IN MYSTERY fantasy, WATCHMEN (18), costumed superheroes are part of everyday society.

When one of his former colleagues is murdered, masked vigilante Rorschach sets out to uncover a plot to kill and discredit all superheroes.

As he teams up again with his old crime-fighting legion - now a rather ragtag group - he discovers a conspiracy with catastrophic consequences for the future.

Their mission is to watch over humanity.

Based on the award-winning graphic novel, published by DC Comics, the film is directed by Zack Snyder - who brought us 300.

Malin Akerman, Billy Crudup and Matthew Goode are among the men in costume.
