Movie review: V for Vendetta

I've missed a lot of good movies. The good part about that is that there is enough selection to choose from, when I visit the DVD store.


V for Vendetta has a tight storyline, is fast-paced, and has deep psychological plays between the main 2 characters. As the story builds up, the reasons for the protagonist's deep hatred for the government become apparent. It's a tight script. Most fascinating of all is the fact that the protagonist is masked throughout the movie, and yet the emotions are so real and almost have a "face" of their own. Brilliant story-telling with dialogues that reveal more than actions.

After the movie, took an afternoon nap (I love those!) and dreamt of the movie... with me in it, and a storyline to match. Eerie. The longer the nap, the worse the dreams. Snapped out of it quickly.
