I love the comic more than any comic or book I have ever read. For the last 30 years a small number of producers have wanted to make this film, but everyone else said "it was impossible and unfilmable." But its finally been done by none other then Zach Snyder, the genius behind 300.

So let me start by saying, it is the most stunningly beautiful film you will ever see. The cinematography alone is beyond anything previously made. As for the movie, it pays perfect homage to the graphic novel, taking the material and changing it just enough to work with film. Looking at the source however, I'm truly surprised it came out so good and am certain it will offend quite a number of people for its gore and content.

I watched it in Imax on the night of it's release, 12:00 in the morning and walked out of the cinema 3 hours later breathing the night's air and wishing it wasn't over. This is not a movie for idiots, superhero fan's, or people looking for a simple plot. This is a move for someone looking for a rich and deep portrayal of humans, with an added dose of violence to appease your dark side. And for what it is no one could have done better. Also I agree with Zach, I hope Alan Moore will one day watch it, he'll realize it does justice to his comic....

So in closing I urge you to watch the Watchmen, you will not be disappointed.

I never cry at movies! but i did with this one, not just because it's sad, but because it's a masterpiece, a film that only comes along once a decade, a movie that pulls you along. And sweeps you off your feet!
