Movie Review: Watchmen

Watchmen is sometimes great*, sometimes good**, sometimes meh***, and sometimes pretty awful****.

There. Isn't your life just that much better now?





*The opening credits sequence
**Jackie Earle Haley
***Any scene between Dan and Laurie where Malin Akerman and Patrick Wilson refuse to act
****Ozymandias, and I really have no idea where to place the blame for this

I agree with all of your points. Though what exactly didn't you like about Ozymandias?

I can't really pin-point it was about Ozymandias that bothered me. It was the way he looked, like they were going for the cheesy from the comic, but just couldn't commit, but still thought that shiny purple would look good on screen. The way he talked, which kept throwing me out of the movie. The way they made him seriously suspicious from the beginning. It was a lot of things, but a general aura of discontent.
