V for Vendetta (Rated R)

This movie will teach everyone, non-British, what the word Bollocks means because they say it over and over again.

However!  Don't let that put you off on this GREAT movie.  Movie of 2006 for sure. 

We have the main 'hero' of this movie whose been adapted from a graphic novel (and comic) that appears a combo of cape from Zorro, Phantom of the Opera's mask, the fighting style from The Matrix, and the Batman's cloak of darkness.

It's a movie set in the future, in England, where a lot of people have done a lot of bad things.  They have made England into a place where listening devices, corruption from a single government, and control over people's lives.

The hero, known as 'V' (later you'll find out why in the movie) is a man who is both villain and victim in this new society.

He pledges to help the people turn on their government by announcing he will be blowing up parliament a year from his announcement and they should all be there to witness it.

A rise of the theory 'People shouldn't be afraid of their governments, but governments should be afraid of their people.'

We grab the hero's sidekick a spunky woman named Evey who gets her eyes opened to his way of thinking.

This movie has so impacted me that I have watched the DVD like 20 times since I purchased it.  In many parts of the story it gave me chills.  And the mask expression that never changes seems to play into every emotion given in the scene my minor gestures in the actor.

GET THIS MOVIE!  All your friends will be talking about it and you don't want to be out of the loop!
