The Mummy – 1999 was fun to watch and full of excitement. I was deeply attracted to it and recommended it all my friends. It was really satisfying after watching The Mummy – 1999. The story was fresh and after watching it, no one will say that The Mummy – 1999 was just another film about mummies.

Of course, The Mummy Returns – 2001 continued the story about curses and mysterious mummies. I, particularly love to have Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz in the films as husband and wife. However, as much as I like about the two previous mummies series, I believe that I will have to put a full stop immediately after them.

I watched Hellboy few years back but I have totally forgotten the story. Never mind that because you do not have to watch Hellboy in order to know what Hellboy 2 – The Golden Army is about. I have vague memory about Hellboy but I did not think it was a good movie after I watched it. However, now that I watched Hellboy 2 – The Golden Army, I am determined to watch Hellboy once again.

The Golden Army was a group of 70 times 70 magical mechanical soldiers offered to King Balor, leader of the magic elfin race. In order to control The Golden Army, a magical crown was created and only the people with royal blood will be able to command The Golden Army with the crown. And only the people with royal blood will be able to challenge to own the crown.

King Balor was worried and fear because the greediness of mankind had caused war between them and the blood of his race was spilled while fighting for him. Eventually, he sent The Golden Army to defeat mankind. Deep inside, he felt regret as The Golden Army fought mercilessly. Eventually, he called for peace and separated the crown into three pieces; one for mankind and two for himself.

Prince Nuada, son of King Balor was not convinced that mankind will change. In the present day, he seeks to obtain all three pieces of the crown with the hope to awaken The Golden Army and destroy mankind. However, Hellboy and his team are in Prince Nuada’s quest to command The Golden Army.

I always like to watch movies about superheroes and mutants. Even though they are quite impossible to exist in the real world but hey, who knows? When I watch those kinds of movies, I always think that there must be something out there, somewhere. About Mutant Chronicles, the title was enough to attract me enough to watch it.

It is all the fault of human beings being too greedy. Taking everything of the Earth but giving nothing back. Thus, at the end of the Ice Age, The Machine came from the outer space with a mission to change Man into Mutant. However, Man was not to be defeated easily. A warrior named Neachdainn united the ancient tribes of Man and sealed The Machine beneath the Earth.

Everything was recorded in a book called the Chronicles.

In the year 2707, the world is ruled by four corporations. They fight each other and the seal is finally broken. The mutants rise from beneath and kill anyone in their way. After the killings, the mutants drag the dead back to the machine and the dead will be transformed into mutants by The Machine. Soon the words are out and the descendants of Neachdainn gather the best soldiers from each corporation in the hope to seal The Machine once again.
