A beautiful story, well executed on film

Rating: 9/10 (30 May 2006)

I admit that i am glad I watched this movie. I went 2 weeks ago with my girlfriend, who hates action films and we were astonished by the sheer quality of this film in all aspects. The film is very well directed, especially the action scenes are spectacular. And also the figure of V is something alien but at the same time very friendly and "close". As the film is progressing towards the end we all feel that we have a friend, V, who will protect us against the evils of any totalitarian lunatic running our world. The political point of the film is obvious and it represents the opinion of the majority of people in modern societies who want to speak but actually can't. Oppressive dogmas and governments covered with the veil of "democracy" and "freedom" have taken our free will to decide what to do with our lives. Only greed and evil prevail in modern societies of the so called "civilised western world". V is their menace.
The film is more a political opinion than an action movie and I am very honored to have watched it. The plot, the cast and the script are Marcellus. I am looking forward to the release of the DVD because it will be a jem in my collection.
