A terrorist in a futuristic dictatorship of Great Britain known only as V (Hugo Weaving) goes on British Television and declares that November 5th of next year will be known as a day for revolution against the dictatorship that they live in. In the course of waiting for that day to come, V spends his time with a young girl named Evey Hammond (Natalie Portman).
We first saw such brilliance from the Wachowski Brothers with The Matrix and they do not disappoint with V for Vendetta. This film is incredible in every aspect. It is clever, entertaining, artistic, thrilling, dramatic, and even humorous at times. Blending 1984 themes with a superhero background, V for Vendetta focuses on realistic concepts of government and fear that face us every day. Frighteningly close to what could be our future, "V" opens our eyes to the world we live in as well as entertaining us with incredible fight scenes and fast-paced action. Everything about this film is wonderful including a brilliantly wonderful performance by Natalie Portman and incredible direction by James McTeigue with writing that is to die for. Overall, this film is incredible on all accounts. I have only one thing to say to the Wachowski Brothers. Bravo. Bravo.
I highly recommend this film.
