Watchmen: Chapter II

I've already forgotten what happened in the first chapter so it would have been nice to include callbacks. The live-action version seems even better now that I've seen 2 of these. I expected this to be worthwhile as it requires a mature audience. Unfortunately, it lacks in animation and storytelling more than the first. Most of the runtime is slow and pointless character-building with about 10 minutes worth of obliviously flat plot points. I got tired of hearing the same overcomplicated, monotone dialogue with underwhelming results. The clearly unappreciated score needed to be used more. Is that it?

Same review as my last one, everything's the same just tried to not offend anyone anymore, the minor change in ending didn't make much sense this time since it was only New York, and overall I wouldn't say it was an improvement, still okay, but the original will always be better

not a huge fan of this animation style but still an enjoyable adaptation of the story, from memory i liked this part more that chapter 1 but tbh it’s been a while, i also think the story was told better than the 2009 movie
