voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin van-guarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition.

……Yeah, That’s the dialogue from the movie V for Vendetta. Sunday….aaah time to stay put at home and pop in a good movie. This week i chose “V For Vendetta”…Now I am speechless

Now let me break down the movie into 3 parts

1. The Plot

The plot is excellent, it is a story of real ideas not science fiction , but a genuine examination of the human condition. The power of fear is the main theme, the fear of war, of disease, of famine. The dialogues are Intense, witty and most importantly intelligent. The hero is V , a masked terrorist with vengence in mind, a taste for the eloquent, and a hand for knife-wielding acrobatics. His apprentice is Evey, a young woman V saved from corrupt Fingermen (cops in the movie..though i’m not sure which finger they had in mind ). And hot on his trail is Chief Inspector Eric Finch.

2. The Cast

Hugo Weaving …. V
Natalie Portman …. Evey Hammond
Stephen Rea …. Chief Inspector Eric Finch.

These three characters really stand out in this movie. The best was Hugo Weaving’s performance. It is definitely what grabs you from the start. He delivers some of the hardest lines with incredible charisma. His performance is awesome throughout the movie. Natalie Portman has done a very good job as Evey and her performance is totally different from her other movies.

3. Visuals

Everything looks beautiful, dark yet vibrant. The cinematography is top notch. The final battle scene was really amazing.

I see no reason why the gunpowder treason should ever be forgot.” - V
