    I love DVDs that have extras so I was pleased that this film had as much on it as it did considering how negative the reviews are and the fact that it did not break the 100 million mark in the US. Worldwide box office and video sales well exeeded the cost of the film so the filmakers should be happy. I guess they were confident ahead of time that it was worth putting in 2 commentaries etc. From what I read there were many other scenes filmed that were not used and at least some are included. I hope they do a extended version one day. If the dvd/bluray sales do well enough who knows? I am a big Connery fan and even though this film did not thrill me when I first saw it in the theatre I enjoy it more now on DVD just taking it for what it is. I will get the blu ray version after I get my big screen tv if this does not look as good as it does now on my 27inch Sony. It is crystal clear and fits the bill overall. Connery still makes you believe he is able to do the job even though at this date he was 73! It helps of course that this is a fantasy film and not a modern day true to life drama. Good popcorn flick as they say.

    With the majority so far here...this picture, panned almost to a man by the critics, was actually as enjoyable as I thought it would be before I started hearing the avalanche of negative reviews. Why did they hate this film so much?! It has NON-stop action, great art direction, good casting, (I am in love with Peta WIlson!) a nice, world-threatening plot, (probably yet another nod to Connery,) and passable special effects. Perhaps it was the obvious hand that Marvel may have had in it...the whole movie reminds me an AWFUL lot of Van Helsing, what with Mr. Hyde having a prominent part in it, on top of the presence of Richard Roxburgh, who played Dracula in that movie. Van Helsing also, in turn, bore a strong resemblance to X-2, X-Men United. CGI effects are also a lot more obvious in Marvels movies than they are in anybody elses, and they are here...THAT could have been a put-off...but for me, the not-so-great CGI was hidden well enough by shadows so that it wasnt as bad as it was in The Hulk or Spiderman. The group consists of: Allen Quartermain, (Connery...glad they didnt pick Richard Chamberlain,) Tom Sawyer, The Invisible Man, Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, Captain Nemo, (wait til you see the Nautilus...WOW!) and a persona de femme from Dracula, Mina Harker, played by Ms. Wilson. Dorian Grey is along for the ride, too, but how much can you trust a character made up by Oscar Wilde? Its great seeing Connery slug a villain and making it stick, at his age...(hes 77 now, can you believe it?) and Peta Wilson...YES!! Love that accent, love that stature, love that improvement-on-Julie-Christie thing shes got going for her....Love that car, too...Ill bet you anything either Panther Westwinds or Sbarro had something to do with that beast! That looked like a Lancia grille, too! Anyway, there is, indeed, non-stop action! You really do root for the good guys, especially after its revealed that the groups being conned by a surprising source, and just marvelling at the great sets and cinematography used in the film is a kick. I highly recommend this underrated little film, one that the critics made look much worse than it is!

    Being a fan of the graphic novels I was not really eager to watch this film, scared about how badly they would wreck it. But in the end it was a delight. I enjoyed how they brought in each character, how they set up the plot, how they carefully set up the foundation to make it easy to move right into the action and adventure of the latter parts of the film. I wish they had kept some of the deleted scenes in the film, because some of them were important, linking one scene to another, but in the end the film was a good one. The extras in the DVD, from the behind-the-scenes documentary and audio commentaries, really add to the DVD. Something to add to your DVD library if you are a fan of the old novels, with such super-stars like the great white hunter, Allan Quatermain, the sub captain, Captain Nemo, and that great scientist, Dr. Henry Jekyll. If you enjoyed this movie, remember that the graphic novels are available. The movie is based on the first volume, but there are TWO out at the time of this review. Great books. Evil thugs, explosions and lots of dark city streets that all look alike. Have fun!

    Never had an interest in watching it. Maybe it was the title, or poor trailers, but just did not want to watch it when it was new. Fast forward to now, accidently clicked on the wrong movie and was hooked within 5 minutes. Great movie. Hoaky at times, but entertainment at its finest.

    Now that Sean Connery has passed on, this kind of makes the movie a little bit more special a very good actor, I really enjoyed the movie very unusual
