Watchmen Movie Review


This review consists of my personal point of view of this movie , Watchmen . Teaser shown as advertisement in theaters almost for last eight months . And at last , yesterday this movie released in Malaysia , 05/03/09 .

Brief Watchmen Story Line :

Hard to explain , never mind i try my best . The movie starts with ONE of the Hero , Canadian killed by a mysterious man . Watchman , actually is the name of group stand for group of Heroes , and kind of Super Heroes , in 1960's . And by time past by , few heroes killed and stop be a American masked Super Heroes . Movie story occurring in 1980's , where America and Soviet Union in era of Cold War , lead to 3rd World War , treat of Nuclear War . And America win in Vietnam War , lol lol lol , with the help of this superheroes . At the end , one of the superhero , tricked all other superheroes , to save the world from nuclear war , by "sacrificing few Million peoples to save other few Billion peoples" .

My Own Point Of View of Watchmen :

Watchman , for sure movie for adults . There are two kind of Hollywood movies . First , the movie explain it self and make you enjoy the movie without need any thinking . Second , the audience need understand the movie to enjoy the movie . Watchman , is the second kind of movie , which the audience need to watch the movie carefully to enjoy the movie . Quite a long movie , 2 hours and 45 minutes , with lots of redundancy .

My personal Rank for Watchman :

if you kind of person , wants the movie talk for itself and entertains you : 5/10

if you kind of person , like to understand the movie to entertain yourself : 7/10

"...ONE of the Hero , Canadian killed by a mysterious man.."

Its the Comedian, not Canadian.

My personal rating for the movie is 4/10.

-1 for being draggy
-1 for a horrible looking spaceship
-1 for the super boring Mars scene
-1 for the totally gay character of Dr.Manhattan

-1 for censoring Dr.Manhattan's balls(showing it and the ass in da first place?)
-2 for a dumb story. Yes even people whom have a deep understanding of the movie would find no story in it, period.

But,

+1 for the cool character of Rorschach and his brilliant mask.
