Quite disappointing, I thought.

It is possible to do an entertaining action movie without completely ignoring the laws of physics (even in the context of the supernatural); or having plot holes so big you can sail the Nautilus right through them....

Some fun to be had, but I'd rate it a rental.

I watched at home after a long slog at work, nothing nothing about it, or said graphic novel.
I thought it was good fun, as I approached it with no idea what the plot was...so when they enter Dorian's house and there's a picture missing I thought it was an in joke. But never mind it wasn't.
the fight betwixt the two Hyde's was highly reminiscent of the Mines of Moria malarky, Seean Connery washhhhhhh fine ,
yeah I liked it!
7 out of 10 good fun :)
