V for Vendetta

The storyline, like most Wachowski brother's films, and most films based on graphic novels, was mediocre. It attempted, but failed to hold a candle to Orwell's 1984. However I'm glad to see storys like this in pop culture. And I'm very surprised that with the 9-11 happenings so recently chafed that a movie like this which glorifies terrorism was successfully produced. I think that all citizens (well-read or not) should be introduced to the idea that governments are dangerous when they try to become god.

From a production stand-point, I think it is excellent. The visual story that was told was quite good. The casting and make up did an excellent job of portraying uglified oppressed british people on tv and in pubs.
