The movie of our time!

Rating: 10/10 (13 July 2006)

"People should not be afraid of their government, government should be afraid of their people" This quote by V sums up the moral of this movie. Everything about this film is spot on, the story, cinematography, acting, sets, tempo, score. I have watched this film over an over looking for flaws and can find none. Its an action adventure, thriller, who done it, love story, comedy, swashbuckling, wrapped up neatly into one film. It has twists and turns, edge of your seat excitement, from start to finish. Hugo Weaving's performance as V is compelling to say the least. Although you can only see a mask, he has you seeing his expressions change, anger, sadness, happiness etc. I almost wonder if there were many masks used for different scenes conveying his feelings in a particular scene.
