Ok, so I saw Watchmen last night and loved it. Expectations have been pretty high for this film, and I went into it not really knowing what to expect. I knew a little about the story, (now I really want to read the graphic novel), and of course I had heard some of the hype, but I have to say I was surprised how much I liked it.
Firstly, it was visually stunning. The opening credits in particular were fabulous, and so many of the shots looked as if they were pulled directly from the panel of a comic book. The CGI was amazing...you never felt as if you were pulled out of the story due to poor CGI.
The characters were also wonderful, and I felt that most of the parts were perfectly cast. Matthew Goode would probably not been my first choice to play Adrian Veidt, but for the most part, everyone else seemed perfect for their roles.
The story was refreshing too. Much different from your typical Hollywood superhero movie, this one had it all. Lots of gratuitous violence and nudity, steamy sex scenes, and plenty of dark comedy laughs. What else could you ask for from a superhero movie? LOL
See the film. I enjoyed this one more than any I have seen in a while. And don't wait until it comes out on DVD. This one deserves to be enjoyed in the theater with a big tub of popcorn. ;)
