V is reborn in flame from the fire at the facility while Evey is reborn in water after she was captured. It's such a stark contrast but it explain their development so well. In the first half of the story, Evey is a pretty passive character, never taking an active stance (the movie changed her encounter with the bishop, in the original novel, V abbandons her after the kill, while movie Evey has more agency trying to run away, something that imho hurt the overall message of the rebirth scene), but after her rebirth, she's much more decisive and active to the plot

Another thing to look at is the symbolisms of fire and water. Fire is often considered as the force of purification, meant to scorch the earth and destroy all that surrounds it with no prejudice nor apathy, both the dominant evil and the silent good. Water is the force of healing, meant to rejuvinate the land after it has been made pure and to foster a new world where good and evil is given opportunity to redefine the land again. When V's plot is finally completed and Parliament is blown up, the symbolism of the dead taking off their masks is that though we lost the silenced good to the fire, they did not die in vain as the great evil is finally vanquished. And V turning over the Gallery to Evey is meant to basically symbolize, "With this little bit of water (the little good left from the old world), go and do what I hoped to do but am not able to. Give new life to the land."

For those who don't know the history the real Guy Fawkes was not hung. After being captured and tortured so badly that you can see it in his signature from when he was first captured to his last signature how bad they messed him up. They actually brought him out in public to hang him as a symbol to the people but instead of doing that he instead jumped off the stairs and ended up breaking his own neck on the ground on impact.

Close. He was going to be hanged, drawn, and quartered. In that process, the victim is hanged to the point of unconsciousness so that they are still alive when they are "drawn".

One of my all-time favourite movies, just such great performances, great cinematography and great writing.

Once did a small study about the score of this movie. There’s so many small nuances like when the orchestra goes from major to minor during V’s recorded speech when he tells people that something is very wrong with the society. Thanks for doing this one guys! Appreciate you!

I have had a complicated relationship with this movie. I was a fan of the original Alan Moore comic for years before this movie was made, and I was both excited and nervous about seeing it. Considering how bad comic book adaptations were, for the most part, it was definitely a gamble to attempt to adapt something as dense as one of Alan Moore's more political works. Upon release, I thought it was...ok. A massively trimmed-down and altered story, with several elements that I considered vital to the story omitted, an American leading lady, sub-Matrix action... However, upon repeated viewings the film has definitely grown on me. Weaving's performance and delivery is excellent. Portman's performance (especially during the Valerie sequence) is profoundly moving. The supporting cast is stellar. The tone is, if you can believe it, considerably less bleak than the comic whilst still conveying the oppressive feeling. There are a few mis-steps, in my humble opinion, but it holds up very well and is still an enjoyable movie to watch.

My hot take is that Alan Moore is the George Lucas of comic books; he has amazing ideas and fully fleshed worlds, but his writing is not great. I felt the V comic was a little flat. Evey and the detective werent as interesting. I did like the deaths a lot more and the role of AI as the perfect tool of tyranny that ultimately was its greatest weakness was VERY cool.

I. Was. OBSESSED. With this movie after I saw it as a teen. I used to sit in class and memorize the V speech when he meets Evey, can still quote it on cue from memory.

Absolutely love this movie, so glad you guys decided to review it

My dad showed me this movie when I was maybe around 13/14 years old. I remember reading 1984 and finding a lot of similar themes and ended up using a lot of imagery from the movie for a film project on 1984, particularly the scenes of the big screen and High Chancellor representing Big Brother. V for Vendetta and 1984 will always be some of my favorite pieces of media.

There are very few movies that give me goosebumps anymore, but I remember watching thing and having chills because it was just making me feel so much. Valerie's story, the little girl... One of the things I loved about this movie was that it made bold choices, not just artistic ones but thematic ones. This movie has a point of view, a clear sense of moral and ethical right and wrong. And it's not the sort of "wrong" that is the Galactic Empire goose-stepping around, it's the kinda of wrong or injustice that you can feel in your bones. I feel like that's what pissed off some conservative media pundits. They were all complaining "this movie is preaching that it's wrong for conservative movements to demonize gay people," and the rest of society was like... "yeah, because it is." Another thing I give this movie a ton of credit for is how cynical its view of modern government and media is and how spot on, as well. This dystopian future feels SOOOOO plausible.

as someone living in the uk, this movie is THE BEST, it gives me chills, that ending climax

Interestingly, Adam Sutler (the "easy role") is played by John Hurt. John Hurt also played the lead, Winston Smith, in 1984 - the 1984 adaptation of Nineteeneightyfour (that's a mouthful). Basically the same film, but John Hurt playing the oppressed rather than the oppressor!

