I'm really not a fan of Zack Snyder's works. I feel often enough they're a bit too over directed. I'm out off by such heavy exaggeration that makes films look more like a video game than a film. I don't think I have seen a lot of films directed by him due to this. And, to be honest, I didn't even know Watchmen was something he directed until I had already started watching through the film and got curious, only to lo…More

filmaffinity.com SYNOPSIS The world fears the masked now, the police are no longer on their side, they begin to age and their beliefs about being heroes cease to exist, only a being with powers like those of a God is treated as a hero, the rest, only deranged who want attention. SINOPSIS El mundo le teme a los enmascarados ahora, la policía ya no esta de su lado, empiezan a envejecer y sus creencias sobre ser héroes…More
When I first watched the movie "The Watchmen," I had to see it a few times to really appreciate the story. I believe the same is true for DC's Black Label series Rorschach. Even though I picked up Chapter Eleven, it appears that this story has been dragged out over the previous ten issues. A tortured detective is seen speaking with deceased characters helping him piece together events leading up to present day. He c…More
When I first checked out the 2009 film "Watchmen" many years ago, I didn't think very much of the movie. After all, I never read the limited DC Comics series by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons. I felt lost in the action of the film. Researching films dealing with the DC Universe, Zack Snyder's name came up and I noticed that he had directed "Watchmen." My past experience also kept me from watching the recent television…More
The movie "Watchmen" was released in the United States in March 2009. This is not the first "anti-hero" film, because the original comic "Watchmen" was not as good as Marvel (Avengers) and DC (Superman, Batman). ) Has a large readership, and the film has never been introduced in asia. Even though the subtitles were introduced at the time, the 162 minutes duration and the plot were a lit…More
Visually appealing with a biting storyline and gripping plots and twists seem to describe this movie the best. .gif) The glue to the movie seems to be Silk Spectre a.k.a. Laurie Jupiter (played by Malin Akerman). You don't realize that she seems to be the focal point of the movie as it switches between her, Rorschach (Jackie Earle Haley) and the Night Owl (Patrick Wilson); however, the movie is heavily narrated by R…More
Graphic Novel to movie. Not all graphic novels that are brought across to the big screen are done well. Thankfully this was done well, very well, and it didn't have a mega budget. The movie still manages to deliver a thought provoking film of about 2.5 hours, yet it doesn't feel like a movie of that length. For those that haven't seen the film or read the novel it is set a time when "super heroes/vigilantes" are no…More
Let me tell you something. Zack Snyder is the greatest superhero movie director ever!!! Some may disagree. Some of the reasons will be valid. Everyone has a style. They prefer some stuff over the other. That's cool. I have a MASSIVE crush on Cyberpunk and Science Fiction settings. I'm no fan of Romance movies. I can't digest the stuff about real people with real lives kind of stories. I don't watch movies to see pse…More
