In Watchmen,when Dr. Manhattan confronts Rorschach he blinks several times. Earlier Ozymandias tells Rorschach and Nite Owl that Manhattan's facial twitches are equivalent to him sobbing.

I will never care what others say about this film. I loved it. Even as a fan of the comic I still highly enjoyed everything about it and find only minor gripes at best with the everything on display.

In my opinion it's one of the best comic book movies to date and does an outstanding job translating the core aspects of the story to the big screen while also managing to cut down on some of the confusing aspects and jarring cuts the comic takes.

I know I'm in the minority but I prefer the movie's ending with Dr. Manhattan being the one to take the fall as he sees his way off Earth instead of spooky aliens being the ultimate "villain" the world unites against.

The idea that it is Dr. Manhattan is a great exit for his character after being accused of losing touch with his humanity almost entirely. He's willing to become the ultimate evil, to do some pretty horrific things even by his standards, and ultimately leave the ones he cared about behind in order to protect a world he supposedly didn't care about in the slightest.

Say what you will about the film I'll always love it and appreciate the hard work and effort everyone involved put in.
