v. good movie

Rating: 8/10 (4 April 2006)

It's been a long time since I left the cinema with a that feeling. You know, that special feeling you get after having seen a good movie. Today however I had that feeling again after seeing V for vendetta. I was hooked from the beginning till the end. THe movie has it all for me, humor-poetry-drama-mystery-great music-action and v strong acting. I just love Stephen Fry, ever since I saw Wilde he's been one of my favorite actors. HUgo Weaving as well, what a difficult part. how do you show emotions with a mask. What an amazing actor. Even the little girl did v well. The movie was v 1984 but with wit and romance (which was sometimes a bit weird and in a way not really necessary for the story). THe fight scene at the end was also a bit over the top and you can clearly see some Matrix features in it but the death scene and the scene with all the guy Fawkes'masks make you quickly forget those minor slips. the blowing up of parliament was an amazing scene. I felt my blood run cold even though I knew it would happen. I recommend this movie to everyone who likes a bit of drama action and philosophy and especially to those who want to see a bit of great acting!
