Okay... how best to put this.
If you liked the comic for what it is, a message about the morals and methodology of humanity, then you'll probably like this. IF on the other hand you're looking forward to watching it thinking it'll be interesting and a visual buffet, erm...... Okay, a few things. Rorschach probably has the best moments in the movie, but they are spread out. For all thats good, please pay attention to the R rating on the movie. Sex, gore, and a giant blue wang are in the movie. Seriously, i regret going to Imax having to see that in Hi-Def. Aside from when he's in a suit, all but one or two moments does he support an "undergarment" and then he likes to face the camera dead on OFTEN. Luckily we were spared having to see Night Owl's. And you got to realize, aside from some facial details, Dr. M is completely CG, and that means some poor artists had to model, texture and light the blue wang in every scene he was in, and that the director purposely had him exposed and positioned straight on in all those scenes and purposely decided not to cover it for the audience.

Heh, I thought that was kind of odd myself. It's like, in a lot of scenes there are strategic cuts and camera placements to hide it, yet in other it's there in all its freakish blue glory. Was it like that in the comic?

OP
in the whole comic series, only a dozen panels have it shown, a few of which are adjacent panels and one is when he comes back into existence. otherwise he has his back exposed most of the time, which could be taken more symbolically for turning his back to the world really.
