V For Vendetta is the story of a man who rebels against a dictatorship government in the future. The movie has close ties to reality, and provides a very strong message. All I can say about this movie is WOW! Now I went into the theater expecting a good movie but I was expecting something this good. Hugo Weaving (V) really comes across as a bad-ass rebel in this movie. Natalie Portman (Evey) is great once again, this time portraying an innocent, scared girl who eventually comes face to face with her fears. John Hurt (Sutler) really makes you believe that he actually is a dictator in real life, he is that good. The acting overall in V4V is sensational.
The acting isn't the only good thing in this movie, the action is phenomenal. It will keep your interest for the entire 133 minute duration of the film.
The story is excellent. It is hard to come across one as good as V4V nowadays. About a very dark, grim look into the future where government rules absolutely everything and everyone is at its mercy. But there is one who fights, our beloved V. Thus creating the ever, enticing story.
So, all in all, I STRONGLY recommend you see V For Vendetta. It is the best movie I've seen in a long while, and the best movie I've seen so far in 2006.
