The opening sequence was interesting, and Quartermain's introduction was good, but from there on the film spiraled downwards. It looked good, and the performances were up to par, but the story...yet another big film let down by slack story. A quick sample of some of the logic flaws: * If Professor Moriarty is the bad guy, then logically shouldn't Sherlock Holmes be around? Even if Moriarty is picking the League (and I know he wouldn't pick Holmes) wouldn't Holmes find out about it? And how could you the ultimate crime fighting League without Holmes? * If Moriarty's plan is to get a sample of various characters DNA or whatever, why can't he just visit them himself? With the exception of the Vampire and Mr.Hyde (which Dorian Grey could get) none of them are hard to find or dangerous to Moriarty, until he puts them all together. Maybe Nemo's sub would prove more difficult but not impossible. Certainly it would be less trouble than the overly elaborate scheme we are presented with here.
I wanted this to be a good film, but it wasn't. 3/10
