Definite Comparisons with Bush/Cheney

Rating: 9/10 (16 March 2006)

The most clear giveaway of those comparisons was the room with the Swastika in the middle of the words, "The coalition of the willing ... for power".
The idea of the movie was the America's war on terror has caused so much fear in the public and as a result has made their leaders very powerful...powerful enough to the point where it has become a George Orwell 1984 like society. America has descended into civil war and Britain is under complete control of ultra conservatives who have banned homosexuality, the Koran, and anything else they see a threat to Bush/Cheney ideology. These governments who are part of this war on terror-namely the U.S. and the U.K. through Iraq's invasion-are resorting to Nazi-like cruelty where part of the population is deliberately killed and shortly afterwords a new vaccine developed for the purpose of reelection and profit; a direct tie between the Bush/Cheney hunger for oil and desire to scare the public with terror warnings and public support resorting to the government for safety. V was undertaking a violent revolution because, I suppose, he felt there was no other way to topple the government and restore power to the people.
There was of course more to the movie, but those are initial thoughts after just walking out of the theater....
