The best superhero book adaptation yet?

Rating: 9/10 (14 June 2019)

I've watched Watchmen many time, and it still impressed me every time. Today, I decided to watch the film once more, since I've just finished reading the original novel written by Alan Moore.
Watchmen is an amazing story, beautifully written, with deep meaning behind every words spoken. The message behind the novel is so powerful, and I think the film has done the novel justice. The first time I'd watched this film, I spent days thinking about it. And surprisingly, the older I became, the more I seem to understand what this story was trying to convey. Alan Moore, the man behind the graphic novel, is a true genius, making us question humanity and morality.
The film made some minor changes from the novel, and it worked. The changes make the film more believable in the real world. One of the changes they made that I absolutely loved is that of Adrian's master plan, from monsters destroying cities to Dr. Manhattan's outrage. With that, it makes the film even more dark and brutal.
While I loved the film, I'm not sure if I like the fight scene. It seems way too dramatic, in my opinion. The slow motion is kind of strange to me, and the movements of the characters when they were fighting look unnatural. However, all that didn't really bother me that much, since the fighting was not really the focus of the film.
The acting is mostly good. I think the casts played their parts really well, just like how they're portrayed in the novel, especially Jackie Earle Haley. He was perfectly casted as Rorschach. His voice, his gesture and his facial expression were on point. He mesmerized me every time he appeared on screen. Matthew Goode, who played Adrian Veidt, is my personal favorite. I like how he portrayed the character. He is not exactly like his novel counterpart, and I like that he seems to be more firm in his belief.
The musics are also wonderfully selected for each scene. I think the soundtrack alone is enough for anyone to invest their time on this film. Some may think that the music is rather out of place, but I think it's just perfect. It helps to convey emotions that the film maker wants us to feel in each scene.
In sum, I loved this film and the novel it's based on. If you haven't read the graphic novel yet, you should really give it a go. It's even better than the film. It's a masterpiece. The storytelling is beyond this world. I was never a fan of American comic books, but this film introduced me to it's novel, and sincerely, it didn't disappoint.
