The heroes of 1899 are brought to life with the help of some expensive special effects in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. From the pages of Victorian literature come Captain Nemo, Dr. Jekyll (and his alter ego Mr. Hyde), Dorian Gray, Tom Sawyer, an Invisible Man, Mina Harker (from Dracula), and the hunter Allan Quatermain (Sean Connery), all brought together to combat an evil megalomaniac out to conquer the world. Hardly an original plot, but perhaps that's fitting for a movie sewn together like Frankenstein's monster. The movie rushes from one frenetic battle to another, replacing sense with spectacle--Nemo's submarine rising from the water, a warehouse full of zeppelins bursting into flame, Venice collapsing into its own canals; flashy, dumb, and completely incoherent. Fans of the original comic book will be disappointed. Also featuring Peta Wilson, Shane West, Stuart Townsend, Richard Roxburgh, and Jason Flemyng. --Bret Fetzer

LXG is a flashy stylized action comic book movie, that fails to create desire for a sequel due to bad acting and bad writing.

Great movie although the high definition transfer is not as good as it should be.

but it wasn't terrible. Movie looks really good in Blu ray, as I thought it would. The movie, as I said, could have been better but its still a nice fun watch if you aren't too concerned with plotlines. Some very good actors doing the best they could with the script they were given. A sequel would be nice if it were a bit more polished, I think...

I had never read the "comic" books that the film is based on, so I came to the film with no preconceptions, and I enjoyed it for what it is - a family orientated adventure film.
We open with the dark cobbled streets of London in 1899 and a strange, never seen before, metal vehicle (we know to be a tank) is rolling through the streets and heading straight into the Bank of England, where a German scientist is kidnapped.
We move to Kenya, June 1899, where a man comes in search ... Read More

I love almost any movie Sean Connery makes and this one is now at the top of the list. The vendor shipped in "post haste" and had it packed so no damage could come to it. The condition was as written by the vendor and came a considerable time before the "deadline". Great job! I will return for more movies.
