Movie Reviews of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen [Blu-ray]

Movie Review: It Depends on the Night
Summary: 5 Stars

It was raining, and I was checking out the lower-priced DVDs at Wal-Mart. I saw this film: it had Sean Connery, and it was $10 for the blu-ray. Two very good reasons for buying it. Now, on another night, I might not have given it 5 stars, but it was raining, and I played the DVD.

Now, I've read the 1- and 2-star comments, but I haven't read the book(s?), so I had no preconceived notions about what was "supposed" to happen. I treated this film like many of the people who had never read Lord of the Rings treated the movie. They didn't know what had been changed or left out or added, and they loved the movie.

I really liked the film. It was helped along by the blu-ray transfer and the extraordinary (pun intended) sound. If you've got a great sound system, a quality blu-ray player, and an HD TV, this will always make a difference in the enjoyment. Sean Connery was superb, as usual, and I enjoyed seeing all the other characters. The movie had a lot of great qualities (sight and sound I've already mentioned): a mission, betrayal, a lot of action, and Sean Connery.

I'm sure there are those around who can talk about plot and advancement of the characters, but I really liked the characters.

The Nautilus was one proud ship. Now, I don't know who came up with the idea of the gigantic Hyde: both Van Helsing and League of Extraordinary Gentlemen pictured him as such (and both made in 2003). Before watching either film, I never thought of Hyde as an enormous Hulk. So I don't know who to give credit for the mountainous Hyde. I really approve of the presentation.

I even liked the ending. I would like a sequel, but after this amount of time, and I guess because of poor sales, there won't be one. My two cents (whatever happened to the "cent" key on keyboards? ). :-)
