Review of Watchmen

Watchmen (2019)
6/10
Nowhere near a 10 or a 1

Warning: Spoilers
I have no issue with the underlying story and using white supremacists as the villains. What is problematic is taking the Watchman characters and just changing them to your whims to create a story. So Jon who had shed his humanity just does a complete 180 and comes back to Earth to pick up a random girl in a bar. Said girl then decides to start a relationship with this robotic individual with no personality. Ozymandias comes off as goofy comic relief just because it was needed in the story, not because it was his established character. And we really are to believe some cleaning women was able to determine that Ozy had sperm hidden in his office, find out his password, impregnate herself, and escape Karnak, which just happens to be in Antarctica? Potential was there to be better.
