Best movie ever!

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

After being told over and over again from friends to watch this film, I finally got to it. Despite it being overhyped by them, I still found myself captivated by V For Vendetta. There was something brilliant about seeing our "hero" at face value just like every other character along the way. There was no Batman/Bryce Wayne, there was only V and because of that it made him more of a myth and much more intriguing for what he stood for.Vengence is in the title, but it so much more than that with a deeper meaning that rivals some of the best in Hollywood. I found myself reading more into the "idea" V represented. Now one of my favorite Comic Book Films.

...but not a touch on the comics though, and Natalie Portman sounds South African not English. Hugo Weaving is brilliant as ever. Worth a watch but not a challenging one all together.

As far as I'm concerned, this is one of the greatest films ever made, despite being relatively unknown in comparison with other films of the genre; whether you see it as a film of its own or a film loosely based off DC comics, there's no denying it's a truly remarkable work of art brought to the big screen (again, from whether or not the perspective is standalone or based).Packed full of exquisite dialogue and fantastic, well-written performances, it's clear and simple as to why it's in my top five. The plot is superbly written and has a lot of depth to it. If you're a fan of ambiguous movies, this one counts. I mean, to me there's a lot of ambiguity involved, but not just in terms of personal opinion, but rather I mean there genuinely is a lot of unanswered stuff. Tremendous as it is, I still don't know whether or not this is my favorite Hugo Weaving role. I loved his role as Agent Smith too, from The Matrix. Actually, no. As much as I adore and love The Matrix, this is the pinnacle mark right here. This is his defining role if you ask me. The saddening thing is that V does, in fact, die at the end... but the day he sought all along doesn't die. It merely even starts. It's just the beginning.... The fact of the matter is this - no face, no worries. You don't even get to see his face once in the film (unless the Rockwood scene counts, but it really doesn't), and it matters not one bit. The voice and the movement are enough. A genius portrayal indeed.All side and co-characters are phenomenal in their respective roles. As it is a joint-character film, the other lead is (as most people will know), Natalie Portman - she is very good in the film, and does a terrific job; and this too is perhaps her defining performance...
A marvellous film.
