Sci-fi movie "Watchmen" movie review Afterthoughts Explanation Copy
He is the anti-hero in the DC universe
His name is Smiler
One day he was lying on the couch watching TV
Suddenly a masked man in black barged in
The Comedian fought with him
But the masked man in black was much more skilled than the Smiler
The smiler was no match for the masked man in black
Finally
The smiler was thrown from a high building by the masked man in black
He fell into a pool of blood
That's right.
At the beginning of the film, the famous Comedian died just like that
The story begins
This is a vigilante group
It's called the Watchmen.
They helped the United States win World War II.
Its core members include
Rorschach.
The Pharaohs
The Night Lords
Silk Spirit
The Laughing Man
and the most powerful Dr. Manhattan in the universe
This day Rorschach learned about the murder of the Smiler
So he went to the scene to investigate
He suspected that it was a murder
Watchmen members are their targets
And the Smiler was only the first.
He first approached the retired night lord
He expressed his opinion
But the Night Lord thought the Smiler had too many enemies.
His death was a simple act of revenge
And they do not have much to do with
But then the Night Lord went to the Pharaoh who had already made his identity public
Pharaoh, who had started his own business empire
The Pharaoh's view was the same as the Night King's
And did not take it seriously
Nightlord told him to be safe out of concern
He was originally a physicist
One day after work
He accidentally left his watch in the lab
So he wanted to go back and get his watch back
Unfortunately, the door of the lab was suddenly locked
An accident happened
His body was instantly annihilated by the powerful electric arc
But he didn't really die
His consciousness entered another dimension
He created a new body in reality.
He became a god who could control everything.
The U.S. government called him Dr. Manhattan.
Rorschach approached Dr. Manhattan about the death of the Comedian
Dr. Manhattan has the ability to see the future.
But the future he saw at this time was blurred.
Because of the cold war between the U.S. and the Soviet Union at the time.
A nuclear war was about to break out.
The FTL particle flow from a nuclear weapon would disrupt space-time.
Dr. Manhattan speculated that it was likely to be disturbed by this
He didn't give Rorschach the answer he wanted.
Instead, he simply sent him away.
The funeral of the Smiler was held on that day as scheduled.
In addition to the Watchmen who came to pay their respects
There was also a figure that entered Rorschach's eyes
Afterwards, Rorschach found the old man
But the attitude was not friendly
It turned out that this man's name was "Death"
Back then, he was a real villain
It is also the Watcher decades of old enemy
Rorschach believes that he killed the smiler
But at this time, the Grim Reaper has long since retired
Old age
He went to the funeral just to pay his respects to the Smiler.
He said that the other day, a drunken Smiler had approached him out of the blue.
He took off his mask
And cried with sadness
Rorschach spared the Grim Reaper
But did not give up on the cause of the Smiler's death
Silk Soul and Dr. Manhattan, the couple was making out
At that moment, Silk Spirit opened his eyes slightly in a daze
Found two doctors around him
Silk Spirit was furious.
She didn't like the way it was done.
Clothes on the bed
Turned her head to see
The real body of the Doctor was still working on the side
Angry, Silk Spirit chose to run away from home
She went to the night lord
And the doctor, the exposure maniac also put on a suit
He was going to attend a press conference
Faced with many sensitive topics
And the ridiculous accusations that people around him were suffering from cancer.
Dr. Manhattan's emotions were suddenly overwhelmed
He instantly emptied the room of everyone
He knew he was no longer human.
He was tired of the human race killing each other.
So he left Earth and went to Mars.
Dr. Manhattan disappeared.
The United States was left without its strongest card.
Tensions between the U.S. and the Soviet Union were rising.
Nuclear war is about to break out.
The U.S. defense congressman has found Silk Soul.
Hoping to get a valuable lead.
The congressman's disparaging remarks
He was taught a lesson by Silk Spirit
That's when someone came in and found the Doctor.
He's on Mars.
The President of the United States was conducting a classified meeting.
They were trying to figure out how to minimize the damage.
How to withstand a Soviet nuclear weapon.
And no matter what they did.
The casualties would be extremely high.
Their hopes still rested in the hands of Dr. Manhattan.
Pharaoh plans his own business empire.
He was the smartest mortal in the world.
That's when the elevator opens.
The assassin appears.