Fun fact: The High Chancellor - the big face on the screen - is played by the late, great John Hurt..... who also played the main character in the 1984 adaptation of George Orwell's "Nineteen Eighty-Four".

My godson's favourite movie. We turned up to a late screening at the London IMAX a few years after release. He was 11, it is/was a 15. The usher took one look at him...... and waived us through. Dude got it.

Mind twisting fact: in "Matrix" Hugo Weaving played the Agent Smith, one of the main enforcers fo the oppression, whereas John Hurt, here as High Chancellor Sutler, the main oppressor, played the role of Winston Smith in Michael Radfords' adaptation of Orwell's "1984". Both of them "switched sides" across two different movies :D

When you said the thing about the title High Chancellor being suspicious, that made me think of my first watch through of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. The second they introduced Fuhrer Bradley, I was like, "with a title like that, this dude has to be a bad guy."

"I can't get over how big that monitor is..." You need to see "1984" (1984) You'll understand why John Hurt was cast in that part.

V was supposed to be Marc Purfoy. But he left. 50% of the movie was filmed. That is why the mask never comes off. If you look close you can tell where it is Weaving and where Purfoy. They are VERY different sized men.

The movie was tough to watch back then, its tough to watch right now. And as much as id like that to happen, with the way things are going I can not see its message becoming irrelevant anytime soon.

Weaving carries this movie on the strength of his voice alone.

They actually played down V's quoting things in the movie. He did it all the time in the book. Good variety too. For example, he introduced himself to the priest saying "please allow me to introduce myself, I'm a man of wealth and taste," taking off his mask to reveal horns (quote from the stones song Sympathy for the Devil.) Continuing the theme, when the priest asks who he is, he quotes one of Charles Manson's followers; "I am the devil, and I come to do the devil's work." He does it so often that when Evey pretends to be him showing up for the crowd after V dies, she introduces herself with a Twain quote; "rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated"

That was a seamless sponsorship transition well done

I can’t remember how much of a box office success it was, but it was DEFINITELY a big pop culture moment (aka - why we still know that iconic mask because Anonymous took it as their symbol and this movie even inspired the Anonymous movement). I was obsessed with this movie as an edgy 14-year-old 🤣 For Halloween that year, my high school allowed costumes. I went as V and didn’t let anyone know who I was (of course, until classroom roll call 😂) That is such a core memory for me and I had so much fun. I got a lot of compliments on it, had some fake daggers with me, & just kinda snuck & stalked around school all day. Didn’t break character unless absolutely necessary. I was committed 😂 I knew the instant I saw the movie I wanted to do V for Halloween. I had even come up with a few fun phrases like V’s in the gap between that spring and fall. It’s the one Halloween that I went ALL OUT and I’ll never forget it. It got in my school yearbook for that year.

That motion blur following the knives in V's death scene is exactly why I throw knives. The complex tumble, going just where I intend, is beautiful to me, especially when I can dance around and whip or huck the knives. You can throw fast and hard and accurately, without spin, with throwing spike technique, but for me, that defeats the purpose. The complex, compound motions are mesmerizing and serene, a sort of dynamic meditation, like pool in many ways. I like to play darts with steak knives, and I can hit the button often enough to make me feel good (gets me kicked out of bars, though).

Based on the graphic novel series, published from 1988-1989. At the time of the film's release, the story was relevent to a post 9/11 world. All speaking to the state of nations, governments and societies. This was the directorial debut of James McTeigue (2nd unit for The Matrix Trilogy). The Wachowskis' next project after The Matrix Trilogy as producers/screenwriters. Hugo Weaving as V was incredible and the end result of the story means so much. The infamous mask itself has gone for beyond it's one presence in the film. November 5th as the actual holiday of Guy Fawkes Day makes the character of 'V' so meaningful.

It was Hugo Weaving behind the mask as I saw making of behind the scenes stuff and he was there without his mask on, fantastic film I really enjoyed this.

