Editorial Reviews

300's Zack Snyder brings Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' critically acclaimed comic book Watchmen to the big screen, courtesy of DC Comics and Warner Bros. Pictures. Set in an alternate universe circa 1985, the film's world is a highly unstable one where a nuclear war is imminent between America and Russia. Superheroes have long been made to hang up their tights thanks to the government-sponsored Keene Act, but that all changes with the death of The Comedian (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), a robust ex-hero commando whose mysterious free fall out a window perks the interest of one of the country's last remaining vigilantes, Rorschach (Jackie Earle Haley). His investigation leads him to caution many of his other former costumed colleagues, including Dr. Manhattan, Night Owl (Patrick Wilson), Ozymandias (Matthew Goode), Sally Jupiter (Carla Gugino), and her daughter, The Silk Spectre (Malin Akerman). Heralded for bringing the world of superheroes into the literary world, Watchmen gave the super-powered mythos a real-life grounding that had been missing in mainstream comics to that point. The film adaptation had languished in one form of development hell or another for years after the book's release, with various directors on and off the project, including Terry Gilliam, David Hayter, and Darren Aronofsky, as well as Paul Greengrass, whose eventual dismissal stemmed from budget conflicts with the studio.

You thought you knew superhero's?by Anonymous

September 12, 2009: Think again. All superhero and sci-fi movies have characteristics that make them what they are. The reserved, troubled, unassuming superhero that steps up to save the world, kicking ass along the way, while occasionally getting his or her ass kicked as well (Must set up those emotional comebacks!). The awesome, unknowable force that can implode space and time, or genetically restructure entire species. We know these movies are like this, and Watchmen embodies these kinds of plot strategies with gusto. But Watchmen provides a little touched center. The innate brutality that exists in people - good, heroic types as well as the villains. Each of the characters in this movie display the ugly, savage, self-centered id that resides in each of us without trying to apologize for it. That is what I call refreshing. From Silk Spectre's self-righteous, I-know-it-allness to Night Owl's wimpish condescension. From Dr. Manhattan's human-undermined godhood to the Comedian's sheer, ecstatic savagery, this movie offers something which is truly different and fun. May more movies of this genre stretch the limits of decency!

August 31, 2009: The movie was brilliant. It leaves you open to discuss life on many levels. From human interaction to global politics. In a what could have been world the viewer gets a chance to look inside the characters, governments and and yourself. The visuals are great. The story has a fantastic edge but sections are still believable. Like a Dan Brown novel. Every aspect from the acting and directing to the brilliant writing and cinematography is great. It will appeal to those who want pure escapism to anyone willing to dig into the social and personal commentary.
