No complaints here, good copy, good movie, although it deviates quite a bit from Alan Moore's comics in some areas. Quartermain is hooked on opium in the comics, and it often causes problems as far as the safety of the rest of the team. In fact, all of the members of the League in the comic books have problems that tend to come to the forefront and cause problems for everyone, and the only one that was even hinted at in the movie was Jekyll's, which had to be included. Still, I enjoyed the movie, the special effects were well done, the story reminded me of the old 5 cent matinee cliffhangers from the 40s and 50s, as did many of the sets. I thought the Nautilus was well done, and all of the actors worked well for their characters. Alot of people won't like it because it tends to be more quaint and old fashioned than movies like T3 and even Pirates, but I enjoyed it.
As far as this copy, nice crisp picture for the most part. It was dark, but it's obvious from watching the movie that quite a few scenes are dark. The sound was great, nothing to complain about there at all. I'll likely watch it again with my wife and see what she thinks of it.
