Masterpiece... mutilated!

Rating: 2/10 (18 December 2006)

I can't believe what I just saw. This is one of the worst HQ adaptations I've ever seen! They simply mutilated the story, transforming a child into a grown woman (in the original story, she became a woman ALONG the plot), hundred thousands of dead into 80.000, the slow and complicated fall of a dictatorship into the most simple and clean transition of power ever (not one single person of the people got hurt, or had to do anything).
And mainly, they transformed the most ambiguous, complex, mysterious character (he never revealed his sex, or gave any signs of doubt in his actions or love for the girl) into a masked ninja like those seen by the dozens in Hollywood.
Alan Moore was right to deny any knowledge of this.
