I had a hard time staying awake through it. It is a perfect example of what makes modern movies so pathetic. It isn't a "horrible movie", but it's got to be rating 2/10 to 5/10 depending on if you're harsh or generous as a critic.
What do I mean by "perfect example of what makes modern movies so pathetic"? The fact that it has all those effects, all that action, and still plods along in an annoying way. The chief problem is that writer guild writers, and published writers, are completely out of touch with 95% of the people, instead complying with the 5% of elite royalty, all of whom are out of touch.
No one can relate to anything any of the chief characters do, and it makes for a dull story, even duller when action is added, because it looks stupid. We can't help feeling embarrassed for the alleged artists involved.
What they have going for them is the ignorant youth that accept this as some sort of reality. They don't know what in the world is being said, but they like the action, so they adopt whatever goes with the action as a guideline to life. Unless they're in the top 5% with the silver spoon, they can't possibly achieve anything in reality.
In fact, movies like THE LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN would be better with no effects and little action, even if we can't relate to anything, even if no one reminds us of anyone we are involved with or look up to, because it wouldn't be so goofy looking.
I'm fairly generous, because there are so many worse movies, and I give it 4/10 or more like 3.55/10.
