Most people go in expecting a pure action thriller because of the trailer. Thats misleading. There was much much more to this movie than your average, mindless violence. For once there is a movie with a story. It has the best ending of any movie I have seen. Very gory but nothing like inglorious b-sterds. Only bad thing was a near r_pe scene. Kinda caught me off guard. A must see
I didn't read the book so I had no idea what to expect. The movie blew my mind. Every time I thought I had it solved It switched up on me. I loved every second of it.
Watchmen is easily the best movie ever. Only those super prude people go crying "oh its to violent and sextual." Yes there is definently one sex scene that is totally not needed but it WAS in the book. The movie followed the book amazingly. They had to take out alot of Rorschach's story which sucked but the only other difference that mattered was they changed the ending to fit better. Now i've seen the movie 3 times, read it 7 times, have posters and shirts and everything and i have to admit the ending is better in the movie. So look... the movies rated R for being graphic so dont see it and cry about it being to graphic. Great movie. Do not bring kids. Should be rated NC-17.
