Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)

Better than the first film. The story was more coherent and interesting. Special effects are fantastic, with shout-outs to Pan's Labyrinth. If you can deal with the fantastical nature of this movie, you'll have a good time.

Rating: C+

Ted (2012)

Amusing at times, but not laugh-a-minute. I liked that they made the bear visible to everyone, not just the owner. That storyline has been beaten to death. It could have been much worse.

Rating: C-
