V For Vendetta reviews

I saw it at the movies and I saw it again on DVD but I just had to own V for Vendetta on Blu-ray. As well as being a superb film and one of my all time favourites it is a gorgeous film which is only enhanced with Blu-ray. The Blu-ray extras are excellent especially Natalie Portman's SNL skit which seems out of context but hysterical. Together Director James McTeigue and writers Andy & Lana Wachowski (The Matrix) are honourable to the original Comic from Alan Moore (Watchmen). Hugo Weaving's unmis­takable voice is perfect for the character V. Natalie Portman is stunning and beautiful and her performance is unforgettably heart wrenching, a very powerful and emotional actress. The supporting cast are equally as good. I love this movie so much I watch it every 5th of November and now I can watch it in 1080 HD the way it was meant to be experienced.

The only verdict is V+V=X

Great movie, Natalie Portman is convincing and V is dark and myseterious. I recommend this movie to all my friends.

It gives what it promise

V is amazing. The mystery and suspense is so well portrayed that you really feel sorry for Natalie Portmans character. I do keep on expecting V to come out with a “Mr Anderson” line though :p

This translation of a graphic novel is executed with panache and grabs you even if the novel is unfamiliar. It has a style of its own and performances to match. Recommended.

Bought this movie on DVD, loved it. Unfortunately it was borrowed by a flatmate and never came back. Perfect excuse to upgrade to Blu Ray.

Not as good as I thought it would be.
