After thousands of years of peace, an Elf prince becomes determined to wage war against the human race; but Hellboy, now living in domestic bliss with Liz, certainly isn't about to allow him to just achieve his goal without a fight, in del Toro’s technically magnificent and sporadically entertaining sequel, which crucially misses (as it toys with Star Wars like silliness) the grounding in the human world of the first film.
