This Movie is freakin' Underrated! As far as dumb Blockbusters go, this one is just... well (puts sunglasses on) 'Exellent'.
And the Complaint about a lack of realism isnt valid here. For one thing, its an MOVIE, for another its a COMIC ADAPTATION! Many people forgot that sometimes, Realism is way overrated.
Nemo's an awsome and interesting charactor. I was really expecting "the New Adventures of Captain Nemo" out of this. There's so much that could have been done with this that hasn't been explored.
Poor henchman. he had Nemo suare in his sights and could have killed him easily, but was heartbreakingly told by the script that he couldn't do that, that instead he had to just stand there and say "Draw your pistol!" which was probably the last thing he wanted to do. Poor guy guy, just trying to make his way in the world without being at the mercy of mediocre screenwriting... but Nemo just happens to be a protagonist in this picture and you're just gonna have to make it easy for him ok? :/
i laughed my ass off somehow when i saw the villain for the first time.such a cliche.the villains were terrible when squared off as rivals against an awesome group of characters
Why did her hair, which was tightly wound enough to stay in a perfect bun during the entire fight, all of a sudden become loose when her fangs came out? Not that that's the stupidest thing about the movie.
Such an utterly pointless scene in hindsight if you know who the Phantom is. And killing dozens of mooks with casual ease doesn't make the heroes look good, it makes the villains look bad.
would've been more badass if they were just sitting down in a circle having a lovely conversation with a drink all relaxed and the bandits are just nervously standing there with their guns and as soon as they finish their drinks someone drops their glass "well let me go get that" And then suddenly everyone just goes crazy and starts fighting and shit
The member of the League who doesn't deserve to be in it - Tom Sawyer. He is neither extraordinary nor gentleman. But I guess they needed an American even in Victorian era League.
@KyodaiKen1979 I wish Tom Sawyer was in the comics. I think Tom Sawyer was extraordinary, at the age of 9 or 10 he testified against a murderer(The Adventures of Tom Sawyer), solved a murder(Tom Sawyer Detective), learned how to fly a hot air balloon(not sure what is was called in the book) from a madman who kidnapped him and his friends and used the balloon to travel to the other side of the world(Tom Sawyer Abroad), and a bunch of other things. To me Tom was extraordinary.
why the hell did they make mina a vampire? i guess they thought being the only woman on the team she needed a power.... even though in the comics she was perfectly capable without one.
She was a vampire in the all of LXG canon. From what I know of the book Dracula, she was also bitten by Dracula and ergo became a vampire. So that's why she's a vampire in the movie.
@operaphantom95 no; in the first 2 books of the comic series when all these characters were alive, Mina was a normal human along with Allen and Nemo. the only ones with powers in the books were Griffon (who is not in this movie for copyright issues) and Dr jekyll. and in the end of Dracula Mina was turned back into a human and married john.
the movie was great but the main twist was jsut stupid. Why would the guy trying to start the war bring all of his enemies together where they could organize and eventually beat him? I just though the twist was kinda stupid. I guess the bad guy didnt think i through
@harisjafri Quartermain: Hunter, leader. Mina: Vampire. Dorian: Immortal. Nemo:Scientist, swordsmen, captain of the Nautilus. Skinner: Invisible. Sawyer: Gunman. Later on, they get Dr.Jekyll and Mr.Hyde.
Alan Moore's idea of a league of Victorian era superheroes is amazing, it's a shame this movie didn't fare so well with the critics and that Moore has distanced himself from the movie adaptations of his films such as this, V for Vendetta, and Watchmen, they're among my favorites.
I love Townsend as Dorian Grey! My two favorite lines in the movie! "They are not mine!" "I'm complicated!" I love the casual tone in his voice. I also like when Sean Connery tells him "you are missing a painting Mr. Grey" And he replies "And you are not missing a thing Mr. Quartermain"
@xchargerOUx While it doesn't follow the Alan Moore graphic novels all that well (none of them have), I will agree, it's way too underrated. This truly is a fun action film where the main characters don't brood all the time (remind you of any superheroes these days?) and the music kicks ass.
lol If u figure the age HE and when the book takkes places, and then relieze when the MOVIE takes place, u can notice the film makers were off by about....50 years??? XD lol
