I actually have to disagree with the beginning portion with you hunn. And this is coming from myself, who never read the comics. I felt it still left a stiffling and controversial question for the audience. Both morally and questioning ones own values. The concept of sacrificing millions even to save billions and what is true justice. It still raised the questions, it only had certain characters like Rorschach, as physical answers to those questions.

[silverlightsaber]

They slanted Daniel to attack Adrian and say "You've mutilated humanity" to imply what Adrian did was wrong whereas in the book he lies naked next to Laurie showing his insecurity and helplessness. The movie still posed moral questions but not as effectively as the book. I felt more moved by TDK. In both cases a lie provides peace but in TDK Batman sacrifices himself to be the hero. I think they both pose similar moral questions, just in different ways.

so if i did not read the comics I'm not entitled to an opinion about this film .

and every person wanna see this film must read the comic first, to understand it and enjoy it

this is what you are saying ...

[silverlightsaber]

No. That is not what I said. If you haven't read the source material (for any movie), you don't have the proper evidence to back up a critical opinion. I think you missed my point.

[realtide]

I always enjoy your vids,thoughts and opinions. However, I have to disagree... A film is another medium to tell story and should stand alone- communicate its message if it will, entertain and tell a story. A movie stands alone for critism either negative or positive. Just my opinion- anyways always looking forward to your vids

[silverlightsaber]

I agree with that. I'm simply saying that when a movie is based on source material, it remains difficult for it to stand alone and separate itself without harsh criticism. Few films accomplish that (ex. "The Shining," "The Godfather," The Crow," etc.).

It was a really good film and I agree NO child should see it. In the theater I was at a 3-6 year old child was there and I couldn't believe it.

Really good review!

[therealmanos]

Thank you for a well balanced and smart review for this amazing film.

[DrummerLordProdigy]

i love the book. long live the watchmen.

[lulukunu]

i loved the movie but did roshack die in the book?

[GrayWoIf]

Alan Moore doesn't like any of his work turned to film but I loved Watchmen I myself have the Director's Cut on Blu-Ray as well as V For Vendetta I love both. I haven't read V for Vendetta but I have read Watchmen and I felt Zack Snyder did his best and I enjoy it.

[metalhed007]

I didn't like the movie the movie that much, mainly because it was to true to the comic and didn't take into account those people who don't read comics. This is a good film for "fan boys," but not for the person who has never read a comic book and will never read a comic book.

[55batmanandjoker]

rorschach vs batman would be awesome the way they see true justice is so similar only difference is rorschach kills batman dont so that would be the perfect reason why they fight eachother.Also batman vs thecomedian would be sooo great.

What happened to the parents after the movie ended

[neonspec]

I agree with your point at the start about the movie answering questions for us. In the movie,

(SPOILERS!!!!)

Dan ends up beating the crap out of veidt and veidt is instantly condemmed for his actions. The book left it up to the reader to decide who was in the right (Rorschach or Ozymandias).

[reversemaster]

why what parent would thak small child to that. they probibly didn't get it

[prestonrey4life]
