I have seen the trailer... read the book... not sure I want to see the movie. I thought the book was interesting, but no masterpiece as it is purported to be.
I do think your review/reaction is not that different than what is intended. The heroes are all deeply flawed... sadists... and their time is passed. Their powers are (generally) all in the realm of what is possible (well not Dr Manhattan, but perhaps the point there is, if there is a God, maybe he is not that interested in us either). The only character I did like was Rorschach, "evil" as he was, and I think I would like to see Jackie Earle Hailey play him (but am probably better off watching Breaking Away for the 100th time :-).
