning.
