Watchmen-Directed by Zach Snyder {R} for nudity,language and violence.
Watchmen was a highly entertaining Plot thick, action filled superhero movie. But different then most superheros, by the way the handle the "bad guys". The are revenge seeking, and when they go out, they run with a purpose. The story takes place in 1985 during the cold war, where super hero's are common knowledge. A super hero named Dr.Manhattan, (Billy Cudrup) is a blue piece of matter created in a terrible physics experiment. he can teleport, create anything, change anything into any substance and spends his time trying to build energy saving ways to remove reliance on oil. Overall i was very entertained, there were some parts that were unnecessary, but highly enjoyable. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys movies with thick plots and lots of dialogue, with a clinching desire for some Gorey ass kicking.
3.5/5

Haven't seen the movie and have no intention of doing so, either, so I'll leave that to the film-fanboys (Tom/Bob/Your Dad). Instead, I'll address matters more dear to my heart: spelling, punctuation and style. My first piece of advice is to use spell-check. You don't have to be a former Spelling Bee Champ to write but you look silly when you publish elementary mistakes. If necessary, compose your stuff in another program such as Word or Notepad and then after you've re-read/re-checked it SEVERAL times, copy and paste it here. I'm not saying you can't adopt a stylistic variation from the norm but be consistent with it. (Are you deliberately not capitalizing the first letter of every sentence? Well, then do so for EVERY sentence. The same goes with "i"....) Watch out for repetitions, especially in shorter pieces. You use 'thick' several times and it gets boring; learn to use a thesaurus if you can't think of a synonym. This is a trick I had to be taught many years back. Also, are you invoking Al Gore ("Gorey") or did you mean "gory"? Spell-check will not catch misused words, just those you don't spell properly. (Right there, spell-check and I disagreed on 'mis-spell' and I can't find my dictionary so I re-phrased the sentence instead.) Preview your writing; editors used to perform this function but now you have to do it yourself. Still, despite my kvetching, a good start. Keep it up because they only way to be a writer is to write.
