Watchmen (2009)

Directed by
Zack Snyder

A dystopian fantasy adventure based on an unusually faithful adaptation of the highly regarded graphic novel by Alan Moore, directed by Zach Snyder.

It is 1985 and Richard Nixon continues his tenure in the White House, massively popular with the electorate following his crushing defeat of the Viet Cong. However, it seems that the American public have fallen out of love with their superheroes, one of whom, Dr Manhattan, was largely responsible for the winning the Vietnam War. Now, he and his fellow crime-fighters are regarded as reprehensible vigilantes and have been banned by law. But, when one of their number - the vile, ironically named Comedian - is murdered, the former heroes begin to re-emerge from the shadows to investigate. They discover a plan is afoot to destroy the world, but who is behind it...?
