`If someone who has no familiarity with the subject at all asks you what Watchmen is about, would you tell them ``it's about one of their own betraying them and killing millions``? What would that tell your listener? What could they possibly learn from that? That is the least effective summary possible. You could say the purpose of V For Vendetta is that Creedy dies, the theme behind Saving Private Ryan is that their squad dies, the goal of Crash (2004 film) is that a white guy shot a black guy. `
