V for Vendetta (R)

Quicklook Rating★★★

synopsis

Set against the futuristic landscape of totalitarian Britain, the story of a mild-mannered young woman named Evey who is rescued from a life-and-death situation by a masked vigilante known only as "V." Incomparably charismatic and ferociously skilled in the art of combat and deception, V urges his fellow citizens to rise up against tyranny and oppression. As Evey uncovers the truth about V's mysterious background, she also discovers the truth about herself -- and emerges as his unlikely ally in the culmination of his plot to bring freedom and justice back to a society fraught with cruelty and corruption.

MovieGoer Review

Those looking for the fourth installment of The Matrix from the Wachowski Brothers will (thankfully) not find it here. V for Vendetta packs an equally strong punch, only it’s more galvanizing than seizure-inducing.
