An R-rated movie this outing is makes a pretty good watch by my standards. I admit I am a comics buff. The story is set in 1985 in the alternate reality where costumed superheroes exists and Nixon is the President of the United States. The story revolves around a group of superheroes, 6 actually, some whom are retired after an act of law is passed banning costumed vigilantes. The active ones remaining are Dr Manhattan (the only one who has any real superpowers), The Comedian, and Rorshach.
Director Zach Snyder in making the movie saved around $40million dollars by casting actors who were not typical A-list stars. He however has been pressured to make the film shorter and more audience friendly, something that he reluctantly agreed to.
The film stars Jeffery Dean Morgan, Billy Crudup, Patrick Wilson, Matthew Goode, Jackie Earle Haley, Stephen McHattie, Carla Gugino, and Malin Akerman. It will be released in 5 month's time (around March 2009).

My eyes are my history. They contain the archives of all my memories. Eyes
wide open or shut tight, I can still see them, the faces and places I have
loved...
