![]() ![]() Weaving is perfectly cast, using his formidable physicality and imposing voice to give gravitas to the insanity of the character. Suffice it to say that a masked anarchist (voiced by Hugo Weaving) must save a young woman (Natalie Portman) during his attempt to expose corruption in the government. ![]() The plot is surprisingly complex and nuanced, and I don't want to give anything more away than the previews already have. But the idea - as V himself would be so proud to say - remains the same. It gets Moore's music if not his exact words elements are slightly different, subplots removed. The film version is everything I could have possibly hoped for - gripping, chilling, intense, exciting, heartbreaking. I was a fan of the "V for Vendetta" graphic novel, and Alan Moore disinheriting the film was a bit discouraging. ![]()
