    5.0 out of 5 stars Extremely Faithful to the Source Material - Extraordinary!
    Reviewed in Canada on April 28, 2015
    Verified Purchase
    After the Comedian has been murdered, lone remaining vigilante Rorschach begins an investigation into his old acquaintance’s death. Since most superheroes were banned from existing after some legislation several years before, he looks up old allies and even old enemies in his quest for the truth. Slowly, he begins to unravel a plot that could bring about a disaster unlike anything the world has ever seen before.

    Based on what some would argue is the greatest graphic novel and superhero story of all time, Watchmen written by Alan More and Dave Gibbons, this movie adaptation was years in the making. Not this specific rendition, but from what I know, the book was optioned way back when it came out in the ’80s but never got off the ground. One of the reasons was very few filmmakers had the guts to touch it because Watchmen is such a revered work amongst comic fans and even in some literary and academic circles.

    Enter director Zack Snyder (Dawn of the Dead (2004), Man of Steel, 300 and more), whose eye for detail and a knack for visual storytelling takes on the gargantuan project and does his best to faithfully adapt Watchmen to the big screen. Him and his creative team nail it, in my opinion, and adapt the book the only way something like Watchmen could be adapted: panel-by-panel. It was the safest route but also the smartest. Some changes were made—like the ending—but for the most part, the book is translated completely as is to the big screen. Even the director’s cut includes additional scenes and animated clips from Tales of the Black Freighter interspersed throughout just like the graphic novel has bits of the pirate comic peppered throughout the main narrative.

    Watchmen asks the question: what would superheroes be like if they existed in the real world? Whether they are of the superpowerless variety or something more Superman-like ala Dr. Manhattan, you get an honest portrayal of superheroes in real life, all centered around the mystery of the murder of one of their friends.

    This story is about as down-to-earth as you get regarding superheroes in real life, and depending on the angle you’re coming from, can be equal to or more so than Kick-Ass in that regard.

    Each character in the flick matched their character in the book, all the way from the crazy-yet-cynical Comedian (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), to black-and-white-justice-seeking Rorschach (Jackie Earle Haley), to idealistic-yet-obsessed Nite Owl (Patrick Wilson), to insecure-but-strong Silk Spectre II (Malin Akerman), to misguided-but-you-can-see-how-he’s-right Ozymandias (Matthew Goode), and a supporting cast that makes every moment believable.

    The Watchmen story is so dense that the fact they were able to take the twelve-part series and showcase nearly all of it in around three and a half hours—I’m talking about the ultimate cut of the movie, which includes Tales of the Black Freighter and a bunch of additional footage not seen in the theatrical release—is pretty impressive. What’s amazing about the Watchmen narrative and thus the movie is the incredible amount of history for the characters that needed to be shown without bogging down the main story, which was the Comedian’s murder. You get to know these characters intimately, their pasts, their present and in some cases, their future.

    Zack Snyder’s knack for visuals gave this flick its own flavor and tone thanks to the color filters on the film. The score is fantastic. The action scenes were well done and quickly-paced, using brutal fighting techniques and the right amount of blood.

    Watchmen is certainly not your traditional superhero flick. It’s a superhero drama and is meant for an audience who likes to have some thinking along with their superhero slugfests. As a comic book fan, I appreciated the movie’s faithfulness to the graphic novel, the overall story of Watchmen, and how each person involved really seemed to take this movie seriously. Nothing was tongue-in-cheek.

    Watchmen ranks right up there as one of the greatest superhero movies of all time. If you consider yourself a superhero fan, then you should check it out. It’s a serious look at the genre through the lens of a clever story with amazing characters, all of which you feel like you’ve known for ages instead of just for a few hours on the screen.

    Highly recommended. Not for kids.

    Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2009

    I have already written a review on the original release of `Watchmen' on DVD. However, for you first time readers I have posted the original review of the movie along with my review of the Ultimate collection.

    The comic book has now officially become the mainstream in the world of film. The major companies try to get their hands on every franchise they possibly can. The real question is once there is a movie in play how will translate to the big screen and who is the fan base? Well, we all have seen what `The Dark Knight' and `Spider-Man' have done. Still, what about the no so main stream novels such as `300'? There are directors out there that don't want to make a movie in their own vision, but yet they wish to bring the book to the screen word for word, page for page. That is the film 'Watchmen'.

