Movie Classics brings you some of the best movies to grace the screen: Rated R, Run time: 2 hr. 25 min Genre: Drama, Action & Adventure, Mystery & Suspense, Science Fiction & Fantasy Release Date: Mar 17, 2006 Plot: the movie takes place in Britain, in a time when corruption and no freedoms and liberties exist. A corrupt and abusive totalitarian government has risen to complete power, headed by a chancellor whose rise to power is questionable. During a threatening run in with the secret police, an unassuming young woman named Evey is rescued by a vigilante. V embodies the principles of rebellion from an authoritarian state, donning a mask of vilified would-be terrorist of British history Guy Fawkes and leading a revolution sparked by assassination and destruction. Evey becomes his unlikely ally, newly aware of the cruelty of her own society and her role in it. Verdict: Another great movie by the Wachowksi Brothers based on a novel by Alan Moore. Visually stunning and thought-provoking, V for Vendettas political pronouncements may rile some, but its story and impressive set pieces will nevertheless entertain. Cast: Natalie Portman (Evey), Stephen Rea (Finch ),Stephen Fry (Deitrich ), John Hurt (Adam Sutler ),Tim Pigott-Smith (Creedy ). Directed By: James McTeigue Written By: Andy Wachowski, Larry Wachowski US Box Office:$70.5M Warner Bros. Pictures shemmugisha@gmail.com
