What can anyone do in the face of true tyranny? When simple criticism is outlawed, what chance does a revolution have? How do you inspire a nation that’s been bullied into silence? The story begins with a comment on the power of an individual idea. Additionally, we are given a brief history of a failed rebellion in Great Britain and the man behind it, Guy Fawkes (portrayed by Clive Ashborn). Next, we flash-forward to an unspecified point in the United Kingdom’s future. A future in which a man by the name of Lewis Prothero (called The Voice of London and played by Roger Allam) has his own nightly broadcast and uses it to espouse his own political beliefs which always ends with the phrase “good guys win, bad guys lose, and, as always, England prevails”. Prothero is shown to the viewer on two different screens being watched by two different people. One of them, Evey Hammond (portrayed by Natalie Portman) is preparing for an evening out and turns off her television as she leaves, saying “That’s quite enough of that. Thank you very much.” The other viewer is left unidentified. Once Hammond has left her home, a public address system notifies the citizenry that a “yellow coded” curfew is now in effect. Worried that she might face consequences if she is discovered, Hammond suddenly hurries. Unfortunately, she is accosted by two men. Soon after threatening her, they identify themselves as government officials and make it clear that they intend to assault her. All seems lost for Ms. Hammond until a masked man, (voiced by Hugo Weaving) intervenes on her behalf. Our man in the mask subdues Ms Hammond’s attackers and then tells her that she may call him V. V claims to be a musician on the way to a concert and asks Evey to join him. V appears delusional to Evey at first, conducting a symphony that she can neither see nor hear, when the same public address system that informed of the curfew begins playing Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture. Before the song is finished, she is surprised again by an explosion which destroys the Old Bailey, home of the Central Criminal Court and an iconic piece of London architecture. As V revels in the destruction of the Old Bailey, it becomes clear to Evey that he was responsible and as government officials observe her next to V in the surveillance footage, they incorrectly assume Evey was somehow involved. When V for Vendetta was first in theaters, it was the source of much debate. Fans of the graphic novel complained that it took liberties with the story. Others worried that it justified terrorism. Having not read the graphic novel, I can’t comment on the first part. On the second part, at the time it occurred, people might’ve seen the Boston Tea Party as terrorism. In a totalitarian state, where dissent is a criminal act in and of itself, terrorism might very well be the best vehicle for change. And it’s because of that, an engaging and suspenseful story, and stellar performances from the main and supporting cast that I count V for Vendetta among my favorite movies. I have seen it many times since it was released on DVD and I will, no doubt, watch it many more. If what I’ve written intrigues you at all and you haven’t seen this film yet, you absolutely should. Just one man’s opinion.

Pretty good Natalie Portman movie. Good addition to my collection.

Once in a while, a movie comes along that blows you and your mediocre expectations completely out of the water. For those of us that like fast paced, thick, thorough plots, V for Vendetta is a piece of Heaven. With an in-your-face story line, huge action sequences, and amazing actors to pull it all off, its a must-see. Hugo Weaving executes the main character V flawlessly, managing to take a truely faceless character and give him the personality and emotional spectrum of the masses without breaking a sweat. Natalie Portman co-stars as a quiet, mousey girl turned into a strong, determined woman of the revolution. Rent it... no... BUY it! You'll watch it over and over.

I loved the whole plot of this movie. It really touched me because there are a lot of corrupt governments in this world. It was one of those sentimental movies that make you really feel what the characters are feeling and going through. This is such a great movie; I love it! It broadens your mind about the world. I really liked the character V, he is so cool. His passion for justice was intriguing; it was just sad that he had to die.

Most movies now a days are good on the surface, but lack any real depth. V for Vendetta is an exception to this trend. The plot is offers alot of depth and there is alot of hidden messages within. If you like a movie that makes you think a little bit and offers a felling of hope, then you won't be able to find much better.

V for Vendetta is a classic graphic novel come to life by the people who made The Matrix. While it doesn't have the jaw dropping effects The Matrix has it does have well written story and gives us a grim look at what the future may hold. The movie is well acted but can be a little slow at some points and for something billed as being an action movie there isnt a lot of action in it. All in all a good movie I upgraded my DVD to Blu Ray for the better quality all the extras are the same.

I love this movie even though I'm actually very conservative. There is just something in the narrative that grabs you. The movie is action packed, but the action is good that is there. They get the meaning across, and the locations are cryptic and memorizing. If you want a movie that'll make you think, get this one.

This is one of the best movies I have ever seen in my life. It is so complex and complicated. I had to watch this several times to understand everything, but it wasn't a pain to do so. Much better than the comic book!!!

this is an amazing movie! few movies have the depth of the plot that v has. great character building, awesome story, intense all the way through, truely a must see.

I had been putting this movie off for about a year now, but I totally had no idea of what I was missing. This movie is dynamite. Literally. This is a must-have in your film collection.

This is on point. On how the government has played us all. People need to wake up
