Both Movies Rocked

Hell boy

Hellboy II: The Golden Army is certainly a notch or two above the first one. In fact, it was, in my opinion, about as good as action/adventure/fantasy movies get.

The action in this movie is a whole lot better, it was more intense and was a lot more fun to watch. The comedy was great, laughed many times during the movie. The visuals were by far the best, lots of things to look at, looks of very stimulating imagery.

I say it again and again the fight scenes between Nuala and Hell boy and other were awesome



Handcock


It stars Will Smith as Hancock, Jason Bateman as Ray Embrey, and Charlize Theron as Ray Embrey's wife, Mary Embrey. The plot is about Hancock, who is an alcoholic badass with super powers, who doesn't care about what anyone thinks of him. In fact, even though he tries to help people, is hated. When he saves Ray Embrey's life, Ray wants to help Hancock become a real superhero, and be loved by people.

The plot was great. It outdid the action, and it outdoes many other superhero films, for me. It's a simple plot, until the "twist" in the film is revealed, during the second half. The twist is a bit complicated, and it is not all revealed in one scene, but rather throughout the second half. One thing it reveals, while not the only thing, is the origins of Hancock.
