V for Vendetta

"Remeber, rebember, the fifth of November." The fifth of November is a major key point in the movie, along with many other minor symbols that make the movie what it is. V for Vendetta is a crafty movie which incorporates many hidden symbols to create a "secretive" movie. The meaning of the movie is a big part of the movie, but the battle sequences really made the movie that much more amazing.



V is the "mystery"  man of the movie. V is the primary hope of the people, even though they don't know it. V stands for the rights of the people against parliament. V is a man, who was tortured in his early years by the facist government. In his eyes, he wants revenge on the government for what they did to him and others like him. He knows that the rights of the people should be more important then a dictators power. He believes the government should be afraid of the people, not the other way around. V not only opens up EV's eyes, but the eyes of the people.



EV is a girl, along with V, has tortured by the facist government at a young age. The government took her parents away when she was young, ever sense she has been afraid to step out and be "free." Then she meets V and everything turns around for her. She is able to accept that the government needs to be stopped. She also is able to become "free" and not be afraid of the government. EV, in my eyes, represents the people in their journey of becoming "free" and non-fearful of the government.



Rating: 7 out of 10

V for Vendetta was a great movie. It made you think about the movie and what it truly meant. The directors were creative by incorporating real life events within the story, which in turn made their message come out stronger. This movie's meaning and action scenes made this an all around great movie for someone who is interested in thinking and watching fights. For me, this is my kindive movie.  "I have not come for what you hoped to do. I've come for what you did."
