...four couples who go to Eden, a luxury tropical resort that features couples counseling along with its crystalline waters and multiple hot tubs. Vaughn plays the leader of the glum-married pack, Dave, a producer of video games (including Guitar Hero) who lives with his chirpy wife Ronnie (Malin Akerman) and kids in a snowy suburb. Favreau is Joey, a former high school-football star who got cheerleader Lucy (Kristin Davis) pregnant on prom night, did the "right" thing and has been growing toxically bitter ever since...
...novel’s fanbase. The slightly effeminate Goode is not the obvious choice to play the square-jawed super-athlete of the novel, but he delivers a solid interpretation of the character. The cast’s real weak link is its passive female romantic lead, Malin Akerman. Though the Swede’s delivery is mostly flawless, she at times seems bored or perhaps confused with her role as Laurie Jupiter, also known as Silk Spectre II. In her scenes of budding romance with Wilson’s Nite Owl, Silk Spectre II would benefit from an actress...
...questing spirit. Dr. Manhattan (Billy Crudup) is not much help, preoccupied as he is with helping another superhero, Ozymandias (Matthew Goode), in a secret experiment that may save the world or put a big hole in it. Dr. M. has also paid scant heed to his girlfriend Laurie (Malin Akerman), a.k.a. Silk Spectre II, who's ready to fall into the arms of nerdy Dan Dreiberg (Patrick Wilson), a.k.a. Nite Owl II--some new Watchmen have moved up as older ones have retired. Meanwhile, still President Nixon (Robert Wisden) and other U.S. officials are poised to avert a nuclear strike...
...Manhattan (Billy Crudup) is not much help in the search, preoccupied as he is with helping another superhero, Ozymandias (Matthew Goode), in a secret experiment that may save the world or put a big hole in it. Dr. M. has also paid scant heed to his girlfriend Laurie (Malin Akerman), a.k.a. Silk Spectre II, who's ready to fall into the open arms of nerdy Dan Dreiberg (Patrick Wilson), a.k.a. Nite Owl II - some new Watchmen have moved up when older ones retired. Meanwhile, still-President Nixon (Robert Wisden) and other top U.S. officials are poised to avert a nuclear...
...alternate 1980s world where Richard Nixon is still President, cold war tensions run high and superheroes are being murdered. Snyder's teaser showed arresting visuals of the giant blue Dr. Manhattan (Billy Crudup) atomizing some Viet Cong, fellow crusaders Nite Owl II (Patrick Wilson) and Silk Spectre II (Malin Akerman) kissing in front of a mushroom cloud and the coarse Comedian (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) plunging to his death from a window, with a blood-spattered smiley face--the book's trademark--tumbling after him. With its dense story line, Watchmen asks a lot of its audience, and Snyder is wrestling...
