V for Wonderful !!!

Rating: 10/10 (18 March 2006)

As good as it gets. The movie was refreshing, the ideas were liberating, the entertainment value... priceless.
Definitely see it... for the directing, the acting, the special effects and certainly the story.
Its a movies about Vendetta... revenge, vengeance. I hope that no one goes in expecting a story about Gandhi. Its about V, a freedom fighter, who fights the oppression of a dictator-like chancellor by terrorizing him and his politicians. He meets EV along the way who unwillingly becomes a major part of his crusade.
The story certainly bears some similarities with reality. As they say in the film 'an artist uses lies to tell the truth'. So also do the artists who are responsible for this masterpiece of fiction. Its hard to ignore the the resemblance it bears to the way of the world today and how we are trading in our freedom for the promise of safety and security.
But politics aside, I highly recommend this film just purely for the fresh and entertaining film that it is.
