Kevin Smith Calls Watchmen 'Astounding'By Katey Rich: 2008-08-16 11:55:25
In case you needed one more reason to be jealous of Kevin Smith-- aside from that whole successful-director, palling-around-with-celebrities, cult-hero thing-- here's one more: He has seen Watchmen. He and Zack Snyder seem to be pals, and though Smith signed a non-disclosure agreement, he was allowed to give the movie's first all-out rave, seven months before it hits theaters."It's fucking astounding," Smith wrote on his MySpace blog (MySpace login required). "Snyder and Co. have pulled it off." He compares the experience to watching Sin City and being amazed at how faithful the movie was to the source material. Except, apparently, Watchmen does it even better. "Triple that, and you'll come close to watching Watchmen. Even Alan Moore might be surprised at how close the movie is to the book. March can't come soon enough. So is Kevin Smith just doing some fanboy ravings for the sake of a friend, or can we trust this early word? Since it's the only thing even resembling a review we'll have for a looong time, we don't really have a choice but to take Smith's word for it.
