> 3 dayThis was a movie that I fell in love with when it was first released to theaters. Its one of those movies that could definitely be called a guilty pleasure. Its loosly based on a graphic novel of the same name written by Alan Moore, who is also well known to have written V For Vendetta, The Watchmen, and From Hell, all of which were adapted into films. I really like the premise of the story by having these literary characters such as Alan Quatermain, Mina Harker, Captain Nemo, Dorian Gray, Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde, The Invisible Man, Dr. Moriarty and Tom Sawyer, in a setting different from what they are known to lived in and having most of them join forces was a treat. We see one of Sean Connerys lesser roles here as Quatermain, but he adds his little bit of flair that only he can do. I recommend this if youre in the mood for a good entertaining popcorn flick!

> 3 dayIts cheesy I admit but its at least entertaining. The action is a bit fantastic and unbelievable at times but these kind of movies you should expect that some what. I like the various characters and wish to know more of each of their back stories more. Its worth the watch if you got the time and like war/ history/ fantasy/ hero films.

> 3 dayNot even one of the best actors in the world could save this dark, hyper-active cartoon...one so bad that it could have been directed by Michael Bays mini-me. The cast was loaded with consummate actors and yet the director insisted on making sure we rarely saw their faces due to his apparent insistance on almost no decent lighting. The CGI was so silly...I didnt think the Mr. Hyde Monster could get more ridiculous....until it did. Sean Connery is said to have left the film business because of his terrible experience on this movie with the tacky and tasteless director, Stephen Norrington that Mr. Connery said he hated.

> 3 daySean Connery truly shines as an older Allan Quartermain. Ive loved all of Haggards characters for years, and I found no fault with his character. I know some purists have a thing about vampires in the daylight, but let me remind you forgetful individuals: BRAM STOKER WROTE ABOUT VAMPIRES IN THE DAYLIGHT!!!! Jonathan Harker sees Count Dracula in braod daylight (well, it WAS London, maybe not so broad). Anyone raised on Disneys 20,000 Leagues movie was probably a bit confused by the appearance of the Nautilus, but this design is probably far more in keeping with the time period than the Disney design. I never was a big fan of Mr. Hyde, or of The Invisible Man, so Ill not comment on them, except that I found Hydes characterization interesting. I thought Dorian Gray was well done, if not perfect. That leaves Moriarty. Doyles madman would certainly have been capable of the plots of this man, but I believe that he would have been far more subtle, and I dont think he would have given Dorians picture back. It would have been just TOO intriguing for him. The only disappointment I had in the DVD was the lack of the ending that I saw in the theaters, where Quartermains hand rises from his grave to grip the rifle. DOES ANYONE ELSE REMEMBER THAT???? Sometimes I think Im going crazy.
