I did-- heres what I thought:
- A lot of the acting and writing, especially dialog was
awful- It looked good visually, even though it was a cgi-fest
- Rorshach was pretty good-- he looked right with and without the mask.
- The ending was changed, yes. It sucks, but it still has the same ramifications (sort of) so it doesn't really !@#$% up the movie.
- In fact, the movie is phenomenally faithful to the book. they switch up the order of LOTS of scenes, take out my favorite characters (newspaper stand guy D:), but they still contain the whole plot relatively intact. There is almost no character development though, and some of the editing isn't so great.
- The music? there are some great parts when they play music of the era, which are perfect, but the score of the movie was really dissapointing overall. From the first few trailers, I was expecting really stylized music that would sync really well with the film-- there was very little of that. The part with the koyaanisqatsi music (Phillip glass), was *so* dissapointing, because in the middle of one song, they basically just cut out and changed to the other, right in the middle, and it sounded AWFUL. HORRIBLE music transition.
- One of my favorite scenes, the one where the comedian is pacing and crying and spilling his guts in moloch's room under the flashing red and blue lights, is done SO badly in the movie. Ugh.
- Fight scenes. Lots of them. With lots of slow-motion. WHAT THE !@#$% IS THIS !@#$%.
Now, even though I have an endless list of criticisms for the movie, I still enjoyed it, and I'm glad I saw it.
of course it isn't as good as the book. There's no comparison. But through the bad acting (espcially the chick who plays jupiter/juspezyck), It still captured the STORY of the comic kind of well, and it was fun to watch. But really, the atmosphere and character development was just not there. That sucked. lol
