V for Vendetta


What can I say... an extremely intense intriguing movie with some extremely powerful moments. Let's all hope that goverments in the future aren't like this. It's a movie of our times, warning us of the perils that could lie ahead. More than that, it feels extremely real. You would never have thought that the Wachowski Brothers were involved in this.... gone are the crappy cgi and action... next to no bullet time and blood actually flows, you feel the pain inflicted. This is up there with Se7en, Kong, Fight Club and LOTR... the only few movies that for me have made a real impact that you can still feel for an hour after leaving the theater. Hugo Weaving is incredible as "V", never once do you feel he is wearing a mask and that his lips aren't moving. Amazing too is Natalie Portman, she proves she can act... pity George Lucas couldn't show us that.

Definately a movie to see more than once on the big screen.... go and fuckin' see it!