    'Watchmen' may be the biggest cult fan based comic book of all time. Written in an alternate reality in the 1980s, the Cold War is very much alive and all of Earth is extremely concerned about nuclear war. The heroes in this world are not ones special abilities or powers, and they are not liked by the people. Though, the costumed crusaders prevail to keep the people in line and keep order in the world. Suddenly one of them is brutally murdered and they are now the ones who fear extinction.

    I made it my business to make sure I read the graphic novel before I went to see this film and it was a wise choice. This movie no doubt tried to remain as faithful to the comic as possible. The dialogue was melancholy, they characters were well cast and while there were not as many effects as a major comic book blockbuster it was still put together in a very artsy package. Though, this movie is truly not for the mainstream movie goers. Watchmen was definitely created with the true comic book fan in mind. The director Zack Snyder like on his previous work with `300' wanted to make a movie that was just as authentic as the pages it was first concocted upon. Those who read this story would definitely enjoy it even though it is a very slow movie dragged out story. There are a few major things that are changed for cinematic purposes, but after reading this story I believe that the changes made really made the story more believable and less confusing. The changing of the costumes was a positive thing because some of those characters really looked like pimped out hood ornaments in print. The actors chosen were not well known which a great thing is always. They each filled their roles perfectly and it really made me feel like the comic book was actually coming to life before my eyes. I believe that if you read the book definitely pick the movie up. If you are an innovative person who wants to see something different then you might enjoy it as well. But, I think if you are looking for the typical action super-hero flick let this one pass you by, you might not understand it. Alan Moore may have officially removed himself from any film that his work was to become, but I believe he needs to see this one, because it really has done him justice. Watchmen came out at the right time because Zack Snyder got it right.

    Apparently I was not on target when I originally wrote my review, because now we have a 5 DVD Watchmen extravaganza. I have to say for one movie on its' own I have never seen such a package. This edition has everything that was made in honor of this film even dating before the movie itself was officially released in theaters! Before the movie came out where two animated films made for DVD release. The animated creation of `Tales of The Black Freighter', which is an essential piece to the Watchmen story. The special feature on that DVD included `Tales From Under the Hood'. In the graphic novel itself you see excerpts of that book and for DVD it is reinvented to be a television documentary complete with effects that make it look aged and its own advertisements. The other DVD release was `Watchmen: The Complete Motion Comic'. This was the graphic novel page for page narrated like a book on tape making the original comic book art look as if it was jumping right off the page. Thanks to this new Ultimate collectors edition these two projects are woven in to the film to make it more true to the novel and really give this film the honor and respect it deserves. Other features include the official video journals and incredible documentaries and commentary not to mention a digital copy of the original theatrical release. How can you possibly pass up purchasing this amazing DVD package? This package has it all...I am serious there is nothing missing from this film now! If you loved this movie you are going to love it even more when you officially have the complete story.

    This is a review for the ULTIMATE CUT of Watchmen. THE COMPLETE STORY if you will. As it says on the box. Unfortunately we here in the UK dont seem special enough to get this release here properly so if we want it we gotta import it. And then you better have a region free DVD player or it aint gonna play.

    Having said all that, this really is the ONE! I loved the Watchmen movie as released but I longed for a full unadulterated version. Well, as full and as unadulterated as we could possibly have, integrating the Tales of the Black Freighter sections from the graphic novel back into the movie proper. I actually bought The Tales of the Black Freighter DVD but held back on buying Watchmen as I felt sure we would eventually get our own ULTIMATE CUT released here. That, as yet, has still to happen. So here I am. The proud owner of my first region 1 DVD.

    Im not gonna review the movie as most of us who know....know....

    ......but oh what a package this is! And still not very expensive. The full 3 and a half hour cut of Watchmen with all the Black Freighter scenes seamlessly integrated into the movie. 2 commentaries, one with Zack Snyder and one with the legend that is Dave Gibbons, the original co creator and artist of the graphic novel. A disc chock full of featurettes and background on the Watchmen phenomenon and another 2 discs with the complete motion comic on.

    All in all, the most comprehensive package of the Watchmen movie Im able to own at the moment and boy am I glad I got it.

    Magnificent.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Truly A Wonderful Cinematic Experience
    Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2010
    Verified Purchase
    As a graphic novel "Watchmen" is often cited as possibly/definitively the greatest graphic novel ever produced. A book with so mighty a reputation would require nothing short of a miracle to be translated successfully into a feature film.

