an amazing film from the British

Rating: 10/10 (23 March 2007)

McTeigue's comic book like tale of a freedom fighter known as "V" who is fighting against his society's totalitarian rule is both visually brilliant very thought provoking. I liked how McTeigue went about directing this and the screenplay from the Matrix's Wachowski brothers was first-rate. This film is visually similar to the likes of Sin City or Lucky Number Slevin, but i thought this was better than both of those films (both of those are favorites of mine, but V For Vendetta surpasses them on my list)... I thought the acting was very good, Weaving was great as V behind the mask and Natalie Portman and Stephen Rea were both pretty good as well. I liked this film a lot, its very entertaining, has some very good political and social references that apply to a lot of our societies and governments of today, though it concentrates on a made-up futuristic government, its really symbolic. An instant favorite of mine.---IMDb Rating: 8.3, my rating: 10/10
