The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen [UMD for PSP]

The DVD came in excellent shape

Product delivered on time. In good condition.

On paper this film seems to have it all. A great idea, a huge budget for F/X and a solid cast, but for some reason it just doesnt come together? I vaguely remembered seeing this film in theaters back in the day, but the only part I could remember were the early scenes with Sean Connery as Alan Quartermain, and some flashes here or there. After watching Dr. No the other day, I found myself on a Connery kick and watched The Untouchables and wanted to follow up with LXG. In 1899 a series of attacks against sovereign nations by a group of well armed terrorists and led by the masked Fantom, has led Europe to the brink of war. Using advanced weaponry such as machine guns and armored vehicles, the Fantom and his men are about to begin a World War. The British Empire calls upon some of the times greatest adventurers; Quartermain, Tom Sawyer, The Invisible Man, Dorian Gray, Mina Harker and Captain Nemo to stop the Fantom and bring peace to Europe. Again, I love the idea this film is based on, and the cast of characters should be a lot of fun to watch....but the movie is just so flat. There are action scenes galore, but nothing feels exciting. The F/X, while CGI heavy, are pretty good, especially the scenes involving The Invisible Man (Dr. Jeckyll on the other hand...). Im reminded quite a bit of the Hugh Jackman film Van Helsing, in that you have a great idea on paper, and big budget a great leading man, but for some reason, just nothing clicks. League of Extraordinary Gentlemen isnt a horrible film, its not even a bad film, its just so damn dull.

Great acting and a great story line! Worth the watch.

Well Another Movie that was lost and stolen. I so loved this movie, mostly due to the cast and being set in Victorian times. Sean is a Great Actor. and I always love his movies. as no matter who he plays. He is Great. In fact the entire cast was Great. It is on my wish list. and hoping soon to order it . from amazon. and WOW Petta Wilson Was Great. and yes I Love Beautiful Ladies. lol

This movie is one of my favorites! Im surprised it does so bad on rotten tomatoes. Its may be a bit hard to follow if you dont know any of the characters, but they are from classic novels so its pretty common knowledge and explained for those who dont know them. The characters are dynamic and the fight scenes are awesome, especially near the end. I bought it to show my friends who hadnt ever heard of it and they absolutely loved it. I would highly recommend it.

This movie can and does let your imagination soar into the unreal and fantasies. It is a must watch and kept me captivated the entire movie.

One of my favorite Sean Connery movies for any action fan. I watch it at least once a week and have it memorized!

2nd time reordering because first one sent wouldnt play in American DVD players. Product quality iffy, movie excellent. Another Sean Connery sleeper.

I left my husband home alone and low and behold he purchased this movie via Amazon prime. First of all I was impressed that my sweetie pie had figured out how to work our firestick, secondly this is a good movie. This movie reminds me of the Indiana Jones series of movies.
