Set against the futuristic landscape of totalitarian Britain, V For Vendetta tells the story of a mild-mannered young woman named Evey who is rescued from a life-and-death situation by a masked vigilante known only as "V." Incomparably charismatic and ferociously skilled in the art of combat and deception, V ignites a revolution when he detonates two London landmarks and takes over the government-controlled airwaves, urging his fellow citizens to rise up against tyranny and oppression. As Evey uncovers the truth about V's mysterious background, she also discovers the truth about herself - and emerges as his unlikely ally in the culmination of his plot to bring freedom and justice back to a society fraught with cruelty and corruption.
In the not too distant future, Britain is filled with torture cells, unfair punishments, prejudice against minorities. However in the midst of all this chaos, one man known only by the name V dares to stand up to the government and is labeled as a terrorist. One night V rescues a mild young woman called Evey Hammond and an unlikely bond between the two emerges which results with Evey becoming Vs ally. But though V may be charismatic and have a passion for justice he also is bitter and has his own personal hatred of the government for something they did to him long ago. As November the 5th, the day V says he and those who will follow him will stand up to the government once and for all approaches, Detective Finch becomes more and more determined to uncover the truth about V, however his search leads him to ask to question whether or not he is on the right side.
There are some that will, upon seeing this film, say that it was akin to Andrew Lloyd Weber attempting to make a political statement: overly dramatic. These people would be well served to remember that the symbol of drama is a mask, which certainly begs one important question- Why, if you are so put off by an overtly dramatic motion picture, would you choose to see a movie that stars as the (anti)hero a man in a mask? I just saw this film at an advanced screening and I must say it is nothing short of uniquely brilliant. Entertaining from the start, V manages to combine a strong socio-political message in a compact and highly intense experience. Infused with issues and concepts that pervade in the global political climate of our times, this movie is endowed with a tremendous timely relevance that belies its trappings as a mere action adventure.<br/><br/>The acting, the cinematography, the effects, and the general vision of this film all lead me to believe that it will likely receive a cult following. It is only my hope that the message of this film will come to summarize the history of our future ascendancy to true liberty.<br/><br/>Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country. In the meantime, go see this movie.
&quot;V for Vendetta&quot; was entertaining. I&#39;ve read that the story is based on a graphic novel that I am not familiar with and so I probably missed many of the movie&#39;s references. The story concerned a revolutionary, V, in his battle with a future totalitarian English government. V enlists the help of young women, Evey, played by Natalie Portman, who he rescues from some predatory, corrupt police officials. Much of the story revolves around Evey and her relationship with the V character. Telling more would ruin the story. There&#39;s quite a bit of violence in the movie and towards the end there&#39;s a sequence of choreographed violence that I found to be too much though maybe those familiar with the graphic novel expected this kind of money shot. The movie featured many fine actors including John Hurt, Stephen Fry, Stephen Rea, Tim Pigott-Smith and others. Natalie Portman was very good, in fact she was a surprise delight of the movie. I thought she was better looking after being shorn. She&#39;s a babe. The cinematography was good and the story was complex enough to hold your interest. Some of the soliloquies were a bit idealistic but that is to be expected in this type of movie. Overall it is well worth a watch.
Mostly, it's content to remain a compelling, visually striking political mystery with some big ideas woven into it–subversive notions about integrity, liberty, and political change.
