After about two decades in development hell, a film adaptation of the acclaimed graphic novel Watchmen finally comes out.
I found the movie to have a bit of a slow start, with the bulk of the first half dealing with the character’s back stories. However, once the action picked up in the second half, I found myself having a good time.
The film is definitely more darker and violent that most comic book movies and it is definitely not family entertainment, but I would have to say I recommend it.
