Hellboy II
This is absolutely beautiful visually. In this respect, it was everything I was hoping for. The characterizations were interesting, and the plot acceptable. There was something wrong with the pacing. I'm not saying it was anything obvious; it was not too slow and never dragged. It was something more subtle, as if I had walked in halfway through and as a result all the action sequences were in the wrong places. I had that feeling with the characters as well, likely because i never saw the original. Simply put, as cool as this movie is, it doesn't quite manage as a stand alone and I spent the whole film off balance, not quite able to connect with the characters, always playing catch up. This is a shame, because there is so much to like here.
