While I enjoyed both Hellboys, I agree with Vileone that it ampided whatever weakness del Toro has as a film maker.

It's so strange that del Toro is such a funny guy in real life but his actual humor didn't translate as well as it should in the films. I love sight gags and slapstick, but it's a shame that del Toro didn't carry over the dark wit and absurdity of the comics to the films.
