Fans of literary classics and fantasy comic books like the "X-Men" will at least be entertained by this creative, action packed adventure based on the graphic novel miniseries by Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill. The year is 1899. Queen Victoria has assembled a team of evil-fighting heroes known as "The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen." These men (and one woman) possess extraordinary talents and powers that help them take on the evil Fantom, who has tricked several European countries into war with each other. Among them are master hunter Allan Quatermain (Connery); scientist and vampiress Mina Harker (Wilson); ageless, but secretive, Dorian Grey (Townsend); vessel operator Captain Nemo (Shah); The Invisible Man (Curran); and even Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (Flemyng). (Suzanne Hodges)
