5.0 out of 5 stars Freaky, smart movie
Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2023

This is a fun movie. I'm not a big horror movie fan, but this was well done. Do a quick Google search on Jack the Ripper and the FreeMasons before watching and you'll enjoy it much more than if you go in with no prior knowledge. Have a basic understanding of opium addiction and psychiatry in the late 1800's as well.

The accents can be hard to understand at times, which makes it challenging to follow the story or pick up on sarcasm. Johnny Depp is a master of his craft. He is well suited for roles like this. His accent was particularly annoying at times, but you get used to it.

Movies like this really put life into perspective. Sure, it's entertainment, but it's also a good reminder that life isn't nearly as bad as it once was for certain people throughout history.

5.0 out of 5 stars From Hell - Murder By Decree
Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2001

To clear up a misconception about the title of the film - "From Hell" is a quote from a letter that Jack The Ripper sent to the police. It is the one letter that most experts agree is actually from the Ripper. This is briefly shown in the film as part of the evidence.
The whole idea of the motivation for the killings in this film is not new. There is a film, "Murder By Decree", about Sherlock Holmes going after the Ripper with the same motivation for the killings as in "From Hell". The idea that the women killed by Jack were all witnesses to the Roman Catholic marriage of the Prince and prostitute who then produced a child, is the same in both films. Both of the girls end up in an asylum unable to communicate with the outside world. If it were known by the outside world that there was a Catholic heir to the throne of England, it would have torn the country apart. In both films, the Ripper carrying out orders from higher authority. In both there is also a link to the Masons. Perhaps this is not such a fantastic premise. In one of the many books on the actual Ripper, Abberline, the actual detective on the case, is quoted as saying that they did know who the Ripper was, but could do nothing because of who he was.
Taking all this into consideration, "From Hell" is an excellent film. The atmosphere of Victorian London is extremely well presented. It might, in other production hands, have turned into a slasher film, but the killings are not that sensational. There are very quick glimses of bodies and quick cuts away from them. They are based on the actual autopsy photos of the victims (and there are existing photos of all the bodies). The acting by all the performers is excellent, not one false note from any of them. The most appealing character is Heather Graham as Mary Kelly, the last of the victims. Her romance with Johnny Depp as Abberline (named after the real person, but not at all like the actual man) is extremely well handled.
There are some excellent surprises in the resolution of the story that are extremely plausible leading to a bittersweet ending.
A recommendation is to view both this film and the Sherlock Holmes "Murder By Decree". Both are excellent films and well worth the comparison.

4.0 out of 5 stars From Hell: Director's Limited Edition
Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2009

Please note: I'm here reviewing the two-disc "Director's Limited Edition."

It's hard to believe this movie's almost ten years old; seems like yesterday it was released, but it was filmed in 2001. Other than the fact that it co-stars Heather Graham (who hasn't co-headlined a major motion picture in quite some time), there's very little about this film which seems dated. In fact it's probably improved with age. Staying close to the template of "Se7en," producers-directors the Hughes Brothers adapt Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell's graphic novel with aplomb, bringing the late 19th Century to life in all its opium-den decadence.

I'm sure a lot of viewers have issues with how this movie strays from the source material, but I prefer to look at it as a wholly separate entity. And it works well. In Moore's version the reader quickly knows who Jack the Ripper is, but the Hughes Brothers make this more of a traditional mystery. The viewer can, however, pretty easily figure out who the murderer is. You can expect that this film will be violent - any movie about Jack the Ripper would have to be - but it reminded me more of "Chinatown" than anything else. The web of intrigue, period details, and twisted conspiracies are all very well panned out and executed, making this much more than the grisly hackwork it could've become.

Acting is good throughout - Johnny Depp is fantastic as usual in his role, as is Heather Graham, though I have to wonder why the producers couldn't at least have gotten an English actress for the role. The actor playing Jack the Ripper is as malevolent as you could want, and I love the detail of his expanded irises when he's in "Ripper" mode, as if he's a demon in human guise. The Hughes' directing is also stylish and confident - lots of tracking shots and well-done establishing shots which pull you into the sordid world of 1880s London. I also appreciate how they filmed the gruesome murder scenes, leaving much to the viewer's imagination. Again, this could've easily become some cheap gorefest, but the Hughes have made it a bit more highbrow, going for a macabre approach that works perfectly for the material. The things the Ripper did to his victims were unthinkable, and certainly unfilmable - certainly things I'd never want to see in a film, at least.

But let's talk about the drugs. I'm all about the mystique of those Victorian-era opium dens, with the velvet walls and plush rugs and languorous addicts puffing away in contentment. Depp's character is an opium addict, so we get a few scenes in Chinese-operated dens, and the Hughes brothers bring these places fully to life. And since Depp's character solves his cases via opium-induced trances, we get a neat tripping scene, complete with worshipful close-ups of an opium pipe being prepared, fired up, and toked. But the later absinthe scene goes even further, and glorifies drug use moreso than any other scene in recent film. Depp prepares a glass of absinthe in the classic "Prague ritual" method, with laudanum-dosed sugar cube placed over a slotted spoon, doused with fire, and then plunged into the drink itself. This scene about made me want to rush out and buy an overpriced bottle of absinthe. In fact, I'm still considering it.

