Watching the Watchmen
I pretty much considered this blog dead, but I just have to write about Watchmen.
I'm not going to compare it to the comic; any such comparison would be pretty redundant since the two mediums are completely different. But the movie did have a lot of scenes with so much impact that I doubt I will forget the feelings they ewoked in me for a long time. I can't even talk about my favourite scenes, since they were so crucial to the story that I'd totally spoil the movie if I talked about them.
I'm glad I read the comic first (almost 10 years ago by now...), but I liked how the movie was able to make me feel so much for these characters, all over again. Especially Rorschach... The fighting scenes were great as well. Quick and dirty.
As for the actors, the guy playing Rorschach nailed his character completely. When I rewatch this movie it'll be to be able to see his performance again. It was totally electric! The voice, the way he held his body, his dirty fighting.... Wow!
I really recommend all of you to go watch this movie! And read the comic of course! I'm going to buy it and reread it as fast as I can.
