Sean Connery leads a stellar cast in this breathtaking, "thrill-a-minute" (Jeffrey Lyons, NBC-TV) extravaganza loaded with "eye-popping effects and amazing action!" (Bill Bregoli, Westwood One) Reader Reviews The year 1899, the world under threat of war. World war. England calls to her hero Allan Quatermain (Sean Connery). Will he head the call? And who else may join to form the league of extraordinary gentlemen Great concept for a comic book, however never had a chance as a movie. Where do I start? The story (no plot) had no chance from the start. The graphics were substandard. The dialog was stilted. The fighting was poorly choreographed. The music was forgettable. However the hokey costumes were a quite amusing. I always thought Sean Connery could make any movie work until now. On the plus side Peta Wilson could be a modern day Emma Peel "The Avengers" (1961 TV series) Avengers '66: Vol. 1 The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Vol. 1
