Summary of V for Vendetta

Rating: 9/10 (21 March 2006)

What a fantastic film, beginning with a very brief history of, Guy Fawkes in 1605 trying to blow up the house of parliament, getting caught and then being hung. From the very beginning, the viewer can see the Nazi regime being forced upon the people of England with a curfew in place and undercover police walking the streets inputting the fear into people. This film has great action throughout with brilliant witty comment from V (Hugo Weaving). From the fight scenes to the explosion scenes this film is seat clinchingly fast paced, and deserves a title as one of the best blockbusters of the 21st century, breaking the mold by having both the hero and the villains dying. A must see for any true film fan.
