Who watched the Watchmen? Me, that's who!
Mar. 6th, 2009 10:24 pmWent and saw Watchmen today.
Overall, I'd say it was a pretty good movie. It's got more pluses to it, than negatives. Some of the casting choices were so-so and I don't think any of the performers had any real screen presence, but that's just me being nitpicky. I didn't care for the ending, the bit with Laurie and Dan not adopting new secret identities, but didn't have a problem with the other changes. Altogether, I thought it flowed quite well and the director did a good job. On the Melworks Scale of Movie Love, I'd give Watchman a solid 5. It was enjoyable, probably worth paying full price for, but I'm not sure it would stand up to repeat viewings and, honestly, I don't think it'll stay in the theaters that long.
