La tecnología llevada a su lado más extremo y controlada por una mente endiablada está a punto de enfrentar a las diferentes naciones. Para luchar contra lo inimaginable, el gobierno británico tendrá que unir a un grupo de hombres extraordinarios que serán el único nexo entre el futuro y la destrucción total. Esta liga de superhéroes estará encabezada por Allan Quatermain y cuenta con algunos de los personajes más significativos e increíbles de la literatura de aventuras: el Capitán Nemo, la vampiresa Mina Harker, el hombre invisible Rodney Skinner, el agente secreto americano Sawyer, Dorian Gray y el Dr. Jeckyll / Mr. Hyde.

The most interesting and appealing thing about the whole movie is precisely the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. The characters are interesting, but unfortunately poorly developed and with weak psychology. The visual style is quite over-the-top, yet some action scenes are breathtaking (the opening in the hotel, the library) and Sean Connery is fortunately back in fantastic form. Unfortunately, the plot is quite weak and in the end, everything collapses like Venice under by several kilograms of dynamite. I don't really care about the submarine in narrow canals, but there are already quite a few plot clichés. Dr. Hyde was also extremely poorly done, and he's not even close to being the Hulk. As a pure action caper, it's too grandiose and theatrical, as a big epic comic-book adaptation, it's too linear and narratively inadequate. A frantic mix of everything, but solid as undemanding entertainment.

Está entre * y **, pero una película que toma por idiota al espectador no merece compromisos. Lo mejor de La liga de los hombres extraordinarios es el gigantesco submarino que surca los canales de Venecia. Y lo peor de la película es que no sólo los periodistas se cogían de la cabeza durante la proyección, sino también mi hermano de 14 años. La gran película más estúpida y sobrepagada de su género. Wild Wild West es una joya cinematográfica en comparación.

This film has passable visual effects and production design and that's about the only thing that can be praised at least a little bit. The plot is about what I would expect from popcorn entertainment. I didn't mind the giant submarine going around in the canals of Venice, a bit of exaggeration doesn't kill anyone and it's a comic book adaptation. But the chain demolition of houses in Venice was a slap in the face by the screenwriter. The Americans could have also spared us the forced “good boy” and representative of the heroes from the United States Tom Sawyer and Connery's daddy instincts. And why Nemo looked like Osama is also a mystery to me; the filmmakers apparently never saw the classic drawings by De Neuville, Verne's court illustrator. The result is a standard Hollywood prefabricated film, an ordinary one-off, which I swallowed, but I fell into a little bit of a stupor and a few minutes later I didn't know about it. Sean Connery promised Václav Havel that if the film turned out good, he would arrange a world premiere in Prague. And it happened. I feel like Mr. Connery is starting to lose his mind.

A demonstration of how to screw up a film. The theme provides so much poetry, humor and possible games that a clever director and screenwriter would be exulted by it, but Norrington and Robinson somehow noticed only the passing gloss. Lots of "well-known companies" from the canon of world literature and film fly across the screen, but apart from the names, we can't find anything extraordinary about them - they are just overwhelmed schemes without any magic or energy. Captain Nemo's terrorist beard, Dorian Gray's worldly goatee, Tom Sawyer's sparrow's nest... and then what? Then nothing; a wasteland, bad acting. If it doesn't work in the League, it can't even work in the surrounding units, and Norrington closes the store without a fight. The film is literally soaked in crappy digital effects that reduce the colorful and magical world of fin de siècle to a bunch of pre-rendered art. The story is absolutely bland, the villain is flat and Sir Connery's performance is, forgive me, completely necrophilic. The Americans are butchering well-known literary figures with great bravura; however, the British skunk Norrington puts the crown on it. Crap. Dreadful.

It’s too bad that I am familiar with the comic books - otherwise I might have added a star. The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is worth seeing for the great Connery, ILM's special effects, a great steam car and... And I don't think there's anything else. It’s too bad that they didn’t use Moore's comics, in which every field is literally overflowing with ideas. At least it went by quickly and was entertaining in a relaxing way.

Incredible film, I will never forget it. A hundred-metre long submarine cruising through magical Venice, the intrepid Indiana Jones senior Sean Connery, plus a vampire, a secret agent and an invisible man. It’s missing the Incredible Hulk and Iron Man, but tell me, can something like this be rated less than 3*? I would take it as an insult.

Probably the dumbest dialogue I've ever seen. The whole idea completely fell apart in their hands and what's left is stupid Hollywood drivel that is only watchable for the passable action and the hyped up version of Hyde at the end. If Blade had run in halfway through, I wouldn't have been surprised. Poor Moore.
