Who watches the Watchmen? I do!

Watched Watchmen yesterday (pun intended). Consensus? One of the most faithful novel to movie adaptions I've seen. The characters are spot on and the visuals are simply delicious. I could eat this film up! It's great to look at and Zack Synder has done an absolutely stellar job of making every scene look like it has been lifted straight from the pages of the graphic novel. In the film-maing process, Synder hasn't lost the apocolyptic-noir feel of the source material and the result is a comic-book movie unlike any other. The main thing fans will notice is the major adjustment to at the end of the plot which, personally, I think doesn't detract from the movie and was a smart move to make Watchmen more compatible with audiences and those unfamiliar with the graphic novel. The soundtrack is taken straight from the original comic with awesome results plus the opening credits are so, so, so clever they compact the background story perfectly. Overall Watchmen is a movie experience fans of the graphic novel and adult newbies alike will enjoy.
Warning: those easily distracted may find Dr Manhattan's swinging appendage a little, erm, distracting. Above: A quick visually summary of the sleek, flawles costuming of Watchmen's lead characters.
