I have to go with V ormancian on this one... The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is a full 5 stars worth of entertainment. Is it perfect? Nope. But it is absolutely worth the price in movie enjoyment. ...

Pros: The Nautilus...
Cons: Plot, acting, lighting, reoccurring flaws...

Pros: interesting premise, great effects, decent acting
Cons: story not faithful to original character or the graphic novel

I don't know how I missed this movie up until now. As soon as I read description, I was intrigued. I also wondered why I managed to miss it for so long. It had so many elements that I am fond of. The only thing I can think of is that since I've never ...

Pros: Sean Connery,special effects
Cons: too much misdirection

I will go see any movie with Sean Connery because I have had a crush on him since childhood. When I ...

Pros: Fantastic special FX, fast and furious, quite a bit of humour, Sean Connery
Cons: Inconsistent script and characters, not enough thought put into it

Preamble There are some actors and actresses, a very few, who are so good that they have a real presence that can lift a whole film. If I were to make a list of these, I would include Alan Rickman, Harrison Ford, Tommy Lee Jones, Cate ...

Pros: Sean Connery's performance was awesome as per usual
Cons: the rest of the movie was a complete let down

Pros: Connery (to an extent), Wilson, West, scenery
Cons: (where to begin?)

I’m pretty sure that I know why I didn’t see The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen in the theater. I wasn’t really that interested in the film or the characters…but I did decide to watch it after a friend brought it over for our ...

Pros: ......
Cons: .......

This didn’t wow people or receive great reviews, which is probably why I liked it. There is just something about Sean Connery, I think he is at the point in his acting career where he is doing things that he just enjoys and that reflects in the ...

Pros: It's entertaining.
Cons: It's not going to be everyone's cup of tea.

My brother asked me an interesting question today. He asked me why I would rent something like The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen when I know it's going to be actively bad before I put it in the DVD player. And I'm not going to lie to you. In the long ...

Pros: Sean Connery. Stuart Townsend and Peta Wilson as a somewhat diabolical couple.
Cons: Cheap production values and special effects. Witless.

I know my fans are all anxious to find out the outcome of my celebrity gubernatorial candidate 'Tap Off' the other evening. Despite the star studded entertainment and audience, we didn't get quite as much press as we hoped - apparently we were up against ...

Pros: Attractive looking film and some good acting
Cons: Weak story and poor characterizations

If you aren't that familiar with the peculiar nature of "the buzz", the Hollywood scene, defined by ...

Pros: action, adventure, liberated woman, high quality, fun, exciting
Cons: only small problems, but maybe you don’t want to believe this fantasy

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is a guy flick, no doubt, but I loved it, too. It has just enough breadth to make us gals happy. For one thing, it has a very liberated woman who can not only take care of herself, but also take out a few of ...

Pros: They certainly tried very hard
Cons: there's more to good film than effort

Do you know what ship Ishmael sailed upon? Can you tell the difference between the Rue Morgue and the Moulin Rouge? Have an inkling of what happened on The Mysterious Island with a vessel captained by no one? Then League of Extraordinary ...
