Wow...Zack Snyder has done the impossible. He filmed the "unfilmmable" film. Watchmen may be one of the greatest graphic novels ever written, but, did the film stay true to the novel? No doubt about it! I think Snyder has done the best job anyone could have done. It's clear that Zack Snyder has an immense understanding of the graphic novel. No one wanted to see a Watchmen movie that was not faithful to the graphic novel and Snyder has changed little. The biggest change was to the ending and even that change made more sense in the direction the movie was going. I don't think Watchmen is flawless, but what movie does not have any flaws? That said, Watchmen does indeed border on the same brilli

Great special affects, plenty of action. However, the characters do not have much brand recognition like the Marvel charaters. Dark movie.

Great movie! Thanks for sticking to the comic so closely!

A really great movie. The opening sequence with the Comedian and the title credits set the tone for the film, letting the audience know that we're watching an alternate reality of 1985. Some really great camera work, [especially in the opening], when the camera is outside the apartment building following the action inside, and you see the reflection of New York in the glass. Zack Snyder continues to use the speed up//slow down technique that he used a lot in 300. Jackie Earle Haley and Jeffrey Dean Morgan are standouts in this film. They were everything there characters should be. My only complaint was that the second act of the film dragged. So I was thinking of what I would cut out

Very enjoyable, with lots of action. Graphic were very well done and stunts. Unknown actors did very fine performances

Stayed true to the original story....if you were a fan of the book you will love this movie. Even non-readers of the book will enjoy this.

Special effects were excellent, but dialoque rather poor. No remarkable actors in this group.

The Watchmen was quite an enjoyable film. The special effects were impressive, the acting was believable, and there were quite an interesting collection of people cast for the various roles. Jackie Earle Haley stole the show as "Rorschach". He played his part to a tee! Some excellent lines from him in the film. Very much a tough guy, and nice to see him get his career back on track in recent years (an Oscar nomination for 2006's Little Children). I've been a fan of the guy all the way back to The Bad News Bears back in the 70s. All in all ... definitely a blockbuster film. Plus, the soundtrack/score was superb. You can't go wrong when you incorporate the likes of Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, an

I have never read the comic book series but after watching the movie it is based on, I am very interested. This is not your typical superhero movie with it's complex characters fighting for the general good of mankind. Each one of the heroes are trying to deal with his/her own demons. Two thumbs up.

First off, this is not a movie that you want to take your Kids to. It is very graphic. With that said I found it followed the graphic novel very well, it left out some story line from the book that was not really needed, and changed the ending. But I found that the new ending was more relevant for the movie and was ok with it.

Based on the epic graphic novel, Zack Snyder does a faithful adaptation that is quite successful. The tone of the film is dark and ironic much like the source material and it blends together dark humour, gore and a very alternate reality all with great aplomb. The acting and characterizations are much better than expected (Jackie Earle Haley IS Rorschach). But because Snyder was so dedicated to being faithful (and not being ripped apart by angry fanboys), some of the gravitas and urgency of the novel is gone. Fans of the graphic novel should watch this film if only to see this incredible world come to life, but it may be too obscure for the mainstream public. We will definitely have to

I don't know what I expected before seeing The Watchmen. At the very least it shattered all my expectations.The characters were real and not cartoony. The visual effects were stunning. What I found expecially contemplating was the psychological impact. It's a good thing The Watchmen wasn't released in 1985! :0

I really enjoyed it. The story line was good.

Visually the movie looked amazing. However, it was too long. They could have shaved 1/2 an hour off of it.

User review rating: 0 March 05, 2009

The graphics were awesome. The monotone dialogue was tiresome.

As a newcomer to Watchmen, I wasn't sure what to expect. What I saw was a fine companion piece to the Dark Knight. Though DK is definitely a stronger movie, the dark, uncompromising tone of Watchmen was impressive. And kudos to Jackie Earle Haley for turning in an outstanding performance!

The movie was interesting , but it was too long in duration . Unless you love fiction , you may find this movie boring .

User review rating: 0 March 05, 2009

A good film but somewhat hyped and over rated.

User review rating: 0 March 05, 2009

I did not know what to expect from Watchmen, besides what I saw in the trailers. I enjoyed the story very much. Visually impressive.

Okay so I saw “WATCHMEN”today I’m not usually a big comic book fan & didn’t know a lot about them, but the word. “Very Good” Story line introduces the characters well, special effects good, plot good. Rorschach is a maniac & some of his scenes are gory! Very gory! & I don’t mind gore, but holy sh*t there were a couple scenes that made me turn away….Jeffrey Dean Morgan as the “Comedian” was a bastard but a good bastard (most of the time).. Big picture, big expectations & it delivered, it was a blast!
