The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen

The all-new installment in the breathtaking series by Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill! In The ... more

League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (Vol III):
Century #1 ("1910")  the familiar cast of
Victorian literary characters enters the brave new
world of the 20th century! Chapter One is set
against a backdrop of London  1910  twelve years
after the failed Martian invasion and nine years
since England put a man upon the moon. In the
bowels of the British Museum  Carnacki the ghost-
finder is plagued by visions of a shadowy occult
order who are attempting to create something
called a Moonchild  while on London's dockside the
most notorious serial murderer of the previous
century has returned to carry on his grisly trade.
Working for Mycroft Holmes' British Intelligence
alongside a rejuvenated Allan Quatermain  the
reformed thief Anthony Raffles and the eternal
warrior Orlando  Miss Murray is drawn into a
brutal opera acted out upon the waterfront by
players that include the furiously angry Pirate
Jenny and the charismatic butcher known as Mac the
Knife. This one is not to be missed! This is the
first of three deluxe  80-page  full- color 
perfect- bound graphic novellas  written by Alan
Moore and illustrated by Kevin O'Neill. Each self-
contained narrative takes place in three distinct
eras  building to an apocalyptic conclusion
occurring in our own 21st century. Color.
"O'Neill's detailed art matches the intricacy of
Moore's design  combining the meticulous line work
of period book illustrations and a distinctly
modern vitality.

What's so extraordinary about this bunch?

Advantages: Loved the idea of the characters!
Disadvantages: Bad plot, poor acting!

...me when I watched, despite the fact that the trailers looked quite good!

Have you ever noticed how they put all the good stuff into the trailers, so you expect it to be absolutely fantastic and then sometimes it's just not! Well i'm afraid to say that The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen falls under this heading.

In the ususal style, here are some quotes from a couple of critics...

"The writing is ...
..."The more you think about the film, the more it falls to pieces. It's riddled with logistical and continuity errors that keep the audience continually uttering 'Huh?'"
Rich Cline, SHADOWS ON THE WALL

Well that's the opinion of the critics folks, which should at least give you some idea of what this film is like. Personally I couldn't agree more with these views, especially the last one!

Okay so here ... more

...years. Adaptations seem to be the very backbone of the film industry. Some of the greatest films of all time have been adaptations from novels, comic books, short stories and in the case of “The Fast And The Furious”, a magazine article. We today, in an age of information technology and media spin constantly see books being made into films and films being made into books. So when it was announced that some of literature’s most loved and read about ...

After the fast and furious comic book stylings that made “Blade” a big hit, we of course would think Norrington would play the same cards again crafting the post modern Victorian world with vast, glorious imagery and visual charm. Despite its superb concept and a director ...

Get Loscht

Advantages: Imaginative cast and period setting
Disadvantages: Pretty much everything else

It is the late 1800s and in London, a daring bank robbery is carried out by what appears to be a group of German soldiers. With tensions between England and Germany very fraught, matters are made worse when the English apparently destroy a German air balloon factory. The attacks are in fact both carried out under the instruction of one man, a mysterious disfigured man known only as The Phantom. It transpires that The Phantom is intent on causing ...
...until conflict breaks out. The English government subsequently decides that they need to enlist the aid of some rather special individuals to try and bring down The Phantom and an agent is despatched to Africa to approach the legendary Alan Quartermain to head up the group. Back in London, Quartermain is soon united with his new team mates, who band together to form the latest incarnation of the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (LXG). They are: ...

The League Of Extraordinary Excrement

Advantages: well-directed, attractive, great concept
Disadvantages: shoddily scripted, badly plotted, some terrible acting

...Or perhaps attribute it to the death of the wonderful Alexander Walker, without whose expert guidance I am left floundering on a sea of cinematic confusion. Whatever it is, it amounts to me being convinced that it's worth seeing a film that has been universally panned since I might like it after all... or maybe not. Actually, let's be fair. It's not that I didn't enjoy myself watching The League of Extraodinary Gentlemen, it's just that enjoyed ...

It's a Mans World

Advantages: Sean Connery - he's still got it going on
Disadvantages: Weak story, full of holes.

The year is 1898, and the British Empire is in trouble. There is a gang, led by the nefarious Fantom, robbing the Bank of England and causing trouble all over the world, most of which is blamed on the Germans. It's sort of a capitalist terrorism, aimed at starting a world war, which will make a whole lot of money for somebody, somewhere. The British government decides to enlist the help of several disparate Extraordinary Gentlemen, to put a stop ...
...travels to London to meet the rest of the League, and goes on to lead them. That's all I'm going to say about the story, as I don't want to spoil it for anyone who is intending to see it. On to the other main characters:- First we have Captain Nemo (played by Naseeruddin Shah) Oh yes, he of 20,000 Leagues under the Sea fame. He has a fabulous state of the art ship, and is fantastic with his curved scmitar. This character, was in my opinion the ...

Sean Connery does Bobby Davro does Sean Connery

Advantages: Some of the younger cast are quite good
Disadvantages: Sean Connery, the story, the dialogue

...better and more expensive than the last, and 2. They have to be loud, brash and totally unrealistic. It is normally 2 that backfires on people. Loud, brash and unrealistic works sometimes, for example in the X-men franchise, of which I am a huge fan. However, sometimes, it goes completely wrong, as with (so I’m told, I haven’t sampled its delights myself yet) The Avengers, when loud brash and unrealistic turns into annoying, farcical and over-indulged. ...
...and they both fall into the second category. I’m not saying that The League…should never have been made, I’m just saying that whoever’s bright idea it was to turn the novel by Alan Moore and Kevin O’Neill should quite possibly by hanging on to their job by the skin of their pearly whites. It’s just so implausible! A masked villain (oh, puhlease!) going by the moniker of ‘The Fantom’ is terrorising Europe, stealing weapons of ultimate destruction ...

League of Extraordinary Gentlemen/Daredaveil

Advantages: Intriguing characters and wonderful spcial effects.
Disadvantages: You are left wanting to see more.

I have watched League of Extraordinary Gentlemen many times and have never tired of the intriguing characters and each of their 'special' traights. Or indeed the special effects; especially those of ' The Nautilus', makes me wish I could see it first hand for myself. If, like me, you grew up reading Marvel comics then watching Daredevil will be like re-newing an old friendship. It reminds me of the stories I once read and is also an enjoyable film. A great action packed film, with also the hint of romance, making this a must for all the family. Great for all the family to watch, and there are some great one-liners that made us all laugh. Two films for the price of one is a plus in my opinion, and I highly recommend this DVD. ...

Review of League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen / Daredevil (DVD)

Life Post Bond

Advantages: Lots of Sean Connery
Disadvantages: Lots of not very good Sean Connery

This is an odd collection of more and less watchable movies with little in common except that that all feature Sean Connery in the lead role. Starting with his first post Bond role in Zardoz and finishing with his final big screen performance (to date) in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, this set includes mediocre performances in some ordinary movies and serves no real purpose other than filling the gaps in your collection. Looking at the movies in chronological order we get: Zardoz (1974) John Boorman was given a free hand with this psy-fi extravaganza following his success with Deliverance. Connery plays a savage called Zed on a post-apocalyptic Earth where survivors worship a floating head called Zardoz. It?s all a bit pseudo-intellectual and silly with the former James Bond forced to run around in a scarlet nappy ...
