While I can and do respect Moore's refusal to be involved in its production or accept money from it, I sometimes think he is a tad too precious about other people translating his stories to other media.
Yeah it went off topic. Sorry about that. My point was that Gok shouldn't feel that he needs to read the source material (Watchmen) to enjoy the film. Zack Snyder did a great job but in doing so he sort of changed the focal character from Rosarch to Manhattan.

In short Gok see the film. Borrow the graphic novel later.
