Watchmen

I went into that theatre with VERY high expectations. Boy HOWDY was I not disappointed:) It was the fastest three hours of my life! It was well cast and incredibly well adapted. There are pluses and minuses to having read or not read the graphic novel before seeing the movie. Having read it, I was able to glean a lot more of the subtle shoutouts from the comic book. However, I was not surprised by the crazy awesome plot twists. So, ya know, it's a toss up. But for me, I'm glad I'd read it. I liked knowing what to expect, because that movie gets a little (okay, a lot) crazy:)

2 musings:

Hey. I saw Watchman and I wasn't that big of a fan. It was Cool and all but I guess I was expecting more action.
