Finally watched Watchmen last night. Aside from a little pacing problem, I liked it. Based on the word of mouth (fanboy backlash against average viewers etc.) I was expecting a mess that didn't make much sense. I expected to think it was way too long, but the pacing problem seems to me it needed more time in the slower parts for reflection which is contrary to the laws of action movies, but not contrary to how a person processes when they read. A tough adaptation for sure.
