Find The Movie V For Vendetta Today

By Maria Tucker

I must acknowledge that the day I watched the trailer for "V For Vendetta" at the movie theater My spouse and I wasn't even close to being willing to pay $9.00 a ticket to see that person with a funny mask on his face. It seemed to me it might be one more of those simple movies extracted from a not very known "comic" that are appearing in movie theaters quite often nowadays. However that I have watched it, I believe I was judging this film wrong and not being totally fair with the writer and movie director.

It had been very surprising to follow the story and its continuous resemblance to what is happening today in a not too far away country and not too strange neighborhoods. The film is in England and it has been taken over by several fanatics that have concluded that their reason to live is power and the imposition of his world model and ideas over everybody and everywhere. There is a continuous war outside the borders and inside democracy is over; in the mean time fear is alive.

Individuals have lost the strength of questioning reality and have become conscience of the awful consequences of living under such a decadent regime. It is a model based not in reason not in justice. Is the model "fascists" preach, exactly where obedience and a "clock-like" functioning of the society in the interest of a few "chosen ones" is required.

However suddenly there is a problem upsetting the "status-quo", they (with no knowledge of) have created their own finisher. It's a figure that appears to us as a mix of revenge with a revolutionary mind, its name is "V". Though the movie makes it closer to a simple vengeance thirst of this character, which is a bad point for the writer, but anyway; the film put us in front of tyranny being challenged by a single questioner, a single doubt of what is new to that society and his menace to multiply those doubts when the right time has come.

Additionally there is the human side of "V", he meets the girl in the motion picture while sadly she is going to be raped by several secret agents of the "fascist" regime that have found her walking at the wrong hours. You aren't even the owner of your time as long as the preachers of "England Prevails" are in power. She escapes safely thanks to "V" but only to be initiated into the world of those who will change that world. She would be the guest and prisoner of "V" until she finally learns that there is absolutely nothing to fear but fear itself.

At the end there seems to be a split of the vengeance appetites of "V" and the revolutionary intentions that have been growing as the story develops. It becomes somewhat clear that everything from the old regime must die, including "V", but he has left a final gift and maybe a lesson for those who want to learn it. Passions belong to individuals and can be very powerful forces; but revolutions can not be made by one or two individuals, revolutions are made by the conscience and will of the people.
