Movie Review: Watchmen

[evadne_noel]

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 don't think I've ever heard him sing. What would you recommend?

A long winded answer...

Well, he was in the revival of Oklahoma for a while. He was also in Lucky In The Rain, The Full Monty, and then he's on the recent Allegro Complete Recording. He was also Raoul in POTO (movie). But the song in which he stole my heart was Artificial Flowers from the 2000 revival of Tenderloin. (Which is not R&H, but that style of music seems to suit him best.)

Wait, he was Raoul? Wow, then I have seen him. Well, he certainly has range, even if he couldn't muster any chemistry with Malin Akerman.
