A great action graphic novel (by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons) brought to film by Zack Snyder (also directed 300). Oh and for the record, yes this movie is indeed graphic, from protruding bones to well, you'll just have to watch to see what else is showing. Now I know this movie is been for what seems like a while and I actually watched it when it first came out (Midnight, CST), but the first time I was pretty caught up in the action and other graphic scenes, and may have missed some of the dialogue, but the running commentary coming from my right. This, by the way, was OK because I was able to have addition details to fill in some gaps without having to read the actual novel, WOO! Watching Watchmen, (to me), was just as entertaining as watching Iron Man and The Dark Knight, it showed people using their talents in a "constructive" manner, while humanizing them (unlike Superman, a good superhero, but unrealistic) with good days and bad days. So enjoy the movie, if you feeling a little squeamish, just rememberÂ…it's only a movie and that goes the same for those wishing their man was just a little bigger.
