Movie Review
Grade: B-
It has been 43 years since Sean Connery first donned the role of James Bond, but he is still going strong. In The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, a sci-fi action movie based on a graphic novel, he plays a sharp-shooting British hero who seems as though he can survive just about any ordeal.

When it comes to action movies, this one has been one of the best. It's spectial effects weren't as good as those in the last Matrix or in Pirates of the Carribean, but the story is interesting and the amount of action make one feel like ignoring a cheesey visual affect or two.
