While it's not really a masterpiece, [i]Watchmen[/i] is still an incredibly solid superhero flick, a faithful adaptation of an incredibly poignant story and quite simply a very good film..
Holden Pike
In many ways I don't think Snyder and company really adapted it to the medium of film as they were so busy being reverential to the imagery of the book that they didn't find enough ways to make it of the source material but also let it be its own film.

It feels like a production [U]by[/U] fans [U]for[/U] fans, and yet not so self-indulgent that it yields the book for the sake of taking over and re-imagining the whole thing..
