razorjakMy short and sweet review of "V for Vendetta".
Alan Moore insisted that his name be stricken from this project. That was his choice.
It was the WRONG choice.
Go see this movie!
Spoilers below the cut. You were warned.
I never realized until now that Hugo Weaving WAS the voice I heard in my head when I read V's dialogue almost twenty years ago. It fits so perfectly. And his mannerisms were spot on how I imagined V would move and react.
No the movie was not spot on with the comic. but it was closer than I figured it would be. It was so good I was almost able to forget the Wachowskis had their filthy little fingers on the screenplay ... until the obligatory "bullet-time" fight scene came about.
Honestly, my only dissappointment was when V killed the female doctor. I was looking forward to her asking him if she could see his face one last time. That dialogue was the one that I remember most from when I first read the story.
V for Vendetta has always held a special place in my heart. It was the last comic book that my best friend from school and I shared together. We read it during AIT.
