Long film but worth it.

Rating: 8/10 (20 August 2006)

You start off by thinking, What!!!! It can seem a little slow of the marks but stick with it. It is from the makers of The Matrix but you will be disappointed if you feel it will be another Matrix. Yes there are some good fight scenes, and the performance of Stephen Rea is fantastic and at times moving.Natalie Portman once again shows herself as a fantastic actress and is well known that she shaved her hair of for the role. Hugo Weaving is great as well as Stephen Fry. It has themes of Equilibrium running through it. I did however find it hard to identify, sympathise or have any feeling to Hugo Weavings role. As you do not see any expressions from him you are left guessing what "V" is really all about. But I guess thats the point!
