Leave your thoughts about The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
| FilmsInReview.comVictoria AlexanderConnery chews the scenery, beats up everybody in sight, and tries to bully his co-stars into acting. |
| Sunday Times (Australia)Shannon J. Harvey. As a more popular 19th-century author, Robert Frost, said: "Poetry is what is lost in translation." They've certainly lost it here. . |
| Good Morning AmericaJoel SiegelWhen you have time to think these thoughts while you're watching $100 million+ explode on a screen, that's one more sign the movie doesn't work. |
| London Evening StandardNeil NormanSadly, the rot sets in just over the halfway mark when the action loses its identity of fustian heroism and degenerates into another arcade video game of mundane destruction. A pity. |
| Eclipse MagazineSean O'ConnellA noticeable absence of common sense overpowers the inherent sense of adventure. |
| Wall Street JournalCollin LeveyIn a summer of high-octane action and testosterone-boosted thrills, this movie is out of its league. |
| New York PostMegan LehmannSuspension of disbelief is as necessary as popcorn when approaching a summer comic-book movie, but LXG is too preposterous even for this fantastical genre. |
| Reel.comSarah ChaunceyWhether League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is true to the comics upon which it's based, I can't say. On its own, however, this film is very, very ordinary. |
| Flipside Movie EmporiumRob VauxThe subject matter of LXG demands an intelligent approach... You simply can't marry such a literary conceit with the simplistic needs of an event picture. |
| Bangor Daily News (Maine)Christopher SmithA summer blockbuster as overstuffed as a WWE locker room, but with none of the fun and all of the odor. |
