The only ways it could have been worse is if Uwe Bohl directed it and had Ben Afleck and Matt Daemon in it with a narrative from Fran Dressier and Obama played the role of Nixon and all the chars had 1 gigantic Brokeback Mountain love making scene. That is the ONLY way it could have been worse. The blue glow in the dark man says “I cannot just seem to quit you,†and funky monkeys the bootleg batman looking guy in the special no no place. That is it! With a small cameo of Turric somewhere in the end scene… as a fluffer.

Well, that's just great. Rags screwed the only chance I had of getting laid. I could have really used an instructional video like that.

Disclaimer: I've been a fan of the novel since I read it back in the 80's.
I thought the movie was good. It was very true to the graphic novel with many scenes shot exactly as they were drawn and much of the dialogue presented verbatim as it was written. There was no way this could have been presented with all of the detail that Moore/Gibbons created unless it was a TV mini series or a 6 hour film. What they distilled it to was a good core story with a slightly modified ending. Perhaps the ending could have been greater in scope (or at least presented in greater scope) so that it felt more like a climax.
Bottom line: I think if you enjoyed the book, you'll enjoy the movie.

When I went to see it there were many children in the theater, I thought it was rated PG-13, until the blue ding dong was on screen, then I assumed it was R and the movie theater wasn't doing their job.
I liked the plot development, and the crumbling city. It gave a lot of story in a short amount of time. Have to go in not expecting a giant action flick, just a drama with a bit of action.

-I liked it when things were simpler. Gravity wasn't known. Things just stuck to the Earth because they loved it.
