Virtuosically superlative

Rating: 8/10 (8 April 2006)

Brilliant film, great cast and story. Hugo Weaving once again shines with some brilliant lines. Favourite of all has to be his introduction to Evey simply because it's a real tongue twister with all them words beginning with v in them... have to wonder if the script writer or whomever came up with that intro looked through the dictionary for what v words they could put in it.
Thought Natalie Portman's accent wasn't too bad, though reminded me a lot of Gwyneth Paltrow and now I know why as she was taught by the same dialect coach as Gwyneth.
Soundtrack was good, 1812 overture being a perfect choice for the explosive scenes.
Can see why some vacuous people might try to vilify it but I vehemently think it is a vibrant movie and should be seen with an open mind.
