En 1985, en una historia mundial alternativa, el asesinato de The Comedian, un héroe convertido en agente del gobierno, llama la atención de Rorschach, el último de los vigilantes proscritos. La investigación de Rorschach enreda a sus colegas retirados, Nite Owl, Silk Spectre, Dr. Manhattan y Ozymandias, en conflicto con sus pasados, entre sí y en un misterio que amenaza sus vidas y un mundo al borde de la guerra.
R
(Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian 21 or older. The parent/guardian is required to stay with the child under 17 through the entire movie, even if the parent gives the child/teenager permission to see the film alone. These films may contain strong profanity, graphic sexuality, nudity, strong violence, horror, gore, and strong drug use. A movie rated R for profanity often has more severe or frequent language than the PG-13 rating would permit. An R-rated movie may have more blood, gore, drug use, nudity, or graphic sexuality than a PG-13 movie would admit.)
