Film Review: Watchmen...."There's a big naked, blue, glowing, radioactive guy who has the power to save or destroy the world (and yes, you get to see his blue, glowing, radioactive penis)."

Moore may well have a point. He has said of the Watchmen movie, and I quote: ``I'm never going to watch this f****** thing.''

Enjoy a few drinks while you watch the Watchmen....including (gasp) "The Full Frontal Manhattan"...

Those who have already seen the movie or read the book will want to start their boozing off with this tribute to Dr. Manhattan's... (ahem)... full-frontal blueness!

2 oz Bombay Sapphire Gin

1 oz Hiram Walker Blue Curacao

1/2 oz Luxardo Maraschino Liqueur

3 dashes Regan's Orange Bitters

if you havent read the book, dont go into this movie thinking its some simple action movie, it is far from that. watchmen is pretty deep and will have you thinking.

i meant visually not intellectually but that seems to me to be sound advice mate...i`ll read the book and reserve my decision on the movie until i see it.....