33:25 In ALMOST all the scenes it WAS Hugo Weaving under the mask (NOT an extra), except for the fire scene, when stunt double Chad Stahelski literally walked through fire (wearing just a special refrigerated fire resistant gel and a g-string), and several scenes shot in the first month of filming when James Purefoy (the actor originaly cast in the role) was playing the part. He left after 7 weeks citing creative differences with the film-makers and was replaced with Weaving, but some of his takes remained in the movie, albeit with Weaving's voice overdubbed in post production. The director said HE could tell the difference due to subtle differences in the way they moved, but doubted the audience would ever be able to tell.

This is one of those movies that will remain in my memory for a long time. I went to the theater to see it with my room mates at the time. The IRL incident that helps to make it even more memorable, during the domino scene either they burned the popcorn at the snack counter or some dumbass pulled the fire alarm. Right as he triggered the dominos fall. Everyone had to leave the building out into a raging thunderstorm. When the fired peeps cleared the building as safe we went back in. They started the movie at the same scene with him flicking the domino. Very surreal.

Valerie's letter got me through an incredibly difficult time as a teen and I'd love to get her last lines tattooed at some point. Also, this might seem like a random suggestion but if you want some more Hugo Weaving being amazing then you should watch The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert!

From what I heard, the writer for the comic for V for Vendetta was outraged by the film, which took what he considered a powerful work of art that he believed could change the world through paradigm shift and turning it into a schlock action film.

Allan Moore apparently hated the film adaption of "From Hell"....I can understand where he's coming from, on the other hand, I enjoy both films.....for whatever that is worth

Alan Moore does sniff a lot of his own farts. His work is always style over substance, since the substance is invariably introductory philosophy.

Its funny that alan Moore has been donated his money to Marxist and communists type organizations.

anyone who thinks you can change the world through anarchy is an idiot.

I still remember the first time I watched this. The feelings that it engenders are unreal.

Big guy on the Tv is John Hurt. Was also in 1984. Now John Hurt is essentially big brother

25:00 In the comic this is around the time the police man drops acid a d trips out in the burnt out ruins of the test centre.

Yea, this has been my favorite movie since I first saw it. I didn't even know it existed for years, then my wife showed me it one night when we first started dating, we had a movie night at her apartment and we had a nice dinner we cooked together and she put in this DVD and she told me she loved this movie and I needed to see it because I was "missing out". We watched it in near silence cuddled up and I said afterwards "wow, this is my favorite movie I've ever seen"...and it has stayed that way for going on 15 years now. I still watch it at least once a month. Just a great film. Also I was inspired to give roses to all of my victims as well. So I grow roses in our yard for all the ants and beetles and other insects I annhilate with the lawn care lol.

I remember vaguely watching this movie with little knowledge or interest but the more I saw the more I was sucked in and by the end I was blown away and hungry for more. I very rarely see a movie by chance and become such an instant fanboy but I went out immediately the next day and bought my own copy. Great film, I like to recommend and share this one.

The torture sequence gets me everytime

I was hoping you two would react to this movie, this is one of my favorite movies of all time, the reactions every time V makes an appearance out of nowhere its just gold XD

I really like that the fireworks in the final scene form a "V" in the sky! 🙂

The "Big Guy" on the screen is John Hurt, the actor from Alien, who had the creature burst out of his chest.

The Chancellor is John Hurt, like from the movie of 1984 lol also the guy that had a creature crawl out of his gut in Alien (and Spaceballs:-)

Regarding Mr. Creedy and his garden, I found this quote from Doctor Who (Ep: Heaven Sent): "What, are you gardeners? I hate gardening! What sort of a person has a power complex about flowers? It’s dictatorship for inadequates. Or to put it another way, it’s dictatorship."

I love this movie, have seen it multiple times, have showed it to my friends, and I still had no idea V was voice by Hugo Weaving 🤣. Credit to him he did a great job

I make a point to always watch it at least once a year on the 5th of November, one of my favorites!

A master piece, intemporal movie !

This movie is so good, I'm slowly making my way through all of your movie reactions guys, keep up the good work!

You have no idea how chuffed I am to see this. I literally was getting excited recently because I was thinking 'hopefully people will do more V For Vendetta reactions now we're getting closer to November/Guy Fawkes night' and then this appears - woohooo!

Ok, you got me with the nordvpn segway, I busted out laughing at that "subtle" transition.

Hugo Weaving, from Priscella, LOTR, the Matrix-es, and of course, this, V, is a gem. Acting like this is a gift to us all

Literally, anything Alan Moore makes is gold.

In a similar fashion I suggest Equilibrium
