"The Hughes brothers take a lush, atmospheric approach to the tale, positing an engaging whodunit beneath a gorgeously realized London. They do a fine job realizing the tale's romantic aspects - the fog-shrouded streets, the haunted moon, the Ripper with his bag and top hat - without overwhelming the mystery. Strong supporting performances from some fine British actors (topped by Robbie Coltrane as Abberline's keeper/assistant) round out the lovely visuals. From Hell has a good eye for historical detail, contrasting nicely with story's sensationalist aspects. The plot here is pure fantasy, and yet fits the facts... The brothers do an admirable job of balancing myth with fact, and keep their story neatly ensconced with the historical details of the case." - Rob Vaux, Flipside Movie Emporium
