Be not afraid, the lord is with thee.

Rating: 10/10 (18 March 2006)

This isn't just a movie. It's a call to action. We all know the fascists are in power right here, and V is a symbol; an idea that cannot die or be silenced, whether in Guantanamo or on Fox News. IT IS TIME ...to make our government fear We, The People ...to end the oppression of ECHELON and illegal wiretaps carried out against political dissidents ...to reclaim those unalienable rights with which we are endowed by our Creator.
If you can imagine the declaration of independence being read aloud to a backdrop of the nightly news for the past 5 years, with a British accent, you know what this movie is about. In the movie, just like in our original revolution, the good guys win. It is 1984 set to Tchaikovsky and V is a superhero for our time...not with powers that we do not have, but with exactly the same strengths and weaknesses that we all have. The difference, we are shown, is nothing more than a lack of fear.
