''People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.''
Having this brilliant quote, ''V for Vendetta '' is one of the best movies I already watched in my entire life. It became one of my favorite movies, and even writing about it is hard, because there are SO MANY things to say about this outstanding movie that I get lost. I want to read the comic series as soon as I can!
I am in love with V! What a guy! What a spirit! I cannot imagine a different voice from Hugo Weaving's to talk in his place, because Hugo's is sexy as hell. Not only him, but also Natalie Portman, are excellent in their roles and they totally deserve an Oscar for it.
The movie remembered me ''Nineteen Eighty-Four'' a lot, because all people were always watching TV,their Prime Minister of Britain was always talking to the people and his officials by a Big TV, very ''Big Brother'' look alike and they also have a fascist party full of members with high privileges then the others. Not to mention that it makes a critic to many things,like the power that the minority has from the majority (And that happens in most governments) the fascism, the prejudice against everybody who is different, the control that the government has from everything that happens in a country( many ways even creating lies for scare their people and give them( the government) credit), the hypocrisy of many members of the catholic church and so on.
The plot is : In a near-future Britain after a war, the world is a bit destroyed and an extreme fascist party called Norsefire has arisen. "V", an anarchist revolutionary dressed in a Guy Fawkes mask, begins an elaborated campaign to bring down the government and awake the people to protest against the way of life they are all living. He counts with the help of Evey, a young woman who was rescued by him. Besides wanting justice, V has reasons from his past to kill the members of the Party.
