Description

A complex, multi-layered mystery adventure, "Watchmen" is set in an alternate 1985 America in which costumed superheroes are part of the fabric of everyday society, and the Doomsday Clock--which charts the USA's tension with the Soviet Union--moves closer to midnight. When one of his former colleagues is murdered, the outlawed but no less determined masked vigilante Rorschach sets out to uncover a plot to kill and discredit all past and present superheroes. As he reconnects with his former crime-fighting legion--a disbanded group of retired superheroes, only one of whom has true powers--Rorschach glimpses a wide-ranging and disturbing conspiracy with links to their shared past and catastrophic consequences for the future. Their mission is to watch over humanity...but who is watching the Watchmen?

    Snyder does it again, bringing this epic story to life. One of the best comic book stories ever created, well translated to live action. Great acting, great action, great story telling, just a epic movie of the human race human condition. It’s all a joke. Own it.
  • SERIOUSLY UNDERRATED!!!

    If you like superheroes with dark and complex stories then I recommend you watch Watchmen. I don’t know why it doesn’t get as much love as it should, it was pretty faithful to the graphic novel like I say it was like 95% of what happened in graphic novel is in this movie. The reason I give it a four instead of a five is because I don’t like that Doctor Manhattan is naked most of the time he’s in it, I understand that’s the character in the graphic novel but maybe do more tell and less show.

    Yes I have read the graphic novel and people expect these line for line exact replicas but this interpretation is just fine and Zak Snyder’s style works perfect. Dr Manhattan and Rorschach are just stand out performances and everyone else is good. It’s not perfect but it’s worth the watch.
  • Good!

    This is not an action hero movie. It is most appreciated by comic book fans who are familiar with the actual story line. Based on the 4 and 5 star reviews, they love it! For the rest of us though, there’s not much to like....its dark, hard to follow and depressing. No actual heroes, no action, nothing like you might expect or want to see.
  • Probably one of the worst movies

    Watchmen is Zack Snyder’s best movie he’s made, perhaps close to being a masterpiece. The performances were great from Patrick Wilson to Jackie Earle Haley. Doctor Manhattan is such a cool and interesting character, and I loved his depiction in the movie. It was very accurate to the comic, until the end, but that’s not a big issue. The soundtrack is cool, and the story is great! Watchmen is Zack Snyder’s best movie he ever made!!!
