Directed by Zach Snyder ('300', 'Dawn Of The Dead' 2004)) and adapted from Alan Moore's comic book novel, 'Watchmen' is an ambitious 160 minute action hero movie for an adult audience.Set in alternate 1985 New York, Nixon is still President after winning the Vietnam war thanks to the help of the 'superhero' Watchmen, but the the world is under threat from Nuclear war, whilst the world is on edge someone is murdering the now 'retired' Watchmen......
This is an incredibly stylish 'superhero' film that is firmly aimed at mature audiences, very much like the equally impressive 'Sin City', 'Watchmen' is a dark movie with sinister characters and dangerous streets.....this is not the American dream but the American nightmare.
