While my full review of Watchmen is up here, it seems to me there is an underlying truth to it. But expressing it might be a spoiler, so I’m letting you know up front. Somehow, this aspect of the film wasn’t particularly surprising to me, it was more of a “sigh”-and-a-“it figures”. But others may have been, so here’s your warning.
I’m not going to reveal any action that occurs, but if you think backwards from what I’m saying, you’ll probably be able to figure out where the movie is going.
Enough warning?
Last chance!
OK, the underlying truth to Watchmen is this:
If you give a leftist super-powers, he’ll act like a super-villain and still consider himself a hero.
Think about it, won’t you?
