Simply A Masterpiece
Good concept, poorly executed.
Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
On the eve of the suppression of freedoms following 9/11 and the government spying and intrusions this was just the film we needed. Over ten years later it is still exciting and riveting. Whether seen as entertainment or a polemic against right-wingers: V is a hero.
V for Vendetta directed by James McTeigue based on the graphic novel by Alan Moore is an exciting story about a dystopian future where a fascist government has taken control of England. V is the anarchist and main character of the story who has made it his goal to topple the government and let the people rebuild. He is soon joined by a woman named Evey, together they will both work together to uproot the corruption and return power to the people. Watch this amazing movie and experience a unique story crafted to show Fascist England and V's anarchy
Portman is just about the most beautiful woman to ever be on film and it still took me 12 years to get around to giving this a chance. I'm glad I did! This has spectacular eye candy, some FX, a little action and is a frighteningly topical statement. I would have found this incredibly relevant in 2006. HA! What naïve fools we all were then. If you haven't seen this, NOW is the time. Provided we all survive the next 3 years I should be able to re-watch this for every new sociopath.
...but not a touch on the comics though, and Natalie Portman sounds South African not English. Hugo Weaving is brilliant as ever. Worth a watch but not a challenging one all together.
