Eh. It all depends.

Rating: 9/10 (6 March 2009)

I was really excited to see Wachmen. I went to see it tonight and I hated it, at first. I thought it was quite pointless because A) it was way too graphic and B) the plot doesn't show up until like 2/3 the way into the movie. I really have no criticism to give the movie except that they should have marketed it better. Many parents brought their young kids to see it because they thought it was going to be like The Dark Knight or Iron Man. Instead, you see tons of violence and gore. I don't think any of them expected that because during all of the previews, it showed the action portion of it. And, of course, everybody loves action, even young kids. Now, you gotta admit, this movie is packed with action. All throughout the movie, it kept me on the edge of my seat and constantly biting my nails (which I never do unless I'm watching a suspenseful movie.) Once I got home, thought about the movie, and researched it a little bit, I realized that it was really amazing and I'm glad I saw it. You have to look at it and think about it to see it's true beauty:)
