Customer Ratings & Reviews

I was not a fan of the graphic novel when I first saw this movie. I enjoyed the story and character development of the movie. This isn't your typical Marvel movie (and I do love the Marvel movies!). - it is darker and grittier. This may not be for everyone, but I really enjoyed it.

I don't know what movie some watched, but this flick is a great adaption of the novel. I'm not sure how it could honestly get closer except for the end act. But to be honest I was never sold on the original ending and how it was presented. This movie is beautifully filmed and Snyder did a good job.

This is a good movie a little different for a super heroes movie. A little macabre a little weird and a lot of detailed characters. Almost 4 hours long but holds your attention well. Sometimes hard to follow because of the depth of the characters and the complex plot. A good movie to enjoy.

albeit engaging feature. I enjoy the stark nature of this comic book movie as opposed to the traditional cookie cutter super hero flicks (which I, too, enjoy). The movie can drag a bit at times but the characters are interesting and cinematography is something to behold on a larger screen

Great adaptation of the dystonian future created by Alan Moore. Character development is so deep you can feel for the characters by the end. Fantastic story, great cinematography, wonderful experience. Incredibly dark, therefore not everyone's cup of tea, but it certainly was my favorite.

This Ultimate cut was well worth the upgrade from Blu-ray. I would have rated this 5 star but the audio was the same on the Blu-ray disc and wasn't upgrade to Dolby ATMOS.

Having viewed the theatrical cut of Watchmen, I was wanting more from the director's cut. You cerntainly get it. While the added footage add minor improvements to a good adaption to of Alan Moore's classic. You might have to watch theatrical cut again to spot new footage added to this film.

Good film and a must have for blu-ray collectors.

Looks great in HD, sounds great as well. And I definitely prefer this "ultimate cut" to all other versions, with deleted scenes and the "Curse of the Black Freighter" animated feature interspersed within the main film.

Watchmen simply put is a seminal movie and a must own. Bucking the trends of super heroism that we know in film and near faithfully recreating the magnificence of the graphic novel this is a must own movie.

I was never a fan of WATCHMEN - all style, no substance. The Ultimate Edition with the extended cut hasn't necessarily changed my mind, however I do find that I appreciate the film more now. As it always does, the HDR presentation makes the colors pop. Dr. Manhattan's blue glow is a highlight.

This is a really really good movie that fallows the comic book really close worth watch multiple times, but is a long movie so have a couple of free hours but so worth it! Definitely worth buying if you have a comic book movie collection and even if not worth to have in your blu ray/dvd collection period.

This ultimate version takes what was a pretty darn good film and even makes it better. I can't wait until the HBO series that is in the works hopefully sets the plotline back to the graphic novel version..The film still works though and looks pretty darn great on 4k

If you are a scifi or comic book fan and you haven't seen this movie, this is the version to purchase. If you have seen the movie, liked it, haven't yet picked it up on bluray; this is the disc for you. Finally, if you are looking for a movie to use in demoing your home theater, again, this is the disc for you.

Purchased this as a Christmas gift but ultimately ended up getting a more recent release. But Watchmen is one of my few favorite Zack Snyder involved films. The visuals are amazing and it's obviously based on a beloved graphic novel, so it's good.

People said it was impossible for this graphic novel to be put to screen,yet Mr.Snyder has pulled it off masterfully...including scenes directly from the comic brought to life on screen

I really enjoyed this movie. It's one of those where you are either going to like it or your not...there is very few people on the fence because there is a ton of plot set up and dialogue. If you are like me and enjoyed it I recommend finding the Steelbook copy of the directors cut of possible.

I prefer this to the book. It was dark, violent, but still retained plenty of esoteric meaning, especially considering you can't throw a rock without hitting a pointless meaningless everything and the kitchen sink garbage superhero movie these days.

Having not seen this movie in theaters I remember various fans raving about this movie before it came out. I was unfamiliar with the franchise/characters before seeing the movie. Nicely presented, I know who the characters are now. This is a different concept of super heroes.

You've likely already seen Watchmen or read the comic if you're buying this. The movie is not a master piece but the ultimate cut looks beautiful and has the bonus black freighter footage spliced in. Glad I checked best buy before ordering from Amazon
