I loved V for Vendetta but my sister hated it because she thought it was full of awfull messages of torture death rape ect. she 3 years older than me so she kinda got the upper hand. What did u guys think, if youve seen it.
 
yeah. even though i think it could have eased up on the politics and stuff i thought it was an excellent movie. i liked it a lot.
 
I loved it, and its been my experience that lots of the reasons people cite as criticism seem the show that they might not completely grasp the concept or intention of the movie.
 
it was a movie that you wont like if you just watch it. if you actually think about whats happening and observe shit then it will become a much better movie. so for stupid people its bad
 
I think your sister needs to stop being a women's rights activist bitch. The movie was nothing like that and was really, really good. In short, your sister missed the whole point of the damned movie.
 
i thought it was awesome. although the underlying anti bush messaes (even though i agree with them) didn't really need to be there
 
My sentiments exactly

I read the reviews, and lots of them said "There was too much talking"

Thats because you dont understand what hes talking about.

I thought it was genius.

The whole gov't induced plague was a metaphor for 9/11,

and all in all, the ideas in the movie were as up to date and complex as the forefront of thinking.

it rocked
 
Actually, the movie was based off a comic book that came out well before the attacks and the state of the American government as it is today. So to say the movie is a metaphor for the 9/11 attacks would just be false.
 
well, no, because the screen play was written post 9/11... it had a shot of the bird flu on her TV when we first get to see her, so yeah.
 
im fucking pissed off, i saw this movie last night with a few of my friends (to remind you im deaf, but i still watch movies at the theaters sometimes) this movie, is the first time that i do NOT understand ONE part of what was going on with out CC. FUCK..and yet after the movie i asked what the fuck the movie was about, and they couldn't explain it to me cause it was too complicated..
 
i saw it once with my g/f.. an di was kinda explaing the movie to her throughout.. but i loved it and so did she... then i saw it again and i loved it even more because i noticed things i had missed the first time around
 
amazing movie

90% of the people who didnt like it just didnt understand it. the wachowski(sp) brothers even said this wasent a movie for the majority of americans. they simply didnt have the capacity to understand it.
 
the thing i like about it was the fact that it was like a major movie but had some things about it that were much better than the average main stream movie...overall i thought it was okay, but very badass. the badass element and V's dialogue was sweet.
 
This movie would not have worked without the Guy Fawkes mask. Like without it, it just wouldve been some guy out to get the government, but the mask just took it to a whole other level.
 
^Bingo, I just don't see how a movie with powerful imagery and symbolism cannot be enjoyable, satire just isn't a concept the average American can comprehend
 
"Remember remember the fifth of November

Gunpowder, treason and plot.

I see no reason why gunpowder, treason

Should ever be forgot..."
 
true

but at the same time, amybe it wasnt, who knows what came first the chicken or the egg, but its quite the coincidence.

And you know what they say about coincidence.

well, if you saw the movie you do..
 
it was great, except when that fat girl with teh glasses got killed, then randomly at the end of teh movie she was alive....
 
It definatly had its moments. great premise. great graphic novel. though V never learned anything. his hero from the count of monte cristo learns something, while V ignores his love,and goes for vengance. I enjoyed it, but it could have been better
