The Scorpion King 2: Rise of a Warrior (2008) Movie Review
Granted, “The Scorpion King” with The Rock was no masterpiece; it was a mildly entertaining movie that was probably too generic for its own good, but it’s hard to argue that the film, directed by Chuck Russell, did what it did very well.

Hellboy is unique in the world of superheroes. He was conjured from hell by the Nazis, but he’s a good guy who watches too much TV, and enjoys a fine cigar, Baby Ruth, and the touch of a soft kitten. His weapons of choice are his rock hard Right Hand of Doom and a great, [...]
