Amazing!!!

Rating: 10/10 (24 March 2006)

This is such a powerful film! I didn't expect much out of this but went to see it because it had good reviews. The combo of Natalie Portman and Hugo Weaving is very effective as they both have such strong personalities- delicate and coarse- they balance each other out. V's strategies are very well thought out but you can understand them without too much thought involved.
The futuristic setting is also very effective. The possibility of an American civil war is quite believable and who can question the fact that this could happen?(Not likely but you never know).
*SPOILER* Personally i thought that the death of V made the film even more poignant, and the decision of Evy to blow up the houses of parliament made it more powerful. However i did find that watching them blow up was quite depressing. Overall, this film had a massive effect on me and i hope it will on you too.
