How to ruin a Folklore legend

Rating: 1/10 (9 July 2002)

I was appalled to see that yet another version of the famous "Jack The Ripper" has come and was unsure as to how this one would pan out compared to the rest. Happily, it did not compare to the rest. This film not only took the legend that is "Jack The Ripper" and made it in a farcical romance but took a dimwitted view of the monarchy. How can the directors in their right mind sanctioned a film like this without doing their research. And on top of that, took the time to make out that a possible romance could have happened ?. If they think that they could get away with producing crap of this magnitude, then it is another attempt to "crap" on the English with a pathectic attempt to re-create what can only be described as "The most unsolved and greatest who-dunnit" in modern times. If anyone is thinking of renting this out, I would strongly advise against this as they will be dissappointed to the brink of switching it off. I hope that in the future, someone will take the time to make a version which contains a lot more of the facts and not pure speculation as this film did. THIS FILM SHOULD GO BACK TO HELL............IT WAS BAD
