Awesome film... BUT

Rating: 8/10 (24 March 2006)

Before I say anything about the film I want to make it clear that I thoroughly enjoyed this film.
It wasn't some mindless action film as few people I know feared. instead it is an emotional and thought provoking film that raised interesting politic topics. however I was rather disheartened in which the way the original graphic novel was "adapted" for the big screen... wasn't so much adapted as almost re-written in places! some important parts were changed drastically and even omitted in some cases! but I can understand this as certain aspects of the film that had been different from the comic (drug use and prostitution) are very risky to be shown to the mass public.
But all in all this will become a cult classic and comes highly recommended from me! comic adaptations are the way forward, step aside X-Four and Fantastic Men (on purpose that! :P )... make room for Dwight and V!
Oh before I forget V's fight sequence at the end?... sublime!!!
