Review On A Blog: I Watched The WATCHMEN
WATCHMEN
The Good:
Where to start? My being in comic book geek nirvana at being able to see this story on a big screen was almost enough to make me love this film sight unseen but after seeing it I have to admit that I loved it to pieces. First of all it was a beautiful film and director Zack Snyder outdid himself with so many awesome images that just slap you in the face with geeky goodness that I can hardly pick just one to single out but I will anyway...the opening credits were brilliant. They crammed in so much info (namely the entire saga of the Minutemen super team) from Alan Moore's graphic novel into such a short span of time that it was insane.
And a special shout out has to go to Jackie Earl Haley who embodied every nutjob inch of Rorschach as if he was born to play this role. He is the MVP of this flick.
The Bad:
Matthew Goode was a bad casting choice for the role of Ozymandias and his lack of gravitas really stood out during a very crucial portion of the movie. I also missed seeing more of the lives of some of the "regular" people in the WATCHMEN universe but I understand that some stuff had to be scrapped due to time constraints.
The Ugly:
There sure was an awful lot of blue penis in this movie.
But despite all of the twigs and berries I still give WATCHMEN four elephants jumping on a trampoline:
Oh yeah, I had to add this video because it makes me giggle uncontrollably:
