awesome awesome movie!!

If you read the graphic novel you'll appreciate the movie even more. the character choices and set design was amazing.

he movie it self was 2 hours and 50 minutes of non stop amazing.

GO SEE IT! (go buy the comic to and read it! you'll be glad you did)

I've been biting my nails for this movie since before the Black Knight hit theaters!!!

I'm desperately trying to fit it into my schedule for tonight, but either way I'm seeing it soon.

TinyGiant · 03-06-2009, 08:37 PM

i was utterly amazed at how true to the novel the movie was , the characters were like they were off the pages.. perfect matches. the ending was a little different than the novel .. but good none the less

jinxor · 03-06-2009, 09:20 PM

I saw the movie last night....
havent read the novel... but the movie appeared slow...
Nonetheless, the story was nice....

Phaeton · 03-07-2009, 01:05 PM

I'm going to watch it tonight. I'm a huge fan of the comic, I just hope they do Dr. Manhatten justice.

cali yaris · 03-07-2009, 01:06 PM

today or tomorrow afternoon show -- too many people around for the night shows, I don't like to wait in line a long time.

eTiMaGo · 03-07-2009, 01:48 PM

I plan to watch the movie first (though I'm not sure when it's coming out here), then read the graphic novel

And full frontal nudity. Definitely one for leaving the the kids at home.

Two words, Blue Wang. A lot of people in my theater where kinda childish and giggled every time they showed it.

cali yaris · 03-08-2009, 04:45 PM

sorry, but I didn't like this movie at all. Did not hold up to V for Vendetta (same writer).

I can see how it would be cool for those who know the story or have read the book, but I walked out going "what just happened?"

jinxor · 03-08-2009, 10:36 PM

Out of all the Millers Novel turned movie, I am a big fan of 300... epic movie

like any book to film .. you lose alot of background that you would kinda need to understand the movie fully

ka0sx · 03-09-2009, 03:44 AM

god fucking damn the movie was great

That does not stop stupid parents from bringing their kids cause all they heard was comic book movie. Seen it happen many times.

For me the movie was a little too long. I just don't like a bunch of story telling. I understand why and that it was needed in the movie and the ending was a closure to 2+ hours of narratives but it lacked the excitment, dark night and the spiderman series gives us. It was like the novel was being read to me instead of experiencing it. On a side note the visuals were nicely done. I saw it on Sunday afternoon, there were 10 other people in the theater. When the movie was over only 7 were remaining.
