V for Vendetta

V for Vendetta- B+
There are only a handful of movies that are able to successfully combine visually stunning action sequences, dramatic and convincing acting, and a message that actually provokes some thought. Without the non-stop action, this movie would be memorable and satisfying. Evey is rescued by a masked man known as V, who is in the midst of igniting a revolution against futuristic totalitarian Britain. The story may be considered overcomplicated to some, and there were times throughout the movie when I remember wishing that certain scenes would have been discarded. Regardless, the movie is powerful and memorable.
