Watchmen: 9/10
I was expecting a super dark film like the two newer Batman movies. It had a lot of dark humor which helped pace the 2.5 hours well. My favorite character was Nite Owl. He was good in costume and out of it. I thought Silk Spectre II did well but was a touch weak compared to Jeffery Dean Morgan. I have liked Jeffery Dean Morgan from Grey's Anatomy so at the beginning it was hard to watch him be such a completely vile character but it totally fit in the film.
The cinematography was excellent. It captured a lot of the feel of the graphic novel. I am interested to see what the director had to cut for time. It has been said there will be a 3.5 hour version. I want to see that one!
