V is for Victorious

Rating: 9/10 (21 July 2008)

"People should not be afraid of their government, Government should be afraid of their people"
Poetic, truthful and simply beautiful. This movie does not stop delivering from the moment it starts. Unique characters, heart breaking quotes, eye opening graphics and most of all, a story that should never be forgot.
The acting in this movie is somewhat phenomenal, Hugo Weavings portrait of "V" is not believable or fair, words cannot describe how real and psychotic the character comes across thanks to the acting. Natalie Portman does a good job of "Evey" but her English accent was really bad but almost worth forgetting because of her dedication. Any Hollywood star that allows her hair to be fully shaved in one movie really says it all as i can't really imagine someone like Jennifer Aniston doing the same.
You won't forget this movie, the acting, the story or the quotes because of one simple thing, this movie, for me, came across as a metaphor, one man standing against the odds achieving the impossible.
This movie should never be forgot.
