"Watchmen" (****)
I saw "Watchmen" and I think it is perhaps the best superhero movie ever made, or it at least ties with "The Dark Knight" for that and for my favorite movie now. I do appreciate that both of these films have accomplished proving that superhero films should not be synonymous with children and young teenagers. I'm a fan of the graphic novel, and I feel that the film did it a great deal of good. Sure it left out some stuff that was in the book, but you either don't really notice it, or you shouldn't really be bothered by it. I would have had no other director than Zack Snyder do this film, as well as the actors he cast for all the characters. This is without a doubt one of the best adaptations ever captured on film. I'll be looking forward to the directors cut DVD with +30 minutes of footage. Shame it'll be the last DC Comics movie for a while, most likely until "Green Lantern" in December of 2010.
