Extraordinary Gentlemen show pushes star power past its shelf life
The film assembles icons from classic literature into a summer action misfire. Naseeruddin Shah s as Nemo and Jason Flemyng as Dr Jekyll anchor a scattershot cast including Peta Wilson Mina Harker Tony Curran as the Invisible Man and Shane West Tom Sawyer. Connery elder statesman figure lands some soft moments but the whole project feels oddly hollow and indulgent despite its ambitious lineup.
