great political drama but may offend conservatives

Rating: 10/10 (18 March 2006)

Excellent movie. Very critical of religious fanaticism so if you like forcing your views on other people then you may not like it. It would be good for such people to see because they can see a possible outcome and why liberals get scared. It is basically a warning of letting our freedoms be taken away. Excellent cast of some of my favourite actors including Natalie Portman, Hugo Weaving, and John Hurt. It is very nice to see plots in movies. Lots of action intermixed with drama. Finally a movie worth the cost of seeing it in a theatre. It takes place in a Britain of the future but is relevant to any country. The actions of the chancellor reminds me of the way the US President is acting and I don't think that is a coincidence because the Wachowski Brothers don't seem to shy away from making statements (similar to Michael Moore). :-)
