The titular army is a steampunk-fantasy dream. These mechanical soldiers, animated through a magical crown, are some of the most creative battle droids ever designed. The final fight choreography is balletic and brutal.
Concise recommendation
The film is widely regarded by critics as superior to the original, holding a "Certified Fresh" status on Rotten Tomatoes Visual Style: Reviewers from The Independent Critic
The film picks up with Hellboy (Ron Perlman), Liz Sherman (Selma Blair), and Abe Sapien (Doug Jones) working for the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense (B.P.R.D.). The stakes shift from the cosmic horror of the first film to the realm of ancient myths.