I'd say this movie is a good purchase, as it is one you could watch at least a few times. The first viewing you're moreso occupied keeping up with who's who, figuring out who the Ripper is, and piecing together the strands of conspiracy. And it is an enjoyable movie, despite the subject matter and the numerous prostitute-butcherings. It even has a somewhat "happy" ending that doesn't seem tacked on just to appease the Middle American market.

As for the DVD release, the movie is on disc 1 and looks and sounds great. Disc 1 also features a plethora of deleted scenes, none of which are more than two minutes long. There are about twenty of them, and they're basically little pieces that either set up scenes or provide more resolution for others. None of them stand out, and none of them were integral to the movie. That being said, since none of them are that pertinent, they could've easily been integrated back into the film, which would've truly given us the "Director's" edition promised on the cover. The only incongruous scene is the one that couldn't be integrated back into the film - an alternate ending which is the same as the one in the film itself, only taking place in a different location and a different time. It's filmed in a gorgeous Shanghai opium den (complete with a gorgeous and nude Chinese woman, about whose rear Hughes expounds upon at length in the optional commentary) and has some of the best shots in the film, but was understandably dropped in favor of the "real" ending.

Disc 2 features several making-of documentaries, including one about the Moore/Campbell graphic novel, a "tour of the murder sites" (which is a tour of the film's set rather than the actual murder locations in London), a "first look" documentary hosted by Heather Graham (which features the most annoying camera pans and zooms this side of MTV), and an insider's view into absinthe (which was still illegal when this film was made, but is now legal pretty much everywhere...even here in the US! Yep, I'm gonna buy that bottle after all.).

Handlung :

Der Polizeiinspektor Frederick Abberline arbeitet Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts im viktorianischen London. Er verlor seine Ehefrau und seinen Sohn bei dessen Geburt und konsumiert Opium (auch in Form von Laudanum), wobei er im Rauschzustand unter anderem Visionen der von ihm bearbeiteten Fälle bekommt.

Abberline untersucht im Sommer 1888 die Morde an mehreren Prostituierten im Londoner Stadtteil Whitechapel, die der im Laufe des Films so benannte Jack the Ripper begeht. Er lernt die Prostituierte Mary Kelly kennen, die die Mordopfer gut kannte, da sie Freundinnen von ihr waren. Kelly und Abberline kommen sich dabei näher.

Durch diverse Anhaltspunkte stellt sich heraus, dass der Mörder wohlhabend und mit weitreichenden anatomischen Kenntnissen ausgestattet sein muss. Eine Verschwörung der Freimaurer, deren Mitglied Abberlines Vorgesetzter Sir Charles Warren ist, behindert die Ermittlungen. Abberline findet trotzdem heraus, dass hinter den Morden der Adelige Sir William Gull steckt. Dieser ist der Leibarzt der königlichen Familie und ebenfalls Mitglied der Freimaurerloge. Gull wollte die Existenz der ehelichen Tochter Alice des Thronfolgers Albert Victor mit Ann Crook, einer Frau niederen Standes, vertuschen, da deren Kinder Anspruch auf den englischen Thron gehabt hätten. Alle sechs der ermordeten Frauen waren bei der Trauung anwesend gewesen und hätten deshalb Kenntnis von Alices wahrer Identität haben können. Als Strafe für die Morde und zur Vertuschung ihrer eigenen Rolle in der Affäre unterziehen die Freimaurer Gull am Ende einer primitiven Form der Lobotomie.

Allerdings wurde statt der vermuteten Mary Kelly eine Bekannte aus Belgien – Ada – ermordet, ohne dass das Gull aufgefallen wäre. Um Mary vor den Freimaurern zu schützen, entschließt sich Abberline, der Gulls Irrtum erkennt, dies jedoch unter Verschluss hält, seinem Leben ein Ende zu setzen, indem er eine Überdosis Opium einnimmt. Mary Kelly dagegen ist in ihre irische Heimat geflüchtet, um Alice großzuziehen. In seiner letzten Vision sieht Abberline Mary Kelly, die mit der älter gewordenen Alice in einem Haus am Meer lebt. Nachdem er aus der Vision aufwacht, stirbt er in einer Opiumhöhle. Sein Mitarbeiter Godley findet ihn und legt ihm zwei Münzen für den Fährmann auf die Augen, so wie es Abberline zuvor beim Leichnam Annie Chapmans gemacht hatte.

Fazit :

✅ spannend
✅ kultig
✅ blutig
✅ Klassiker
✅ Top Besetzung

If you're a stickler for historical accuracy or feel that screen adaptations of graphic novels must be completely faithful to the source material, you should probably steer clear of 'From Hell', If, however, you want a well acted, visually stunning and thoroughly absorbing film about the Jack the Ripper murders, this ticks all the right boxes.

Originally released in 2001, 'From Hell's' plot is based on the widely discredited, but highly entertaining royal/masonic conspiracy theory. Johnny Depp and Heather Graham are excellent in the lead roles of Detective Abberline and Mary Kelly (even if the former's accent sounds closer to Australian than Cockney at times!) and are ably assisted by a strong supporting cast, all in flawless period costume. The dark, eerie streets of Victorian Whitechapel have been beautifully recreated with a creepy atmosphere throughout, though the film majors in gore rather than genuine scares.

The picture and sound quality of this Blu-ray are superb and a definite improvement on the Special Edition DVD, despite being comparatively light on extras. Highly recommended to anyone interested in the Whitechapel murders of 1888 and fans of dark, atmospheric crime drama's in general.
