(Don't) Watchmen

I normally see it as a good idea to avoid all previews and write-ups of a movie, if I know I'm going to see it in the theater. That means I haven't already seen all the good or funny parts, and I get my money's worth.

This was not even close to true with the movie, Watchmen. I thought it was going to be similar to X-men... boy was I wrong! Matt didn't even care for the movie. You go to a movie to see the special effects, but watching a bullet blow through a leg in slow-motion is not the added detail I want to see. The storyline of the movie didn't help matters, nor did the unlikelable characters. Apparently this was a comic book movie, not a superhero movie.
