Reviews
Critics have generally given mixed to negative reviews of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (2000). On IMDb, the film holds a low rating of 4.4/10, with many viewers criticizing its pacing and lack of depth in character development. Some reviewers appreciated Adam Baldwin's committed performance as Dr. Jekyll, noting that he brought a certain gravitas to the role despite the film's limitations. However, others found the screenplay and direction uninspired and the special effects unconvincing. Rotten Tomatoes lacks a formal critics' score for this adaptation, which often suggests limited critical attention or impact. Metacritic also does not have an aggregated rating, indicating a more obscure release in mainstream critique circles. Overall, reviews suggest the film may appeal to hardcore fans of the story or genre but falls short as a compelling or innovative retelling. While not completely without merit, it is generally seen as a mediocre entry in the many adaptations of this classic tale.
