Authentic,thrilling, London in the day of the "Ripper"

Rating: Null/10 (11 November 2001)

I could almost feel the rain, the cobblestones, and ... the blood. The Hughes brothers have done a great job with Victorian London. Lots of blood, gore and sharp medical instruments. The workhouses and the london hospital were obviously well researched. Johnny Depp was believable as the opium influenced Sherlockian inspector on the trail of the Ripper. Robbie Coltrane and Jason Flemyng were well cast. Well worth seeing.
