    The Best Comic Has The Best Movie

     
     
    If only every Comic Book Movie was done by  Zach Snyder. Just like the comic, the movie is a masterpeice. But being awesome is not the only thing the movie has in common with the Comic. They made it MORE true to the comic than the comic itself. 
     
    I mean, look at what they Did; they hired the actors who could act like they parts instead of the most popular actors, more than 80% of the lines were lines from the Comics, The music (done by Tyler Bates) fitted in prefectly with what was happening at the time and the less than Three changes were changes that didn't matter or enhanced the story. 
      
     

     
     
     
     
    Jeffery Dean Morgon (Comedian) and jackie Earle Haley (Rorschach)  are two of the greatest comic book movie actors in history. I loved who they chosed to play every character but no one more prefect than Hayley and Morgon. 
     
    If you expect every comic book movie to be this close to the comics, then you will be finding yourself very disappionted in the future. The only bad thing about the movie is same bad thing in the Comics, they won't be a sequel(and they killied Rorshach).

The movie begins in the best way possible, The Comedian and the Mask killer fight to the death, and boy is it a kick ass fight. It's easily one of my favorite fights of a comic book movie yet. Then we are treated to a ....decent...opening credits. After the credits we get a movie that is pretty much exactly like the graphic novel. I give props to Zack ...

      One of the greatest movies of all time! 0

      When I first watched this film, I didn't think it was going to be enjoyable, I hadn't read the graphic novel at the time and it looked like a very complicated storyline...well when people say don't judge a book by it's cover, you best believe them because this my friends is absolutely fantastic. I can't do this film justice with the amount of praise I'm gonna give it, it's amazing. The film has the perfect beginning, with the fight between the Comedian and the Mask Killer (a.k.a Ozymandias). You...
