watching the detectives-- er, watchmen
Mar. 9th, 2009 08:54 amWatchmen: a damn fine piece of entertainment. I have never gone fanboy over the graphic novel, so it was never likely that I would be offended by the filmmakers' failure to capture the ineffable whatever -- on its own terms it was just pretty cool.
Whenever someone tells you that something, especially a comic book, is supposedly "unfilmable"? Yeah, me too.
( Specifically... )
Anyway, I had buckets of fun but I wasn't taking the movie too seriously to begin with, and recommend that you don't either. It's a great ride.
