Default V for Vendetta

i think this movie was Very good

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0434409/
http://vforvendetta.warnerbros.com/

i never read the comics and i think the story is a very cool idea (but since i don't know the story i don't know how much the movie differs from the real stroy, but the movie one was good)

a def. watch, and if you can see it in IMAX, it was amazing.

I just watched it and really enjoyed it. Finally something based on comics and with a really clever story. I'm tired of all the superheroes and their superhuman nemesisis.

Anyone know what song was featured by Tjaikovski?

I thought this movie was excellent and I saw it on Imax which is always better.
Sin City was another good movie made from a comic book.
The political themes in the movie were very on key with what governments are starting to do now.

I thought it was a good movie!

Very good start and the middle was also good, dropped a bit of the tension in the end... but overall, 4 JWs of 5!

and Hugo Weaving is doing the Vendetta part REALLY good!

"Remember remember the fith of November..."

It was a pretty good movie, worth watching in the theater. 8 out of 10.

good movie just thought it needed some more action, as the action sequences in the first hour or so were pretty damn cool

Saw this movie last night. Awesome is all I have to say. I dont really know where I can fault it. Its a film for political people, comic people, action people, and inteligent people. Its a love film, a action film. I'd give it 10/10. And the 2 scenes at the end are awesome, But i wont spoil it.

Must agree with everyone else here. . . good movie over all. Excellent dialog and script. Reminds me of Pulp Fiction, just awesome dialog between the characters.

Yes Hugo played it very well.

8/10. . .

"Remember remember, the Fifth of November. . . "

Side Note: I heard the guy that came up w/ the original story did not like it at all. Heard that he did not like how they "turned" the film into an Anti-US film based on terrorism and what not. He said his original intent was about Dictatorships in general, not against the US.

i watched it yesterday and I thouroughly enjoyed it. It's one of only a few good films based on comics. Everything was perfect, the script, the dialogs, the actors performance. hugo Weaving dserves a thumbs of even though his face was covered by the mask throughout the entire film. His speeches made him very poetic.
