Watchmen... Watch it in IMAX!

WOW!!!


 


We saw a late showing of The Watchmen in IMAX last night, and I just have to say WOW! It was one of the most beautiful movies I've ever seen. I know most people don't consider blood and violence beautiful, but it was. Cinematically, the movie was amazing to look at, and the story wasn't like any other super hero movie.


I really wish I would have read the graphic novel. The characters are all so human and believable. They have real flaws and sometimes make bad decisions. The special effects were extraordinary and the violence and fights scenes were very original.


If you haven't seen this movie yet or you're planning to see it again (like me) try to see it in IMAX. It really is quite an experience.


I loved The Dark Knight, but The Watchmen is on a whole different level. Like Michael said as we walked out of the theater, "movies like this aren't made very often."


I have only one complaint about this movie and most other movies involving crime fighting divas. I really wish they would have decided whether Spectre was going to be a crime fighter wearing practical flat boots or a sex kitten with 6 inch stilletto boots. Every crime-fighting super heroine ends up wearing different boots in her fight scenes and it really bothers me. They did it with Michelle Pfieffer as catwoman too. I wish they would have either let Spectre get it on with Night Hawk in her practical crime fighting boots, or try to kick some ass and look good at the same time in her fetish boots.


They better not do it with Super Woman. This may be the only reason that Beyonce would make a good Super Woman. I'm positive that she can do some awesome fight scenes in heels. She's such a diva, she probably sleeps in heels.
