There hasn't been very much good movies of late. I'm glad to see V for Vendetta come around, it was fantastic. I loved the theme that people should not be afraid of their government, government should be afraid of their people. Honestly one of the best movies I've seen, 10/10. Anyone else have opinions on the matter?

I've heard of that movie and I wanna see it soo baaaaaaaad!!!! It looks awesome dude.:thumbsup:
I made a thread about this one the day after it was premeired. It's good, but most people went in expecting to see some action movie, and were disappointed. I absolutely loved it, though. You might hear a lot of the comic book fans bitch about V being some sort of romanticized hero, but it actually works well and doesn't detract from the overall experience..unless you're the kind of person that thinks every story should always be told in the exact same way in every medium.
I thought it was pretty good. it was really symbolic
GUNPOWDER TREASON AND PLOT
Symbolic? Harldy. V for Vendetta is about as blunt as you can get. Does that mean it's bad? No, but it certainly isn't subtle about its message.

I also really liked this movie. you don't need action to have a good movie, but there was still enough to keep you into the movie. i really loved the setting in time and how the governments were corrupt and such. i never read the comic, but i still thought it was well made, and there were never parts of the movie where i was bored. it was also one of those movies for me where i wanted to watch it again, as opposed to a movie where you watch it once and never watch it again.
This was a pretty good film, not excelent, but still pretty good.
I laughed after the movie when people were critisizing that it wasn't there wasn't enough action.

I was disappointed in how they changed it from the novel, but it was still none the less a good movie.
Am I the only one concerned with this? They're so exposed to "action-packed" action films that they suffer from withdrawal when they see a movie that isn't just that.
You're not.
That was the general adolescent opinion on Superman Returns. For some reason, alot of thirteen year olds went into a re-origin/sequel movie expecting Superman, a known powerhouse, to go head to head with Lex Luthor, a mere human. Dumbtards. Superman Returns was a great movie and didn't need action.
And considering that V for Vendetta was pretty violent, I don't see how it could have needed more action. Not all movies are made by Michael Bay.
Hahahaha...wow, that was horrible.
I guess they think the Wachowskis only make films just like The Matrix.
I'm not to concerned really, I just let them complain when there isn't enough action or if there isn't enough of anything, I just like good films.
Oh, and tocorrect what I said(I was typeing fast)I meant that I just laughed after the movie when people critized it for not having enough action.

Hell yeah it was a good movie-
I love the kinds of movies that are all about revolutions and revolutionaries, fighting against the corruption of the world. And the symbolism was brilliant as well, w00t!
And the nice cherry on top was the fact that Portman is so hot- even without hair =P
I got the poster on my wall.

......Why do people think it has symbolism in it?
Um.
The act of destroying Big Ben was a symbolic act, or something.
Did you watch the movie? They talk about it a lot >_>
Here, I found a quote for you:
V: The building is a symbol, as is the act of destroying it. Symbols are given power by people. Alone, a symbol is meaningless, but with enough people, blowing up a building can change the world.

The movie discusses symbolism, but the movie itself has virtually no symbolism in it. We aren't talking about the subject matter of the movie. We're talking about the movie as a work of art and its composition.
