Oh also, 'deep vibration band'...Dr Manhatton, in the movie, DOES NOT know The Comedian is silk spectre 2's father and then he finds out when he reads her mind. Lol and i meant to put silk spectre not silver spectreeee! x
i really like this review i think its true and i certainly agree with the emotion. the only time i felt really emotional was at the end of the movie. Also i felt kind of scared in the cinema when silver spectre 1 was nearly raped by the comedian. The blows were harsh to her face and body. But overall, i agree. I enjoyed this movie but it wasnt the best i mean come on. x
I am usually very critical of Superhero type films, but I think in some aspects you are just a little over critical on your review. I may not have been the best superhero movie ever made, but it was much better than most of the Batmans and definitely better than either Hulk movie.
There were some scene sthat could have been deleted but I think it will be better integrated on the unrated DVD when released. Overall I would give the film an 8.5 out of 10.
However, i do not think it should be seen by young kids due to nudity / sex scenes, and the few gore scenes inbetween.
Of course you also do not want to want to spend the entire film attempting to explain who Nixon was, why they claim we won Vietnam, or what the Clock images mean (something many adults do not understand as I discovered.)
That are my only gripes about the story.
Overall though very entertaining. A better graphic novel than Sin City, Spirit, etc.
Also the sex scene is neccessary on the grounds that in the comic Dr Manahatton finds out that they are sleeping together which tears another threat between him and humanity and thus he goes to mars allowing pyramid transnational to complete their plan. and may i point out that it wasnt the director letting you down about the story and such, he took from the comic ... alan moore himself said that it was the best screenplay that couldve been written for the movie adaptation ... really, go read it
Oh my god, have you even read the comic book? and as to who silk spectres father is is important to the movie you fool, because Dr manhatton knows this and she doesnt which is part of what builds a tension between them.
so much more i want to rant about here but instead i will say ...
and just to add something else.. the whole penis thing with dr. manhattan was part of the novel... because if you hadn't notice.. as time progresses he grows away from humanity and human habits.. such as wearing clothes.. that's y he goes from wearing suits to wearing speedos.. to wearing nothing
okay obviously this guy doesn't appreciate good cinema or comics... although the movie wasn't filled wit non stop fight scenes.. the fight scenes were off the top and the whole plot was the reason y it was so celebrated.. if ur thinking about watching this move... i say dont listen to this guy
other than the corny sex scene and the shots of the blue penis, i think this was a great movie. the fight scenes and the gore were awsome. it makes me want to go out and get the graphic novel now.
Im a fan of the book...and I loved the movie. This is a great review for the general audience. It definitely takes a couple of viewings to grasp this style of super hero movie.
It's good that you still give it a 7/10. for most people it's either a 10/10 or 2/10. nothing in the middle. its good that you recognize elements to the film that make it great for some people.
I liked the review very well. Actually, one of the best and honest I have heard of the film. Im a Watchmen die-hard so I just want to clarify two things
1.Comedian is the Silk Spectre's father: It was needed to show that people with to complete moral compasses who seek justice are actually the closest people to each other. Also it was meant to add to the Comedian Character.
2. Blue Penis: He had in the comic more often but was done to a minimum in the film
Thank you for clarifying these things. Your comments are the kind I appreciate. I am interested in reading the comic books, but I'm just an avid movie-goer. I expect more from the visual medium.
U suck. I mean your mother must have dropped u on your head when u were a child. Plus I can understand saying Silver Spectre once but not through the whole thing. Also the reason u learn about the Comedian being Dad and everything is because its what makes Dr. Manhattan gain interest in life, because he is shocked that such an event could happen after he tried to rape her mom. DAMN! U R A DUMBASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hey man what about those of us who arent virgins....hahaha..i always wonder about the people on youtube who accuse people of being virgins..does that mean that you are in fact a virgin..i meen not that it matters either way......i think the movie was decent and i love the book..
You do realize the entire reason dr manhattan comes back is because he finds out about comedian being the dad. It sparks his interest in humanity again on how something so great can come from such an awful situation.
All the people who like this movie were right from what ive read. Idiots cant appreciate it because they cant follow the dialogue.
I just can't stand it when someone reviews a film without bothering to make sure they get their facts straight. It's really unprofessional and annoying.
We all make mistakes and I apologize for it. But seriously, it's not a mistake to get flustered over. It's a film, not a life-altering piece of information.
What I was referring to was information that didn't make a difference. If for example we found out Rorschach was from Chicago, would it have made an impact? No. That's what I'm referring to. And so you know I review films for a newspaper.
great review i didnt listen after the "spoiler" but i heard the ending i would have guessed a 7 out of 10 too. im not a watchman novel fan but im going to watch it and see how i like it, great review thanx fo uploading

This was complete bad movie. It's boring and too long. Sex scene was near Porno. Very tasteless.

"I don't know why" "I don't understand"
"I don't........"
If you don't then you've got no business reviewing the movie (which I thought was great even BEFORE I read the book).
I guess it takes an open mind to sit through a movie that isn't blowing something up every 10 seconds.
