V for Vendetta

I finally saw “V for Vendetta”, it was actually in when I went to rent movies at the corner store today. I have but one thing to say about this movie:

“Freedom! Forever!”

Yes, the movie rocked beyond belief. I found myself unable to stop watching it, even when I got hungry, I put off eating ’til the movie was over. It has a fantastic storyline, and it has gone to the top of my “Buy” list, along with Sin City. Apparently graphic novels make great movies, because these two ROCKED.

My only problem with the movie? It seems to condone anarchy, but then again, that was the whole point of the graphic novel. I thought the whole “Remember, Remember the Fifth of November, the Gunpowder Treason and Plot; I know of no reason why the Gunpowder Treason should ever be forgot.” rhyme was very catchy, but really only when V was saying it. I know why Guy Fawkes tried to blow up the Parliament building all those many years ago, but I don’t agree with him. That doesn’t mean I don’t think he should have done it, just not for the reasons he did. England was way too powerful for a time, and that would’ve knocked it off guard, now wouldn’t it? The only downside? There wouldn’t be a Canada! :-(
