Just returned from watching V for Vendetta [View All]

and if this doesn't wake up the rest of the people who are still asleep, nothing will.

It was as accurate a depiction of what the US has become as anything you can imagine. Although the hero, V, is a character of fantasy, the allegory is profound. He represents an idea. And ideas, of course, cannot be killed. Just like The Matrix, there are very important lessons buried in the plot. I don't want to share anymore and spoil it for anyone.

Although my expectations of the film were incredibly high, it did not disappoint. It was everything I expected it to be. I encourage not only your seeing it, but take someone along who is not yet awake to the dangers that we now face.
