Watchmen

It's wednesday again :)
As everybody knows by now - it's movie night...
We decided to see Watchmen http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0409459/, no. 01 at the US and UK Box office's - so it must be good... right?
Well... WRONG! It's such a crappy movie I don't know how to comment it... It felt like Benjamin Button story all over again, this time with special effects! It's a sort of documentary about some superheroes that ar not heroes at all, or at least this is the feeling you get from watching it.
I will never understand american's affection for comics... After the first half hour we were on the brink of suicide and afterwards we were watching our watches :) every 10 minutes to see how much of the movie is left. Did I mention it lasts only 2 hours and 15 minutes?
The only interesting character was Rorschach played by Jackie Earle Haley; Billy Crudup who used to be an ok actor is just dangling his wee-wee the entire movie - maybe that's why it ended up no. 01 at the box office ;P
The special effects are interesting, the filming is quite spectacular sometimes and the music is good (actually it's great to hear german music in an american movie - Nena with her 99 Luftballons).
Apart from that, the feeling you get from watching this movie is summoned by miss Silk Stalkings or whatever her name is: "It feels like licking a battery!"
YUK! YUK! YUK!
So this movie doesn't get any thumbs up, but other fingers up! I'll let you guess which ones ;)

P.S. Let's see you comment on that Little Mountain :D

Un comentariu:

  1. :)))..my finger rises in the middle.
    DON'T PAY ANY MONEY TO SEE THIS MOVIE!!! it sucks!!!
    i liked Rorschach... the character, the acting, but not the actor's body...very inappropriate for the part. and two of his lines : "i'm not locked in here with you, you are locked in here with me..", in the jail scene and before he escapes, meeting the doctor and taking back his ink spotted face "your turn doctor, what do you see..":))).
    that's it. no vampires :(
    still waiting for "New Moon" to come up:D
