Incredibly fast-paced videogame. I have never ever before agreed on the saying "it is like a videogame" about any movies. But this really is. Why does Mr. Hyde move like a stupid Chimpanzee? Why do we hear fast action music eve when we should not? It felt we have that inappropriately placed (otherwise not bad) music in some places just because the director could not come up with anything explosive in those scenes. But however fast this movie was, it was quite boring. it is easier to start sleeping during constant gunfire than when we do not have explosions every minute. Before Van Helsing and The Day After Tomorrow I thought Emmerich and Sommers are just the same poor Spielberg-imitators. But Emmerich is much higher quality, and this is not a praise for him...
