My new ALL TIME favorite movie

Rating: 10/10 (29 March 2006)

Is 'V' a terrorist or a freedom fighter? What Big Brother aspects of the film do we already see present in our own society? What current world leaders remind you of the lead characters in the film and in what way? This movie is thought provoking and inspiring. It sends a wake-up call to the world. You'll be talking about it and telling your friends about it.
V for Vendetta is also brave and bold. The dictator in this movie rose to power through a campaign of fearmongering and lies. The government manipulates and almost fully controls the media. Many will see clear analogies to the Bush administration, although V for Vendetta takes it to the next level.
'V', played by Hugo Weaving, has a number of yoda-like quotes in the movie that I dug .... "Governments should fear their people," and not the other way around, and "Unlike people, ideas never die."
My wife did not want to see the movie because she thought it looked too violent. I convinced her to go with me. She LOVED this movie. At the end I looked over and she had tears running down her cheeks because, she said, the last scene in the movie was so powerful. I thought the entire movie was. You've got to see this film.
