gemfyreQuote of the year... so far. :)
2 days ago I had no interest in this Watchmen film that I'd heard some talk of. I figured it was another movie based on a TV series that everybody but me watches. But then Matt mentioned the three magic words "Comic book movie" and I was in.
That was a pretty brutal and unforgiving movie. Liberal use of the F-word, plenty of blood and violence, a couple of sex scenes, full frontal (CGI) male nudity.
I would have been happy if the movie ended at All Along The Watchtower. The rest seemed a little gratuitous and laboured. I'm intrigued by this Rorshach character.
And am I the only one who reckons the guy who played The Comedian looked like Robert Downey Jr?
