the watchmen-and then all that was left was rorschach

i found this movie a tad tedious at times but one character stood out:rorschach.
jackie earle haleys portrayal of the morally rigid sociopath vigilante rorschach was so brilliant it carried an otherwise tepid movie.

"none of you seem to understand.i'm not locked in here with you.you are locked in here with ME"

instant classic.

FUCK ME I WANT TO DESTROY SOMETHING !! ! !

Those scenes always gripped my theatrical emotions. I mean honestly the first time I watched this movie my fistes where clenched and I wanted to beat the shit out of a wooden dummy or splinter wood with my knuckles.

I too found this movie mediocre, which was a shame, but he was amazing. He's even better in Little Children.


What do you have against giant blue cock!



Really, the only part I liked was the ending, and not the "heros", but rorschach's. Everyone else was content with murdering a city "for the greater good", rorschach was like, "fuck that noise, that makes you murderers". They be like "No G, we are STOPPING murdering dog", then Rorschach's little diary gets out and all the killing was for nothing...secrets out. Might as well be a story of wikileaks...except Rorschach's a crazy mother fucker. At least, that is how my brain remembers it, I might have added my own context.

I really just didn't get the point of making that movie. I fail to see what it added to an artwork that was perfectly fine in its original medium.

A truly visionary director, the likes of Terry Gilliam or Stanley Kubrick, might have revealed some new insight. Snyder just translated the pages onto screen and in a predictable manner at that, and the whole "graphic novel on screen" was already done by Rodriguez, so it wasn't even that technically impressive. The one part of the movie that worked was the title sequence
