Hmmm.... Personally, I thought the movie kind of sucked. I totally thought the first one was better (though, granted, I thought the first one was nothing great, just harmless fluff)....
I thought plot and character development were weak, story was weak, dialogue was bad, it was too light and not dark enough; and overall, Guillermo del Toro directs for the camera, not for the actor.
Sure, the visuals were great, but that doesn't do it for me. Even for a fluffy comic book movie, I just thought it was not good.
