Review of Watchmen (2009) by Johann M — 12 May 2018
Based on Alan Moore's superhero comic book of the same name, it is a visually striking movie, in which in 1985 where former superheroes exist, the murder of one of them, The Comedian, causes masked vigilante Rorschach to uncover a plot to kill and discredit all past and present superheroes, a far-reaching conspiracy involving their shared past and catastrophic consequences for the world's future.
Dr. Manhattan is also a cool character, but is the only one with actual superpowers, which is kind of disappointing. A bit difficult to follow, and perhaps a second watch is due. An unconventional story that exceeds expectations!!
