Please, don't criticize what you don't know....

Rating: Null/10 (5 March 2009)

I am asking anyone who wants to go see this film, to PLEASE familiarize yourself of the storyline, and characters before you see it. It has a very deep story, very complex characters, and not for the soft-hearted. This story came from a comic novel. It us unlike the superheroes that you have heard so much about.
I ask you to either or both read the novel, or watch the DVD Watchmen: The Motion Comic. All 12 chapters are on the 2 disc set, and it will give you all the perspective of the movie, you will not be lost. OR, at the very least go to all the websites that are supporting the movie, and read of the main storyline, and characters.
I don't see how people can criticize something, so badly, that they nothing about. All they seen on the trailers was costumed people, and action sequences, and thought that it was going to entertain them. However, they did not see the big, huge letters on the screen pointing out it was from a graphic novel.
That is just my assessment, and opinion. I just hope folks heed it..to some degree. This is a very good story. Not a ton of action, but still very very good.
