Movie Reviews of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen [UMD for PSP]
Movie Review: Excellent
Summary: 5 Stars
This "Blu-ray" edition is the best ever. Video and audio are spectacular and well worth the "upgrade" from the regular DVD version. Movie Review: Why does everyone hate this film?
Summary: 3 Stars
Having not been too impressed by the comic book series on which this was based, I wasn't expecting a whole lot, but this adventure-fantasy filled with 19th century literary characters turned out to be an entertaining couple of hours. Bring together Allan Quartermain (Sean Connery), the Invisible Man, Captain Nemo, Nina Harker (a vampire), Dorian Gray, Dr. Jekyll (and, of course, Mr. Hyde), and an American referred to only as "Agent Sawyer," and put them under the direction of a government figure called "M," and you have a formidable force for saving the world. And the world certainly needs saving, or at least Venice and parts of Africa. There are numerous sly references to other books and films, from Moby-Dick to Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Okay, the acting wasn't top-notch (not even Connery, who didn't seem to be enjoying himself much), but the visuals were great (especially the Nautilus) and the plot was pall-mall. Not Shakespeare, but not bad.Movie Review: Mina (Peta Wilson) can bite me any time

The year 1899, the world under threat of war. World war. England calls to her hero Allan Quatermain (Sean Connery). Will he head the call? And who else may join to form the league of extraordinary gentlemen
Great concept for a comic book, however never had a chance as a movie.
Where do I start? The story (no plot) had no chance from the start. The graphics were substandard. The dialog was stilted. The fighting was poorly choreographed. The music was forgettable. However the hokey costumes were a quite amusing. I always thought Sean Connery could make any movie work until now.
On the plus side Peta Wilson could be a modern day Emma Peel "The Avengers" (1961 TV series)

Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is excellent,It's made up of several characters from different stories I grew up with. I dont think its for children. Some adults I watched it with needed background on some of the characters to help understand the characters.
