A mariner survives an attack from the dreaded pirates of the Black Freighter, but his struggle to return home to warn it has a horrific cost.
When they finally turned the classic comic book series Watchmen into a movie, they had to leave a lot of stuff out. You may find that surprising if you've only seen the film, given how long, detailed and dense it was already. But as one of the most complex stories every written in comic book history, there was a lot they had to skip. Instead of simply forgetting about that stuff, they've taken most of it and turned it into two short films. They're both must-sees if you were a fan of the movie or the comic. Taken on their own merits, however, one of them is must better than the other.
Tales of the Black Freighter was a comic-within-the-comic that told the story of the sole survivor of a ship destroyed by the infamous Black Freighter and the horrible, mad lengths he goes to in order to save himself and protect his family. They've turned the comic story into roughly a half-hour long cartoon with some decent animation and good voice work by Gerard Butler as the sole survivor. In making it into a cartoon, unfortunately, the writers and directors leave out most of the powerful and creepy narration that make the original work so striking. The comic-within-the-comic was also thematically connected extensively and intimately with the main story of Watchmen and severing that union robs Tales of the Black Freighter of a lot of its purpose and force.
Under the Hood is based on text pieces that ran in the original comic concerning the autobiography of Nite Owl I, Hollis Mason (Stephen McHattie). That was the old guy talking with Dan Dreiberg at the start of the movie. He was one of the original masked adventurers of the 1940s who eventually hung up his mask and tights and wrote a book about what he did and why he did it. In the comic, excerpts from the book were used to flesh out and reinforce many of the themes Alan Moore was driving at in the series. It's been adapted for the screen as an episode of a TV news show about Hollis Mason and his book. Host Larry Culpepper (Ted Friend) talks with Mason, the former Silk Spectre, Sally Jupiter (Carla Gugino), former super-villain Moloch (Matt Frewer) and others about the book and the nature of super-heroes in the real world.
Under the Hood is much better than Tales of the Black Freighter. It deals more directly and explicitly with much of Alan Moore's deconstructive take on super-heroes and heroism in general, and is therefore hampered less by being detached from the main story. There are also some very good performances by Stephen McHattie, Carla Gugino, Matt Frewer and Rob LaBelle as Doctor Manhattan's former sidekick. They show the twin sides of the super-hero as presented in Watchmen; the human dimension concerned with celebrity and personal drive and desire, and the sociological perspective of how the existence of such entities would interact with and change the larger world.
I imagine the idea is that both these films will eventually be re-integrated into the main Watchmen movie in a special edition DVD. Hollywood loves to sell people the same thing over and over again. I'm not sure it'll be worth getting that DVD because adding this stuff into the movie would make it 4 hours long or more. These works, especially Tales of the Black Freighter, would also not fit alongside some of the changes made in adapting the comic to the screen.
If you liked Watchmen, the comic or the movie, I suggest you give this thing a rent and enjoy this stuff on its own.
Tales of the Black Freighter is set within The Watchmen universe but there are no superheroes to be found here.
With Gerard Butler as the voice talent we see a tale of a mariner who is the sole survivor of an attack on his ship by pirates and his efforts at survival and getting home to his family.
Standing at little over 20 minutes this little short actually manages to tell a story competently, but make no mistake it isn't a very nice one.
Grim, dark and harrowing this is a tale of desperation and a tale of madness and there was never going to be a happy ending here.
Depressing and hard hitting this is a watchable little piece but one that will stay with you afterwards and for all the wrong reasons.
Watch at your peril.
The Good:
Well animated
Very well written
The Bad:
Not the easiest viewing
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
This was an extra on the Watchmen (2009) dvd, I think it's better than the actual film
In the fictional world depicted in the "Watchmen" comic book, superheroes are controversial public figures and therefore not standard comic book subject matter. Instead, other stories of heroism like pirates are popular. "Tales of the Black Freighter", therefore, is a comic-within-the-comic about the titular Freighter and its pirate crew.
In the "Watchmen" movie adaptation, "Tales of the Black Freighter" was to be presented in segments using stylized animation. However the complete film's run time would have extended beyond three hours, which the studio found unacceptable. Instead, "Tales of the Black Freighter" was incorporated into the film for the "Ultimate Edition" DVD and Blu-ray release; in addition to being available separately on DVD and Blu-ray. The DVD and Blu-ray versions will contain the following main presentations:
* "Tales of the Black Freighter": A animated short-film based on the comic-within-the-comic of Watchmen, in a drawing style close to that of original graphic artist Dave Gibbons. Rated R for violent and grisly images. Running time: 26 minutes
* "Under the Hood": A mockumentary short film based on the excerpts of the same name book withing the Watchmen mythology, supposedly written by Hollis Mason, aka Nite Owl I, exposing the background of many characters as well as a brief introduction to the alternate reality everything takes place. Rated PG for mild thematic elements, brief violent and suggestive images and smoking. Running time of 38 minutes.
As a extra features, both versions will contain:
* Story Within A Story: The Books of Watchmen: A short documentary on how Watchmen defined the metafiction in comic books, as well as its innovative narrative structure.
* A First Look at "Green Lantern: First Flight," the next DC Universe Original Animated Movie.
Also, exclusively in the Blu-ray version:
* "The Two Bernies": A scene from Watchmen not seen in theaters, featuring the news vendor and the kid reading the comic book beside his namesake.
* "The Why of Watchmen: Director Zack Snyder explains the reasons Watchmen is still so relevant in fiction and in the world today. Its a cue by a company called Groove Addicts called "The Beast at Our Door". The track was supposedly going to be found on their release 'Full Tilt 3', however inquiries about the subject to the Groove Addicts website are as of yet unanswered. a5c7b9f00b
