Dude. This movie SUCKED. Perioud.

Firstly. Nemo was NOT FROM INDIA. He didn't have a turban or a beard!!!

Secondly. The Nautilus.. IN THE VENICE CANALS!? I don't think so! Full sized boats could not even navigate the canals! Argh!

The bad guy sucked too. Not even outrageously bad like the Indian Nemo and the suddenly wide-berth venice canals. He just was badly written, badly acted, just plain bad.

Plot? Slapdash to nonexistent. No-faced villian with mysterious fortune and influence sells extremely high tech weapons to 19th century Europe. By the end of the film you don't know where he got the power or influence to do this, only BARELY how he managed to actually design the weapons. Midway through the movie everything that was built up plotwise in the first half is tossed aside and replaced with a new focus.

The special effects were moderately okay in regards to Jekyll/Hyde and the Nautilus itself.. otherwise? *thumbs down*

Sorry, but I couldn't recommend this to anyone who actually likes good movies.

No offense to anyone intended! The preceeding was simply the opinion of a bitter cynic! Read with caution and do not swim until 90 minutes after reading!
