havn't had chance to see it yet
very good
great !
Gerry -- completely agree. Watchmen was a masterful adaptation and as a huge fan of the graphic novel I could find very few things to fault. Except possibly that it may have been TOO faithful to the source and alienated some the non-initiated.
Watchmen was a huge let down as a graphic novel -- sorry Alan Moore, but your genius just didn't shine through here. The plot wasn't anything unique; the characters, except for Rorschach, were flat. I don't understand why it's so highly regarded.
Fans of the original work were too harsh on this faithful and well done adaptation of the graphic novel.
