Yes, I am posting my review for Watchmen in horror....for a reason

[Rosemary's Baby]

Okay, my turn. Knowing nothing at all about the graphic novel, I went into this movie thinking, comic book movie. I liked Spiderman & Batman & Superman (once upon a time). This movie is NOTHING like them. The whole thing is very dark in atmosphere & tone. There is little to no hope through the whole thing. It is very boring in some parts & very graphic in some parts.

Couldn't they have bought that man a pair of underwear???? Or hell, he could have made some. They were a lot of blue penis shots, which did nothing to further the story line. In fact, it detracted from the story. It was almost as if we weren't supposed to consider it a real penis since it was blue. Watching a sex scene in a full theater was also very uncomfortable to me.

I found a hole in the plot...Just in case anyone gets ticked off...

Spoiler

John is supposed to be working on this huge project as a physicist. He forgets his watch and walks into the room when they are testing whatever it is?? Obviously, he had just been there, as he had left his watch. Did he forget they were going to test? And, they were testing when no one was there?

If you liked the graphic novel, you'll probably love the movie. Gore fans will love the special effects. I won't say that I hated it, but I am not overly fond. Loki is trying to convince me I'll like it better if I see it again. I say Pulp Fiction several times & still don't like it.

And, it's long! I'm not going to say, don't go see it. Just be aware of what you're going to go & sit through.
