Hollywood Reporter is not being so kind. I don't think critics ever "get" genre films, though, so I take these with a grain of salt:

RE: Early Review of Watchmen

This 2009 American superhero film was released in both conventional and IMAX theaters on March 6, 2009, A YEAR AGO THIS WEEKEND. It grossed $55 million on the opening weekend, and grossed over $185 million at the worldwide box office. It divided film critics; some gave it overwhelmingly positive reviews for the dark and unique take on the superhero genre, while others derided it for the same reason, as well as the R-rating, the running time, and the much-publicized accuracy to the graphic novel. A DVD based on elements of the Watchmen universe was released, including an animated adaptation of the comic Tales of the Black Freighter within the story, starring Gerard Butler, and the documentary Under the Hood, detailing the older generation of superheroes from the film's back-story. A director's cut with 24 minutes of additional footage was released in July, 2009; the "Ultimate Cut", incorporating the Tales of the Black Freighter content into the narrative as it was in the original graphic novel, was released on November 3, 2009. I will be waiting to watch this movie on TV as i do all films since I am a pensioner and can ill-afford an expensiive movie--whatever the movie. But I look forward to this one and thank those here at this site for raising my awareness....Ron in Tasmania

AVATAR
The film Avatar has finally been released this month after being in development since 1994. I have not seen it yet, but I have read about it and discussed it with several people who have. This prose-poem tries to encapsulate some of my initial thoughts on this blockbuster, its initial reception and some of its meaning.
James Cameron, who wrote, produced and directed the film, stated in an interview that an avatar is: “an incarnation of one of the Hindu gods taking a flesh form." In this film, though, avatar has more to do with human technology in the future being capable of injecting a human's intelligence into a remotely located body, a biological body. "It's not an avatar in the sense of just existing as ones and zeroes in cyberspace,” said Cameron; “it's actually a physical body." The great student of myth, Joseph Campbell(1), should have been at the premier in London on 10 December 2009. I wonder what he would have said.
Composer James Horner scored the film, his third collaboration with Cameron after Aliens and Titanic. A field guide of 224 pages for the film's fictional setting of the planet of Pandora was released by Harper Entertainment just five weeks ago. The guide was entitled Avatar: A Confidential Report on the Biological and Social History of Pandora. With an estimated $310 million to produce and $150 million for marketing, the film has already generated positive reviews from film critics. Roger Ebert, one of the more prestigious of film critics, wrote: “An extraordinary film: Avatar is not simply sensational entertainment, although it is that. It's a technical breakthrough."-Ron Price with thanks to Wikipedia, 30 December 2009.
(1)Google Joseph Campbell for some contemporary insights into the individualized myth we all have to work out in our postmodern world.

I have only just learned in the last five minutes that Alan Oswald Moore (born 18 November 1953)[5] is an English writer known for work in comics, including the acclaimed comic book series Watchmen, V for Vendetta and From Hell.[6] He wrote the novel Voice of the Fire, and performs "workings" (one-off performance art/spoken word pieces) with The Moon and Serpent Grand Egyptian Theatre of Marvels, some released on CD.
As a comics writer, Moore applied literary and formalist sensibilities to the mainstream of the medium as well as including challenging subject matter and adult themes. He brings a wide range of influences to his work, such as William S. Burroughs,[1] Thomas Pynchon, Robert Anton Wilson and Iain Sinclair,[7] New Wave science fiction writers like Michael Moorcock and horror writers like Clive Barker.[8] Influences within comics include Will Eisner, Harvey Kurtzman,[9] Jack Kirby[3] and Bryan Talbot.

It was the movie kids been waited to see and Disney's A Christmas Carol (2009) becomes more adventure and animation for all. The movie hugs by so many download movies fans and it was really a good thing for movie makers to rethink about making adoptions to kids. Robert Zemeckis was the director of the movie and seems he was more on offense of it.

In the movie Astro Boy (2009) Freddie Highmore, Nicolas Cage, Charlize Theron, Donald Sutherland, Kristen Bell cast and voice cast is more attractive in the movie. This movie was directed by David Bowers and he been so cleaver with the use of adventure and animation there for the movie seems to have lot of attraction among the movie fans all ready and it will be released on October 23rd, 2009 and I wish to see it saw the trailer on download movies and it was wonderful
