WATCHMAN (2009)
SYNOPSIS
A complex, multi-layered mystery adventure,
Watchmen is set in an alternate 1985 America in which
costumed superheroes are part of the fabric of
everyday society, and the Doomsday Clock -- which
charts the USA's tension with the Soviet Union --
moves closer to midnight.
When one of his former colleagues is murdered, the
outlawed but no less determined masked vigilante
Rorschach sets out to uncover a plot to kill and
discredit all past and present superheroes. As he
reconnects with his former crime-fighting legion -- a
disbanded group of retired superheroes, only one of
whom has true powers -- Rorschach glimpses a
wide-ranging and disturbing conspiracy with links to
their shared past and catastrophic consequences for
the future.
Their mission is to watch over humanity...but who is
watching the Watchmen? --© Warner Bros
