V för Vendetta Ratings & Reviews
- theLillyPad19 april 2025A very venomous view on governments vested with voluminous sovereignty; this venerable, vibrant film will vest the viewer with valiant impulses for revolution and revivification for the vital various civilians vivisected by the vacuous systems which venture to avail themselves upon them. In view, a veritable vaudevillian veteran named "V", cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate.
- Daniel Gustavsson9 oktober 2024One of the absolute best movies ever made. It has such a charm and atmosphere and also a strong and good message. And also one of the best plot twists ever.
- Richard Thornton19 juli 2025A movie about how a government used a virus on its own people, then with the help of media propaganda was able to scare the population into complete obedience and lockdown. Seems a bit far fetched.
- darsan8 juni 2025"people should not be afraid of their governments. governments should be afraid of their people." v will forever be my fav role that hugo weaving has played and this film is even better the second time.
- Zokkiie11 april 2026A genuinely masterful adaptation of the comic. It keeps that bold, rebellious spirit but reshapes it into something that works perfectly on screen. The tone, the visuals, even the pacing — it all just clicks. Nothing feels watered down, just… refined. What really stands out is how confident it is. It doesn’t over-explain or play it safe, it just leans fully into its ideas and lets them hit. By the end, it feels less like you watched something and more like you experienced it — and yeah, it lingers in your head way longer than you expect.
- รҡ૨אρƭเ∂27 augusti 2025The timing of this film locks itself into a parallel universe with the social justice fight of the modern libertarian. The film's ability to find common ground with a modern internet anonymity movement and its demands for a new kind of freedom is absolutely groundbreaking. The freedom not to be tracked and owned by corporations and government alike would be alien to the period yet it still rings eerily similar to this old British song. The British antihero version of Forrest Gump. The significance of this film will only grow as the internet's impact on modern society inches more and more toward becoming the most instrumental invention in all of mankind's history. One of the best films in modern times. 9.7/10
- ayayron18 maj 2025"Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V."
- Ricardo Arnaz CPA, ACCA USN-retired31 mars 2026I love dystopian movies. Clockwork Orange is one of my all-time favorites. I understand what was being made and the symbolisms in the movie but to me it was just OK. I don't know if Clockwork is too high of a bar, but to my opinion, I think V was overrated. V was like Resident Evil. People say Clockwork was ultra-violent, this sure was not a box of Swedish Fish.
- ርልዪረ6 mars 2025When they made a film out of his book, writer Alan Moore seamed to think they had dumbed it down. Well if that's true then this must be the most intellectually challenging dumbed down story I've ever encountered! Made in the 2006 and set about 20 years from that time, Britain has become an Orwellian nightmare ruled by Norsefire, the British equivalent of the Nazis. Until a mystery man known only as V puts in motion his plan to bring them down. This plan is the best part of the film. It goes far beyond the typical movie uprising strategy of "Hey everyone, grab some guns and kill these guys!" You might have to watch this film several times to grasp the full genius of V's plan to make the revolution possible. It's the best plan I've ever seen in a movie and It never cesses to amaze me to see it all come together. The film is quite different from the book but I think they're positive differences, They replaced certain aspects of the book with various issues that people were concerned with at the beginning of the Iraq war. So by now it's also a time capsule of the fears and events on people's minds at the time. Most dystopian films I've heard of seem only to be interested in the genre as a backdrop for the story. A reason to create a truly hateful regime so you will cheer when the heroic resistance brings it down. This film is the the good kind of dystopia. The kind that acts as a cautionary tale of what our society might become if we let it. There are only 2 problems I have with this film. Often films have info dumps or put certain details centre stage, giving away they'll be important later, This film gradually trickles in details about this world's history instead. Which is better then a forced info dump but they take it a little too far. The word Norsefire is mentioned only twice and if you cough you'd miss it. It's hard to get a full picture of this world without the novel but since the novel and film are different this could lead to confusion. The second is their portrayal of Guy Fawkes. Fawkes was a real life person who, with his confederates, tried to kill the English government and replace it with a new order that would have been much worse. But since then he's been wrongfully portrayed as a kind of heroic failed revolutionary. It's this portrayal the film uses as Fawkes is the inspiration for V, who calls him a great citizen who fought for "fairness, justice and freedom." Ironically Fawkes was more like the film's villain then V. But aside from that, this is a truly great film. It has a deep mystery that steadily unfolds to a satisfying resolution, character arcs and while the action is relatively limited, you'll remember it. But above everything else, it's a meditation on fear, power, manipulation and resilience. A true dystopian movie BUT one that has a positive and uplifting message. That while humans can fall prey to fear, they can also rise above it. But what really amazing about this film it ended up being a mirror of reality. It was made in the 2006 and is set in the 2020s. Compare it to how the real 2020s turned out and you may see some parallels.