After killing several people in a row
Pharaoh subdued him with one move
But he didn't have time to ask any questions.
The killer committed suicide by taking poison
Silk Soul and Night Lord learned about this
Realizing that Rorschach was right
They were no longer safe.
Or hide.
Or take the initiative
Rorschach still believes that this matter is related to the Grim Reaper
So he found the Grim Reaper again
Wanted to confront him face to face
But he didn't know it was a conspiracy
Reaper was killed.
And he was identified as the murderer
As the saying goes, a good tiger can't stop a pack of wolves
Facing numerous police officers swarming around him
After a struggle
Rorschach was finally locked up
The camera shifts
Silk Spirit and Nightlord discuss their return to the world
The Nightlord puts on the battle suit he hasn't moved in years
After rescuing a group of people trapped by fire
The two of them made out on the airship
And accidentally pressed the fire switch of the airship
The night sky suddenly appeared clouds of fire
The crowd was confused
Afterwards they began the second step of the plan
They wanted to rescue Rorschach
That day, there was a riot in the prison.
Some people took the opportunity to seek revenge on Rorschach
Because they were all arrested by Rorschach and imprisoned here
But they were all out of their league.
They were no match for Rorschach
Silk Soul and Night Lord also came over at this time
After beating up the criminals
The three of them successfully left
Back to the secret base of the Night Lord
Dr. Manhattan was already waiting here.
He wanted to talk to Silk Spirit.
Convincing him to save the world
Then the Doctor took Silk Spirit to Mars.
Silk Soul saw what the Doctor had done on Mars in the past two days.
He had created a palatial spaceship.
Silk Soul admitted that she was sleeping with the Night Lord.
The Doctor was a little sad
He said you are my only connection to Earth
If you are no longer there
Then the Earth will have nothing to do with me
In the end, Silk Spirit tried to awaken the Doctor's innermost humanity
The Doctor decided to save the Earth from this nuclear war crisis
On the other hand
Rorschach and the Night Lord also found out who was behind it
It turns out that the mastermind behind it is the Pharaoh
He built a secret base in Antarctica
He wants to end the war in his own way
And the price he paid was everyone in the world's top metropolises
The Smiler knew of his plan
But didn't agree with him
So he killed the Smiler.
To conceal himself.
He called an assassin to kill himself
And killed every researcher who knew about it.
He spent $20 billion on research into FTL particle flow
So that he could disrupt the Doctor's ability to see the future.
And used his research to mimic the Doctor's attack on the city.
They were too late.
The attack had already begun.
Countless people were wiped out in the explosion.
When Dr. Manhattan and Silk Spirit arrived.
All they saw was the huge crater left by the explosion of the city.
The Doctor realized
The Pharaoh was trying to blame himself for the disaster.
He arrived at the Pharaoh's lair.
But the Pharaoh had already set up a trap here.
Dr. Manhattan's body was instantly destroyed.
The Pharaoh thought he had achieved his goal.
He was very arrogant.
But then the doctor appeared again
Tell Pharaoh
I have walked on the surface of the sun
You are just a mortal man
You are the most sublime man in the world
But to me
Like the smartest ant
No threat.
At this moment, the Pharaoh took out an object
It was a remote control
Behind him, the big screen lit up.
It was a real-time broadcast of the major news
Because of the explosion that had just occurred.
The U.S. government has regarded Dr. Manhattan as a threat.
The U.S. and Soviet Union have reconciled
They are determined to join forces against their common enemy, Dr. Manhattan.
This is the ultimate goal of the Pharaoh.
In his hands, the world was saved with minimal losses
In exchange for long-term peace.
But it was based on a lie.
It's come to this.
The Doctor and the Night Lord and the Silk Soul all acquiesced to this.
But Rorschach thinks it's ridiculous.
He was going to expose this horrible conspiracy.
Dr. Manhattan went to persuade
After all, nothing in this universe could really hurt him.
What's the point of taking the blame?
But Rorschach was determined.
Dr. Manhattan finally obliterated him.
After saying goodbye to everyone, he left Earth
This is the end of the movie
Unlike other superhero movies
The Pharaoh only sees the result and does not use any means
Dr. Manhattan has great power but no emotion
Rorschach is righteous but dead.
Who is right and who is wrong in everything
is no longer important
(End)
