Watchmen

Not much of a date film.

General conclusion: once is enough. Not recommended for those who weren't going to see it anyway.

Not deliberately spoilery stuff below the fold


I'd say not quite so faithful to the comic as Sin City, but they did a fine job with it.

The Kovacs story line gets short changed a bit; his baptism is pretty weak. For that matter, so is Osterman's.

I can't imagine that the opening makes any sense at all to people who watch the movie without reading the book first - or at least without a native guide.

Why does the world's smartest man have a password that easy to crack? "Because it was in the book" is a shitty answer.

Laurie Jupiter is much better looking than Silk Spectre II.

Blue comic book characters make me feel inadequate. There, I said it.
