What Are the Critics Saying About Watchmen?

Watchmen has an official critics rating of 96% and an average audience score of 56% on Rotten Tomatoes.

The Daily Beast’s Nick Schager writes, “Watchmen paints a chilling portrait of politically and racially divided 21st-century life, and those on both sides of the aisle will find much to like and loathe…moreover, it’s overflowing with phenomenal performances.”

James Poniewozik from The New York Times says, “I’m still not sure Lindelof is wholly in control of the subject. But he earns the chance to show that he has a thought-through long game, that he’s working with something more than magic dust and good intentions.”
