CHASING LITTLE CHILDREN
Firstly, I haven't read the graphic comic book. Secondly, I'm not even familiar with the characters. Lastly, I just wanna find out if Watchmen is more gratifying than Jack Snyder's 300. The denouement is quiet integrated. I was bored but I enjoyed it and I was aroused most of the time . I have never expected that a CGI character is quiet erogenous even if he has a bluish and flaccid wienerwurst. If 300 shows aphrodisiac abs abs abs from start to end, hmmm... expect a crowing cock in Watchmen like you've never seen before. I think this bluish and glowing au naturel doctor is much scorching than those 300 Spartans.
Set in an alternate 1985 America ,as Richard Nixon begins his fifth term where tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union are high and the "Doomsday Clock" is set at five minutes to midnight, former superhero turned vigilante Rorschach discovers that one of his former colleagues has been murdered. As he investigates the murder he uncovers a plot that is intent on killing and discrediting all past and present superheros. As he reconnects with members of his former crime-fighting legion, including Nite Owl II, Silk Spectre II and Dr. Manhattan, they uncover a wide-ranging and disturbing conspiracy that not only links to their shared past but has catastrophic consequences for the future.
Here's the thing. Two adjectives about Watchmen: Sexy and Violent. When the film starts to become loquacious you may catch 40 winks instantly but Jack Snyder has a vision for us to fight that soporific state inside the cinema because he is a genius when it comes to stimulating our erogenous sense. Yeah, some scenes are really boring but most of the visuals are stunning. It's thawing to see some stylized action scenes once again. I feel like dying watching the grandeur of their visual effects. It's really sluggish but those convulsive scenes with Rorschach is unexpected. Hold on to your seats when blood starts to burst in the movie or you may cover your mouth. The sex scenes are just ravishing. Hmmm... MTRCB cut some seconds of it but it's still hunky-dory.
Are you still wondering why my title is “Chasing Little Children”? Well, the movie is not about pedophilia but it stars three interesting actors who are notable in the movie. First is Matthew Goode who plays Adrian Veidt / Ozymandias. He was introduced in “Chasing Liberty” together with Mandy Moore and I became an instant admirer because he is really handsome. I just don't get his make up here. He looks gay and old. Then there's Jackie Earl Haley who makes for a supremely effective, unforgiving Rorschach and Patrick Wilson as the Nite Owl II who is always flaunting his butt for the nth time every time he has a movie. Guess what?? Both actors are from the award winning film “Little Children”. So that's it. The only hot chick is Malin Akerman as Laurie Juspeczyk / Silk Spectre II. She is just an eye candy for pornographic details. See her acting in “The Heartbreak Kid” and I bet you'll be shocked to see her moan like a wolf. The patient from Grey's Anatomy is here playing as The comedian. Jeffrey Dean Morgan is a fine actor who looks like Robert Downey Jr. Surprisingly, the character that I love the most is Dr. Jon Osterman / Doctor Manhattan being portrayed and voiced by Billy Crudup. I don't need to elaborate why I love him. That bluish thingamajig of him is enough for me to giggle like a teenage-boy. Ha ha ha!!!
The movie is R-13 and I guess teenagers with identity crisis should watch this. Just kidding. Well, just don't take this film seriously like it is vying for the Academy Awards. This is a delicious popcorn fun. Just enjoy the graphics, violence, sex and “The Sound of Silence”. Most of all, try to appreciate the bluish illusion.
