V for Vendetta

So Ross and I saw the movie this weekend and we really liked it. I know a lot of people probably went to it only to see Natalie Portman get her head shaved, or because the Wachowski Brothers were involved, but it's the story that made this movie good.

I think it's good to make a fiction movie that makes people think about what is happening in the world today. Some can then chock it up to the fact that it is a fake movie and would never come true. Others will say they agree that it could happen. Either way, political stances can be made without people being offended by others' points of views. It's not forcing anyone to change their views. The movie just wants people to open their eyes to the possibilities. If that changes some one's mind, then that is fine.


So if you have not seen it, remember the following:

1> No, it's not another Matrix
2> Yes, there is a lot of dialogue
3> Yes, it will go over some people's heads

It's a good movie, so go see it!
