A shaky plot but still a fun movie to watch.

A fun and fast film with an outstanding visual design. The visual design is splendid and the characters are well drawn so to speak, but there are problems with the film. That is with the plot. There is an obvious solution to the problem that the characters face it is too obvious for me, and the characters are just a tad too dumb when it comes to the plot. Also the choice Hellboy is given is basically the same as in the first one which is a repetition. The character interactions are good though so for that and the visual design I recommend it.
Pros: Great visual design, interesting characters. Actors are good, and it is fun and funny.
Cons: Goes a little too far with the mythology, and themes are not very compelling. The story is excruciating are parts due to the characters acting too dumb.
