Anybody else see this?

Overall, I thought it was a pretty good flick. It had moments of greatness and moments of not-so-greatness. But worth seeing!

I really want to see this. I hated (yes, you read that right) all of the Matrix flicks so the Wachoskis have a lot to make up for, but I'm willing to give it a shot!

You probably know this, but people should keep in mind the Wachoskis only produced and wrote the screenplay for V for Vendetta. So, its not quite a Wachoski movie... It's more like someone else playing around with their framework. though you definitly can see their influence here and there.

One thing i really liked is that, even though its based on a comic, it's very much a movie with a begining middle and end. And while their are a few scenes that seemed off, most of it was very cool to watch!

I can see hating the third, but none of them? Not even as pure action thrillers?

Yeah. The first two matrix films are brilliant.

I really wanna see this. I'm not a huge fan of the Matrix, but I think they're clever films (apart from the third one ). I think the actors in this are pretty damn good, and all the reviews I've read for the film have been atleast four stars.

The movie is good entertainment, I reckon... not more, not less.

It's almost a kind of Phantom of the Opera / 1984 crossover. Some ideas are a bit lame because you've seen them before in so many other movies (like the whole "evil government is manipulating and surppressing its people" thing), but Portman & Weaving aren't too bad in the movie.

I was just a bit pissed off because you never get to see Hugo Weaving without the mask. He's such a great actor!

Overall it is a pretty good movie.

V is very charming....if you know what I mean

LMAO to that vid XD hahaha cooooookie

I really enjoyed V for Vendetta, i thought that V was also very charming and i did feel sad about the ending. And natalie portman was really good as Eve! I loved the action sequences aswell, espcially the final one in the old tube station. It was all very well filmed and thought out i found.

Kinda made me wanna go actually DO something when i came out of the cineama
