Correction : Watchmen : the Guardians.

Watchmen : the Guardians.


Watchmen's director is Zack snyder, the American director of 300. It was released in American theatres on March 6. Watchmen is inspired by a comic book :" Watchmen" invented by Alan Moore in 1986. This movie mixes action, drama and S-F and stars"Jackie Earle Harley, Patrick Wilson..." who are not very famous because Zack Snyder did not want a " Big star" in his movie. Watchmen is a very long movie, it lasts 241 minutes, because the comic book is long too ( 408 pages). In the USA, Watchmen was prohibited for under 17 years old whereas in France it was allowed for 12 years old and more!

Review :

_The Comedian has been murdered and his friends want revenge which is the main plot of this movie, but the audience discovers many other things... As a result, Watchmen is a difficult and amazing movie . It mixes complot, Cold war atmosphere, manipulation as well as History and fiction...

Good points:

_ The film is long but the spectators are not bored. There are lots of action, humour, but sorrow and love too.
_ It is not a simple movie of Superheroes, only one Watchman has great powers and this movie is not for children.
_ The graphic style is engrossing because Watchmen has been adapted from a comic book.

Weak points :


_ Many people do not like superheroes' movie.


I recommend this film because it's engrossing, attractive and it changes from the idea of "the good superhero ".
