With the litany of comic book films being made in 2017, it's hard to understand the role V for Vendetta has played in 'Comic Book Movie' culture. This was one of the early successes of the genre and it continues to shine today in ways other movies (I'm looking at you, Marvel) have not. The grittiness of the story cannot be understated, this story is DARK. However, the message of the story is one of hope, and…
People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.
In a world in which Great Britain has become a fascist state, a masked vigilante known only as “V” conducts guerrilla warfare against the oppressive British government. When V rescues a young woman from the secret police, he finds in her an ally with whom he can continue his fight to free the people of Britain.

However, it is a bit heavy handed and too on the nose (perhaps…
**Score: 10/10 — An Unshakeable, Flawless Cinematic Masterpiece** Some films entertain. Some films provoke. And then there is *V for Vendetta*—a rare, volatile work that does both with a ferocity that has not dimmed in the years since its release. It is a film that ignites the imagination, challenges the conscience, and delivers its message with the force of an explosion scored to Tchaikovsky. It is a faultless…
