Watchmen Reviews
Most of my friends know someone who knows someone, so naturally they have already seen the new Watchmen movie. Some weeks ago! From what little information I could get out of them, the Watchmen reviews all seemed very positive. I'm dying to see this movie, but I tend to wait until the initial rush. When I don't, I seem to find myself siting in the first rows, next the loudest smelliest teenager in the place. You should probably read that last sentence in a grumpy old man voice for best effect.Here is what a few other folks are saying:Owen Gleiberman of Entertainment Weekly: “Watchmen isn’t boring, but as a fragmented sci-fi doomsday noir, it remains as detached from the viewer as it is from the zeitgeist.”Christy Lemire of The Associated Press: “Yes, I’ve read Watchmen… It moved me, too. And still — or, rather, because of that — I found director Snyder’s adaptation hugely disappointing, faithful as it is to the 1986 graphic novel.”Matt Selman of Time Magazine: “Sitting in that screening room and watching the visual world of the Watchmen movie unfold was one of the most powerful experiences I’ve ever had. Not film experiences. Just EXPERIENCES.”Related Posts:
