I just watched it as well and was extremely disappointed. I liked Snyder’s “300”, and I realize now that’s probably because Frank Miller wrote it. I knew this wasn’t Miller, but if I had known it was Alan Moore I wouldn’t have watched it. I thought V for Vendetta was bad, but this was worse. The ONLY character worth a damn in this movie dies at the end for wanting to do the right thing.
I’m already encountering people telling me that I didn’t “get” it. I got it just fine - it was a nearly-three-hour drag that didn’t really go anywhere.
