186 min. director's cut. Perhaps the most ambitious attempt to use the essentially silly trope of superheroes in order to pursue a range of complex themes in the guise of a kind of noir epic. Though not in a position to know, I doubt that all the virtues stem from Moore and all the flaws from Snyder: some of the stilted, kitschy and overblown elements seem quite comicbooky. The risk of fidelity is not just of failing to adjust to a new medium, but of exposing unobvious weakness in the original.

This is a hard one to grade. It's a slavishly faithful, panel-by-panel adaptation of the comic and the comic is brilliant so it would be hard for it to be bad. The tone is weirdly off though and whenever it diverges from the source material it shits the bed. I enjoyed watching it but everything good about it can be attributed to Moore and Gibbons and none to Snyder so I'm not sure I'd call it a good adaptation.

I was floored by the fantastic opening montage to Bob Dylan’s “The Times They Are A-Changin,” but then I kept holding my breath, waiting for them to play his “Tangled Up in Blue” (wink wink).

Top badass moment? This is an awesome film but consider this. A guy who can manipulate matter at the sub-atomic level but can’t even dress himself properly, except in a fashion faux-pas of galactic proportions that looks like an oversized pair of girl's panties, and that’s when he can even be bothered to wear anything. It's worse than Borat's mankini. Sorry but someone has to say it, the guy's a pervert who probably spends his weekends LARPing as a Bolian. No cats, chainsaws or decapitations

Just don't let Zak Snyder near a script, and he will deliver a gorgeous looking cinematic experience without his trademark shit dialogue. Still, the scenes that wander into cheese-territory are fucking CHEESY (that sex scene). I love this movie nonetheless.

A halfway interesting first half hour gives way to ever-increasing levels of inanity, leading to an eye-rolling finale. The film presents a paper-thin debate between utilitarianism and moral philosophy whose impact fails so profoundly it's a bit embarassing. There is clearly potential here, but it's all ruined by the nonsensical twists and the awkward execution. It all feels like some backwoods middle road between self-mockery and a kind of orgiastic revelling in cliches.
