Fun. You definitely do not feel the length, unlike Dark Knight.
Boring and long? Too philosophical and therefore boring? As a society we've apparently lost our ability to sit still longer than 60 minutes; lost our ability to think before we're interrupted by somethin going up in flames. If you went in expecting your typical superhero movie, then this is not it. There are things that could have been better, but that is not its length and it is certainly not its philosophical side. Those Watchmen cannot do without and should not. And get over yourselves. Has no one seen a penis? Manhattan is not human and not bound by human conventions. It's not even given as much screntime as people are talking about it. We're just more used to seeing breasts.
Okay people who haven't read the comic and cannot understand the movie are going to see it and then giving it bad reviews... this is an amazing movie.. and you should read the graphic novel.. its amazing too.
I've not read the comic fully yet. But I mus say that this movie was fantastically done. There are, of course, some differences between the comic and the movie, but honestly it's to be expected. The changes aren't that dramatic either and actually make more sense for the movie. A lot of people rag on the acting, however I believe the acting was well done within the confines of the characters. As for the pacing, it was done, in my humble opinion, perfectly. Just because it's a movie based on a comic doesn't mean it's got to be exploding with action, after all, The Comic itself doesn't explode with action, it tells a dramatic story enhanced by pictures, while the movie itself tells and acts ou
This move was just average. I understood everything, but it was just way too long. And the blue wang was a bit much. Yeaaaah!! for Bob Dylan and Simon and Garfunkel in the music though.. that was the only time I felt excited. If you have nothing else to do, then this is a fine movie for you.
Ok i do not understand what a vast amount of critics are seeing in this movie, giving it 4+ stars. The acting was substandard, characters that might have been ok in a comic book did not resonate live. However understanding of how a cult following started for this comic has happened as it provided im sure a lot of lonely men some self love.
Too long, and too boring. Total waste of time and money. Rent it if your curious, but otherwise, it's a pass.
EXPECTED MORE ACTION,BORING
It was so good, and the nudity and violence was tastefully done. I am going to watch it agian. I am a big fan of Alan Moore. Best PERSON ever.
If you like looking at blue wang for 3 hours, this is the movie for u. Absolutely horrible.
