I went to go watch the Watchmen in the theaters this past weekend and I'd just like to make a comment on the movie. It didn't completely enamor me like 300 did (the same guy directed it) and I could definitely see elements from his style but it was surprisingly good.
I didn't expect much from it since Watchmen has a slow paced not very action packed story (that doesn't make it bad by all means, it's perfect the way it is) which usually doesn't transfer well to the big screen but Zack Snyder (the director) did a good job straddling the fence. He definitely kept it faithful enough to the graphic novel that fans could enjoy it but added enough action so that it would still be entertaining, even for those who haven't read it. I do recommend reading the graphic novel before you go see it.
Oh, and don't take the young ones because there is a full sex scene and a lot of Dr. Manhattan's blue penis and Miss Jupiter's boobies...
