A brutal slaying of one superhero leads all superheroes to question their imminent future. In this Lawrence Gordon and Lloyd Levin Production, if superheroes can't save themselves how can they protect humanity?

Jam packed with action, computer-generated explosions and lots of sexuality, Watchmen is the 21st century adult comic collector's fantasy dream.

It's a modern DC Comic movie straight out of the '80s. Starring newcomers Malin Akerman and Carla Gugino, Rated R, I give this movie 3 stars.

It has an interesting plot, but you have to really pay attention. The movie flips timelines and settings quite a bit.
