England is the source of all evil -- THANK GOD FOR Iran AND SAUDI ARABIA

Rating: 4/10 (20 August 2006)

How revealing this far-sighted movie has been to me: these evil fanatic British Christians shall - IF WE DON'T STOP THEM - attempt to murder the sexual minorities and, in the same breath, ban the poetic, peaceful, beautiful books such as Qu'ran, obviously attempting to destroy the wonderful, all-encompassing, tolerant Muslim spirituality which made UK what it is today.
Tears are invading this one viewer's face.
Meantime, what isn't asserted in the movie (but easy, oh, so easy to infer, with no remarkable stretch of imagination): truly good Christian people (not the Bush-Blair fanatics, the few loving ones), the oppressed, peaceful Muslims, the trans-gendered community and other minorities are finding both refuge and solace in Saudi Arabia and Iran, the last pillars of humaneness, tolerance and democracy. The Jewish-Christian Bible is being published in Iran and Saudi Arabia in stellar editions, translated both in Arabic and Farsi. Drunk stoned British rock stars, marginalized in their tyrannic home country, find understanding and a new home.
. . . Sarcasm apart, how sad to see very good (while by no means exceptional) means are being irresponsibly used to promote downright stupid ideological lies. I like watching movies without paying too much attention to their implied politics, but this sorry piece of propaganda doesn't leave one a choice.
Imagine a British movie from 1939 showing how it was only "evil" Churchill that tried to trick the stupid folks into believing that Nazi Germany may - you know, just MAY - have posed a threat.
Unbelievable.
V for Vendetta has its place in the history books safely assured. Not in the way its creators thought, though. In the same way Leni Riefenstahl had found her place in the history books, rather.
Altogether, a shame.
