An Exceptional Movie, overlooked somehow

Rating: 10/10 (14 October 2006)

I've got to admit that the preview for V for Vendetta was underwhelming. I barely remember hearing about the movie, much less any details about the trailer.
So it was just a wild, fairly random guess when the DVD found its way into my hands at the store. I popped it into the computer and played it while on the plane and...wow. This is one heck of a movie! It covers contemporary topics and issues in such a compelling manner that I can't really comment on any details or it's possible to spoil the plot. In addition to being an awesome special effects, costuming, and cinematic feast, the plot is...again, can't really write this out.
Go watch it. You will be pleased.
