The visuals can be striking at times but oddly basic at others, almost verging on TV movie standards.Ī clever film where the main (anti) hero is more a symbol of the people, the movement and less of an individual person with fancy fighting moves. In short this is very much your 'Batman' type affair accept it has a more simple minimalistic feel or approach, remember its set in merry old England and not a forest of gothic skyscrapers. The dark grey tones, dark alleyways, dark rooftops, the darkly cloaked anti hero, shadows galore and the much required dark anti hero logo that will eventually Adorn most badly lit vicinities. Its visuals that do bring this film to life like many other similar films. Black and red are the strong piercing colours of the 'Norsefire party', cliched but effective, much like their whole exterior appearance really but lets not forget this is a graphic novel adaptation where visuals are everything. In fact the whole design and look of the fascist party is really well done with clear references/influences from history in certain scenes of addressing the nation.

Hurt's performance is pretty much limited to simply being on a large TV screen/monitor, but the way he barks out orders in a menacing torrent to his subordinates is really a joy to watch. Who better to use for the fascist regime leader than the main lead for the film adaptation of the Orwell novel 'Nineteen Eighty-Four', John Hurt. She spends the whole time in this film looking distraught with her mouth hanging open and gasping for air! its quite infuriating. The less said about Portman the better frankly, she is becoming more and more annoying as she grows older. Its quite strange to actually think that he was rather dashing even though his face is hidden behind that mask, you tend to forget he's wearing a mask really, its a good looking mask.

He played the character in full as we know but his polite charming well spoken mannerisms really sold the whole anti hero character and gave him this endearing Errol Flynn like persona.

Why would someone in the 2030's idolise and copy a 16th Century criminal, despite his treasonous act which isn't actually much to celebrate really.Īnyway I can't deny that Weaving's smooth charismatic tones were prefect for the voice of 'V'. I understand the notion of using the terrorist act of blowing up Parliament as brilliant symbol/sign of rebellion against the dictatorship that governs this universes UK, but why the need to dress up like Guy Fawkes complete with silly period wig and quaint facial mask?. What I have always found weird about this graphic novel creation is the obsession with Guy Fawkes. The plot is strange for sure, set in the future of the 2030's, its all about a totalitarian run UK and a certain freedom fighter (with the noted Guy Fawkes fetish) who uses the old 16th Century attempted terrorist act as his main influence for his own terror attacks.of freedom.Ī curious blend of fascism set against anarchy with an all American style matinée serial/pulp magazine hero in the middle. kind of a kinky dressing up as Guy Fawkes fetish thing going on. There's a definite Guy Fawkes motive running through this film isn't there, didn't notice at first (yes I'm being sarcastic). Natalie Portman's accent falls off at times, but the lispiness seems at least consistent, and her performance throughout is every bit as good as her Oscar-winning one, though I do think she plays too coy during her 'confession' with Father Lilliman so that she seems to be toying with him to aid in V's plan instead of seeking asylum for herself. Ben Miles of 'Coupling' is also quite high of power and forehead. Stephen Rea's yammy face and the smallest twitch of his lips convey Inspector Finch's every disguised exasperation at the tyrannical government he's tasked to protect, and this time around, I was truly invested in his character arc. I must also give kudos to the impressive cadre of British thespians that I was unfamiliar with before. I love the brilliantly paced and lovingly lit second act when Evey is taken prisoner and we learn Valerie's heartbreaking story. I love Dario Marianelli's soaring arpeggios and was surprised that I hadn't taken notice of him until 'Atonement' in 2007. I love the high angle shots in the onyx, low-lit war room, with all those contemptuous whites of eyes staring up at the oppressive video feed of our corn-grilled chancellor.

In 2005, I was blissfully enthralled by Natalie Portman in her follicular heyday, so I didn't quite appreciate the philosophical core of this visually and aurally stunning film.
