Similar to 1984

Rating: 9/10 (20 March 2006)

With a setting similar to Orwell's 1984, isn't it ironic that John Hurt plays opposite roles in 1984 as Winston and as "Big Brother"/Chancellor in V for Vendetta?
I really enjoyed this movie.
My only disappointment was in V coming by his powers from a mysterious experiment gone wrong and for some reason mutating with agility, dexterity, and fighting powers all of a sudden. I suppose this comes from the comic book background where super powers coming from this kind of a source are common.
I would like to see if someone can post a quote with all the "V words" that V quotes to Evey in the alley when they first meet.
