A stiff. Full Review |

So little of real consequence is at stake that you'll have plenty of time to notice how the names on not one but two tombstones are misspelled. Full Review |

... the effects and sets are marvellously fantastical and there are one or two neat comical allusions to the heroes' literary roots. But where's the excitement, the thrills, the tension, the style? Full Review |

 3/5 |
The problem with The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is the filmmakers tried to give everyone a main storyline and ended up diluting everything. Full Review |

1/5 |
The League is a project that was doomed from the moment the studio threw out Alan Moore comic and decided that they knew better. Full Review |

Quelques moments sont légèrement mieux et même intéressants, mais dans l’ensemble, vous allez complètement gaspiller votre argent et votre temps avec ce film. Full Review |

[Director] Norrington has spent too much effort trying to include too much of the comic book. Full Review |

If you stripped this film of its effects, not even the platform would remain. Unplug the computer and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen disappears. Full Review |

League ... isn’t a great movie, but it provides more fun that a lot of the other mediocre superhero movies ... Full Review |

If there are more movies like LXG on the horizon, the genre will wear out its welcome before you can say sequel. Full Review |

Robinson and Norrington approach literature like lazy high schoolers in an English class, using the material when it suits them and ignoring it when it doesn't. Full Review |
