The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen

One and a half stars. More than just disappointing: actively bad.

Dreadful script, and the acting is hammier than a butcher's shop. The amount of editing that has been done to make Connery's two major fight scenes seem at all realistic is enormous, and deserves special recognition. The number of shots where you see him both throw and land a punch can be counted on one hand. The rest of the time it's all lunge, sound effect, and cut to a different angle. I've tried hard to think of any redeeming features the film might have...and failed.
