V for Vendetta
" A revolution without dance is not a revolution worth having."
V for vendetta is a film that's only got more viable over time. It's fascist government that's slowly building up a vast regime that controls, manipulates, and ministers it's people. Using various means of hate and fear pointed towards "others" whether homosexuals, Americas or simply other races to keep it's people inline.
V, the protagonist, is a acted to perfection by Hugo weaving. Dispite wearing a Guy Fawks mask for every instance he pulls of various emotions. It's believable that's he's a vibrant, eccentric terrorist, he pulls of a vivid sadness dispite the massive grin on the mask, he complete and utterly comes across as a viscous and violent threat to the regime.
The plot, which shows Vs Revolutionary activities manages to show various people in the city and there reactions which helps to make the inevitable victory for the revolution to be believable. Whether it's Stephen fry as a a gay TV show presenter or a family watching the news, each civilian feels like they sick of the vain Villainous government, and waiting for a reason to fight.
Natalie Portman is fantastic, she plays a lady who accidentally gets caught in Vs plot. She works wonderful along side V as she's plays a vulnerable person who's becomes a valiant revolutionist. She guides the viewer with the mystery and as she makes the final decision you can't help but root for her.
The final scene, a massive explosion that destroys parliament on guy Fawks day, while the citizens of London crowd the city's wearing the V mask. A beautiful scene that's completely satisfying. As the 1812 overture plays I had the largest grin on my face, and seeing the people take of there masks was a great finish to a great film.
I wasn't sure why I write reviews, but I think V told me, it's because behind this review is an idea, an idea that I'm trying to make bulletproof.
