Hellboy II

How can you not love Hellboy? The quirky characters and the dialogue are excellent. This one may not have quite lived up to the level of Hellboy I, but it came close. As always, the good guys are fabulous, and I thought the villain in this one was wonderful too. Here's my favorite line---Hellboy's comment on marriage, "I'd give my life for her, but she wants me to do the dishes." For those of you out there who are thinking Hellboy is beneath you, I point out that Rotten Tomatoes listed the film as Best Sci-Fi/Fantasy in their 10th Annual Golden Tomato Awards. It has also been nominated for an Oscar for Best Makeup.
