The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen [UMD for PSP]

Wish they had made a sequel.

I loved Alan Moores League of the Extraordinary Gentlemen, both volume I and II in fact as Moore crosses over famous literary figures. I think this is some of his best work, definetly up there with Watchmen, V for Vendetta, From hell and Top Ten. Many expected to see a straight comic to movie adaptation. Unfortunately that is often impossible. Movies and comics are separate art forms. In fact the only thing the comic and movie have in common is really the premise. Personally I view the movie and the comics separate. I liked it alot and thought it was very well done. Many people especially the mainstream audience that saw it for the summer blockbuster were dissapointed. It got brutal reviews but who listens to the critics anyway. In order to get the movie you have to know who the characters are.I didnt like that they added Sawyer but its was still a great movie. The script was written by Comic writer James Robinson ( if you havent read Star Man you are missing on of the best comics ever written). Even Kevin ONeil (the comics artist)liked it. Anyway it was certanly better than From hell (another movie based on Moores work.

A movie mistake.... Nemo was from East India and not Turkey!

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

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

The avengers, iron man, Sherlock Holmes: game is shadows are heavily inspired from this movie. In fact Sherlock Holmes: game is shadows has same plot as this movie. Looks like this is so underrated.

It is a real shame they didnt continue this as a franchise. They put together a fantastic team. Five stars.

4 stars because the kids (18, 20, and 24) could watch this movie over, and over, and over! And they do. I find it ok but HAD to get it when it was discovered in Amazon video because this is a classic for the kids. I could take it or leave it individually but it does work as a family movie when we are grilling or just hanging out.

Sean Connery is fabulous as he ages hes like fine wine just gets better and better.

I really enjoyed this movie. The writing is good, the photography and special effects are good, and the acting is excellent as well. Although I must admit, Sean Connery is one of my all time favorite actors. So Im sure that has something to do with my rating. :)
