Movies V For Vendetta

I'm surprised there hasn't been any threads about this particular flick started. After seeing the preview I was very skeptical if it would be any good, however after seeing it myself I have to admit it was a really good watch. The really clever use of symbolism aside...

Spoiler: V

I mean, did anyone else catch the significance of V having that politician chalk an 'X' on his door if he agreed to assist him? That was just one in a million

...the well coreographed action scenes, and intriguiging storyline hooked me and kept me happy all the way through the end.

Perhaps The Wachowski Brothers (who wrote the screenplay) may yet get thier credibility back after the Matrix Sequels fiasco.

And for the record, bald or not, Natalie Portman is smoking.

Anyone else's opinions?

An incredibly smart movie. Terrific all the way with a deep plot.

As far as the Matrix movies go:

Matrix-Awsome script. For it's year, it could not have been better.
Matrix Reloaded-It was allright. The ending left a lot of people having some really good questions.
Matrix Revolutions-The questions had stupid answers, the ending isn't even well explained, and it's mostly all fights. The plot isn't that deep, it's good guy wins (dying in the process), bad guy dies, in a stupid matter no less....

what was up with those Dominos. I know what he did for a year. he stacked those dominos.
I like the Movie but there were some questionable parts F-O-R me The armor was awesome

 

One of the downers though, reading your post for some reason, is that some parts are unexplainable in the film, but you can find in the book, or the comic even.

They're not really huge important questions, but they help!^^

Spoiler: V for Vendetta

The dominos signified the chain of events resulting in the catalyst that brought about the destruction of the parliment. V set everything up (much as he did the dominos) in such a manner that all it took was a little push that would set off the chain of events leading to the overturning and destruction of the parliment on November the 5th.

Something to note, V's mark looks remarkably similar to an upside down Anarchy symbol, hmm?

I love how Agent Smith was who played V. Yeah, that might have been a spoiler to some..Or not. Anyway, The movie was excellent and the graphic Novel is also quite good.