However, if you listen to the coroner&#39;s exact words, there is a suggestion of superpowers having developed: &quot;The mutations seem to have triggered the abnormal development of basic kinesthesia and reflexes.&quot; It&#39;s possible that The Wachowski brothers misunderstood, or decided to expand, the definition of kinesthesia, which is in fact that sense that allows us to determine the physical positions of our extremities in relation to ourselves. For example, it allows us to touch our nose with our eyes closed. In the case of V, we are perhaps expected to believe that he was able to comprehend his position, and the position of other objects, in the physical universe with greater speed and claity than an average human. This, combined with his increased strength, does suggest he was a form of superhero.<br/><br/>In the graphic novel, no such mention of &quot;increased abilities&quot; is made, nor are we given any reason to believe that he acts with any abnormal capability. He is not presented as a &quot;superhero&quot; in the classic, &quot;spandex-clad-with-no-visible-means-of-support&quot; sense. In the source material, V is described as &quot;a psychopath… in its most precise sense.&quot; The experimentation at Larkhill had no physical effect on him, but rather altered his perception of the world and how he occupied it. It essentially removed the subconscious censor that we all have between thought and action. Our minds/bodies work on a sequence of perception-evaluation-planning-conscience-reaction (we see a threat, we take a moment to work out how dangerous it is, then how to counter it, then we have a moment&#39;s doubt, and then we defend/attack/flee/hide). V has lost the middle steps of the sequence and as a result, his body reacts instantly and instinctively, doing exactly what he needs to in order to counter any threat without conscience. To &quot;normal&quot; people, the ability to act without fear of the consequence may seem inhuman—but not superhuman.<br/><br/>There are some elements that might be seen as supernatural, although the surface asserts a purely natural narrative; the inexplicable appearance in the swept and secure Victoria Station is one. Sending out hundreds of thousands of tight fitting costumes and tall boots, all of which appear to fit the wearers, might be another. Most of all, the image with the dominoes, intercut with Finch&#39;s psychic perception of the pattern, suggests at least a supernatural relationship to causality. They are Creedy&#39;s special police force. They do the black-bagging and interrogations, as well as having the authority to make on-the-spot judgements for offenders, without due process of law. Finch is the leader of the Nose, which is essentially the regular police force—they sniff out criminals. Sutler might be considered the Brain. The Fingers do the dirty work. The Eyes and Ears are visual and auditory surveillance (led by Heyer and Etheridge respectively). The Mouth is the news outlets, the propaganda machine (led by Dascomb). Together they make up the Head and the five senses, though only the term &quot;Fingermen&quot; survived the novel&#39;s translation to film, with the Nose, Mouth, etc left unmentioned by those names. In the film, breaking curfew is a crime for which Fingermen (the secret police) get judicial discretion on dealing with suspects (in effect, acting as judge and jury, meting out punishment themselves). The men Evey runs into in the film were planning to use this discretion to rape her with a legal seal of approval. Part of their mentality is that of seeing curfew policies as existing to protect against such things, and they will go out of their way to ensure that such things occur when curfew is broken (which the media outlets can then spin with expressions like &quot;See what happens when you break curfew?&quot;). In the graphic novel, the charge is prostitution and the Fingermen clearly state they are going to rape and kill Evey. The Old Bailey is the Central Criminal Crown Court in Central London, and yes, it is actually known today as &quot;The Old Bailey&quot;, although, officially, &quot;The Old Bailey&quot; is the name of the road on which the Court is located. This has not been revealed, but many believe ultimately it doesn&#39;t matter, believing that their purpose was never to kill/hurt people. Instead, they were to be a tool to scare/force people at the station to allow V access to the airways, and then later, to keep them busy while he made his escape. However, if they were real, Dascomb&#39;s ability to disarm them was due to either: (1) The bomb&#39;s set up wasn&#39;t so intricate that there was a right and wrong wire to be cut. If any part of the setup was disconnected, the whole thing wouldn&#39;t work. (2) He has prior experience in working with explosives, perhaps as part of military service or employment by the police. (3) He simply got lucky and guessed the correct wire. If they weren&#39;t real, then it didn&#39;t matter what he did, or did not do, as nothing would have happened either way.<br/><br/>Common arguments for them being real: (1) Killing well-known news anchors, as well as destroying their main news studio, would have stirred up more emotion amongst the government and populace than the deaths of people they&#39;ve never heard of, or buildings no one cares about. (2) V knows that as soon as possible after his message is broadcast, the BTN will surely play some sort of message against it, either the disheartening &quot;terrorist captured and killed&quot; response we saw, or something similar. By destroying the country&#39;s main news studio, as well as its top anchors immediately afterwards, it delays the time the BTN is able to broadcast a response, giving the populace who saw it more time to think it over and inevitably discuss it amongst themselves. The BTN&#39;s response will also be less believable due to the delay and in hearing it from lesser or completely unknown anchors. (3) Any single terrorist act, especially subsequent attacks (remember the first attack being the destruction of the Old Bailey) will always cause an erosion, at least temporarily, in popular support for a government.<br/><br/>Common arguments for them not being real: (1) If they had gone off, V could have been close enough to have been killed/injured in the explosion. (2) An explosive of that size would not have been great enough to cause significant damage to the building and/or BTN&#39;s propaganda apparatus. Consider that even if the explosion had destroyed the studio and a good part of the surrounding floor, surely BTN has other studios available, at other locations, which could broadcast whatever they want in a matter of minutes. (3) V displays a tendency to not kill without specific reason. Therefore, it isn&#39;t likely that he would blow up a room full of civilians who hadn&#39;t harmed him personally. However, a good counterargument to this third point is that V&#39;s Domino Plan involves inspiring violent anarchy in the UK. This will result in civilian deaths/casualties as Norsefire will undoubtedly commit even further outrage-inspiring atrocities in an attempt to restore order. Also, V clearly does not have any problem killing Fingermen and police officers who work for the state. As such, office personnel at the BTN could easily be considered among those working for the state, and therefore part of the problem. It is Latin for, &quot;By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.&quot; Although V attributes the phrase to Faust both in the graphic novel and the
