Review: The Watchmen

Here it is the movie we've been waiting for all winter, The Watchmen. This movie is probably one of the most faithful screen adaptations of any graphic novel ever written. If you like the graphic novel, you will most definitely like this movie.

The plot is to much to discuss in length. The main plot follows a group of disbanded superheroes known as the Watchmen. Most of the members have gone into peaceful retirement, until one of them is brutally murdered. The story then follows the remaining members as they are methodically placed in situations which make it hard for them to help anyone. Through the course of the movie, a more sinister plot is uncovered.

The movie delivers on what it promises. Reading the graphic novel prior to the movie greatly enhances the experience. Even though it's March, this should be the official film to kick of the summer movie season. Bottom line....

The Watchmen - Go Now !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Review: Push

PUSH, the title sounds interesting. The trailer makes it look interesting. The movie ....
Well lets start of by saying first of all I did have high expectations for this movie, maybe a little to high.

While Push starts off promising lots and lots of action, it seems to lack in delivery of said action. There was no bad acting in my opinion, but the story seemed to be drawn out 20 minutes longer than it should have been. Although being directed by the man who directed one of my favorite movies, Lucky Number Slevin, this movie left me wanting more.

It wasn't a bad movie but it left a lot of questions unanswered as if they were almost certain they were going to make a sequel. I'm not sure what to rate this movie, given our new ratings system. I am torn between giving it a Go Now or a Rent It. To save our loyal fans from going out and seeing a movie they may potentially not like, I'll err on the side of caution and say that....

Push - Rent It......
