Great Story and Character Development,

Rating: 8/10 (18 July 2013)

Watchmen is a fantastic movie with a brilliant and extremely well developed storyline,a very talented cast and a really interesting characters.I have never read the novel,but after watching this movie I really want to,because I really got into the movies characters and was really impressed with the development and the way the story is told,and the novel is obviously much better,I heard this was a bit of a disappointment to fans,which makes me really anxious to compare them.My favourite character in this was Rorschach,I cared about what happened to him all the way through,Jackie Earle Haley plays him with great passion,and even though the voice similarity with Christian Bale's Batman bothered me at times,I still really loved this character.Fans of more dark superhero movies,like Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy or Man of Steel,will really enjoy this movie.
