Overrated

Rating: 6/10 (20 September 2006)

Before watching V for Vendetta, I had great hopes for this movie. All my friends, that had watched the movie before me, said that it was spectacular. Besides I saw the average grade for the movie in IMDb. moreover, I have not read the comic, but i heard about the very interesting scenario.
When I finished watching the film, I felt unsatisfied.
Personally, I didn't like the Matrix trilogy, because of the directing style, which exists in V for Vendetta too (due to the Wackofsky brothers, I suppose. I believe there are far superior movies of similar genre that have better fighting scenes and camera shots, like Spiderman 2 or Hero, or sometimes, even Danny the Dog. The same goes about the "adrenaline" scenes, or the close camera shots on faces.
I personally believe that V for Vendetta fails to really give to the viewers the high expected feel of emotion or of idealism, though the motive of the rebel story. Moreover, it has a feel of really speeding the story sometimes.
However, V for Vendetta is a really pleasant action film to watch, with good dialogues that make the watcher to think, serving a great scenario about people, governments and rebel in a futuristic aspect.
As for synopsis, V for Vendetta is a good film, but it could have been much better.
