Best modern vengeance film!?

Rating: 10/10 (14 July 2006)

V for Vendetta is a modern vengeance film, based on the lilting articulations of V, the heroic resistance fighter, and set against a London repressed by the government. Natalie Portman as Evey is spectacular in perhaps her best role yet.
The film begins as Evey and V in their respective homes prepare themselves for a night out. Evey, however, is attacked by vicious government finger-men and is saved from sexual assault by V. As the film progresses Evey is gradually compelled to believe in and fight for V's cause and tenderly a relationship develops between the two of them. It is soon revealed that V's lust for freedom and vengeance is based on a horrific personal experience when several key figures in the government are murdered. Alas, the plot thickens! The intricate story continues to develop and it is not until right at the very end, you go "Ah! I get it!"
With awesome fight scenes to satisfy your action cravings and hints of romance, "V for Vendetta" is a thrilling, turbulent film and I recommend it to anyone who desires a fulfilling, well laid plot (with a GOOD resolution!). 10/10!
