Watchmen : 2.5/5

I am not sure what to make of this movie.  I think it was way too long - lots of setup and things that don't quite make sense (all probably explained in the comic series source).  I have not read the comic, so maybe it would have been a better movie for those who already know what's going on.  It was also too grisly and gruesome for me.  But at least it made me interested enough to want to read the comic series at some point.

Read the comic -- much better and it shows how much the film makers had to leave out just to film it. It really is a hard story to film, but I guess they did the best with what they had.
