Nearly unwatchable

Rating: 1/10 (22 October 2005)

I had never heard of this movie, but the plot summary sounded intriguing and I decided to try it, since I grew up watching and loving movie monsters.
It's incredible that a story containing werewolves, Dracula, Frankenstein's monster etc. could actually be made to be B-O-R-I-N-G.
From Kate Beckinsdale's atrocious accent to an overdone Mr.Hyde (when did Mr.Hyde become a cross between Mighty Joe Young and the Incredible Hulk??) all backed by constant explosions and annoying noise, this movie has no redeeming values.
I love CGI, but not when it's the only premise of a film, and is used in place of plot and character development.
I tried twice to watch this movie, thinking perhaps I was being overly critical. I wasn't, and gave up both times. It reminded me way too much of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and that frightened me enough to make me grab the remote and end it all!
