Don't Watchmen

Rating: 5/10 (8 September 2019)

Some nice costumes, some good characters caught up in a confused muddle of soporific pontificating and philosophies, God complexes and self loathing. Some good action scenes with excessive and patently unnecessary gore. Many boring boring talking heads scenes and generally convoluted and meandering script.
The pacing is perfectly bad up until the end where the world is decimated by horrific mass genocide in key cities across the globe which leads to all the survivors singing Kumbaya and holding hands. But no, that's not the final scene. The final scene is one of a boring domestic interaction set in one of those cities with no evidence of the recent genocide and destruction. I guess the point of it all is that it dreary little ant-like lives continue even after God kicks our anthill over. Or some such drivel...