    While I do not believe in miracles I do believe that something very similar happened: director Zack Snyder helmed just such a project, the end result being a film that is as true to the source material as one could realistically hope for. I consider this true to the point of committing what some might see as sacrilege by never again reading the graphic novel in favor of this cinematic experience.

    Snyder's stylistic approach serves the story splendidly, often perfectly reproducing scenes from the acclaimed graphic novel not because the fans would demand it but because he obviously loves the book.

    The cast--the entire cast, no exceptions--delivers performances true to their characters' graphic novel counterparts. Jackie Earle Haley is especially impressive in his role as Rorschach.

    The film's atmosphere is established beautifully through scenery, an amazing score and an interesting song selection for the soundtrack--the final touch on what is without a doubt a solid and exciting film.

    For the Ultimate Cut edition, a handful of sequences--often pieces of scenes already in the movie--and the previously left-out Tales of the Black Freighter are added to the already amazing theatrical cut. The extra scenes and bits further the fullness of the adaptation. The Black Freighter scenes can be jarring at first due to these sequences being animated, but this soon makes sense according to the following logic: The Black Freighter exists within the world of Watchmen as a comic book that is being read by a New York youth; while live-action would have been nice, animation makes sense a comic book can be thought of as a frame-by-frame cartoon wherein the reader fills in the between-the-panels action with his or her imagination, and thus animation resembles what most people see in their heads when reading comics. The dark and brooding nature of the Freighter sequences is well-rendered, with excellent voice work from Gerard Butler. The only problem here is the importance of the Freighter story might not be as evident without having read the graphic novel beforehand, as the graphic novel makes that importance more obvious.

    Nevertheless, the Ultimate Cut completes Zack Snyder's vision of bringing the Watchmen in its entirety to film and is worth buying for that alone. However, this box set also includes a second disc of intriguing bonus features (some of which are set within the fictional world of the film and enhance the experience), a third disc containing a digital copy of the theatrical cut (which I find useless; I will likely replace this disc with the theatrical release dvd) and the 2-disc Complete Motion Comic, all within a nifty box.

    It's a release more than worth its price tag. If I could give it six stars, as opposed to five, I would.

    Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2012

    I ordered this film a bit ago, and I must say that it was definitely worth it! Here's some categories for what the actual case consists of:

    CASE- The bloody smiley button with a Jolly Roger on it in place of the smiley face for the front cover (the Jolly Roger is for Tales of the Black Freighter, which is seen in Watchmen: The Ultimate Cut) and a picture of the case completely opened on the back cover with all the features neatly listed. On the inside of the case, three discs and two flaps open up to reveal the main part of the case, and a second case can be pulled out to reveal Watchmen: The Complete Motion Comics.

    DISC ONE- Watchmen: The Ultimate Cut version of the original film (Director's Cut scenes and Tales of the Black Freighter) and Audio Commentary with Zack Snyder (director) and Dave Gibbons (graphic novel artist) during the film.

    DISC TWO- The Phenomenon: The Comic that Changed Comics; Real Super Heroes, Real Vigilantes; Mechanics: Technologies of a Fantastic World; Watchmen: Video Journals; Music Video for "Desolation Row" by My Chemical Romance; Under The Hood; and Story Within A Story: The Books of Watchmen.

    DISC THREE- Digital copy of theatrical version of Watchmen.

    WATCHMEN: THE COMPLETE MOTION COMICS- A separate case in the larger case containing Watchmen: The Complete Motion Comics, Parts 1 and 2 (interactive reading of the graphic novel for Watchmen). Contains two discs, each with a part of the graphic novel.

    The only negative thing I can say about this product is that the Ultimate Cut version of Watchmen is EXTREMELY LONG!!! In fact, the only two movies I've ever seen that even come close to it in length are King Kong (2005) at just over 3 hours and Avatar: Extended Collector's Edition at about 2 hours and 45 minutes! Even though this is an absolutely fantastic film, it's probably not a good idea to start it at 11:00 at night unless you plan on being up until 3:00 in the morning, because this is a 3 1/2 hour-long flick.

    That and the fact that the only version of the film in the case is the Ultimate Cut, meaning you're going to have to watch all 325 minutes of the film unless you want to skip through it.

    Other than those two minor details, this is THE version of the film Watchmen to get. It's fairly cheap, has the true version of the film, lots of extras and goodies inside, and a pretty kickass case!

    So, if you want my advice, here it is: BUY IT!!!
