Half liked it, half hated it.

Rating: 6/10 (26 March 2006)

This movie left me undecided on whether or not I liked it when I left the theater. I enjoyed the action of the movie, particularly the fight scene. But the thing that really bothered me about this movie was the ideology of V. This movie promotes terrorism. Or perhaps 'terrorism' is in the eye of the beholder? I just don't agree with the idea that 'blowing up a building can change the world'. I don't think blowing things up is a very good way of telling your government you want things changed. Also, the political statement made in the movie about current affairs just sidetracks the plot and did nothing but make me sigh and lose respect for the movie, when I was already undecided on how I felt about it due to weak plot and unrealistic dialogue. Also, Natalie Portman is hot, but not with a shaved head...
