...real movie, vigorously visualized from Gibbons' template, and screenwriters David Hayter and Alex Tse have brought coherence to a plot that often lurches into flashbacks within flashbacks. The section showing the mutation of mild-mannered scientist Jon Osterman (Billy Crudup) into Dr. Manhattan is a gem of lucid storytelling. Shuffling the sequence of tenses, the film shows Jon as a young man in love, a fellow scarred by a nuclear accident, a boy watching his watchmaker dad, a superhero who can change size and location at will, a middle-aged stud letting his old love slip away as he finds...

That said, they fail to replicate the magic of their most popular single, “Take Me Out.” The album goes wrong when they depart almost completely from their template, evident in “Lucid Dreams.” The song clocks in at nearly 8 minutes and much of that is a dub odyssey with a lazy, reggae-influenced beat.
