V for Vendetta

I have finally watched the film V for Vendetta, which stars Natalie Portman and Hugo Weaving. The film is one of the best movies I have seen in a while, and probably one of the deepest ones, too. The movie is set in a futuristic London where a fascist/Orwellian government rules. Meanwhile, America is in the verge of civil war, which the British government uses to control the people with fear of that happening with them. The government is extremely religious, banning the Koran, homosexuality, and censoring all media. One day, a terrorist named V begins to fight the government using a Guy Fawkes mask to hide his identity. Upon rescuing a girl named Evey from the police, he beliefs he found a worthy ally to fight the government. I think this movie has some great acting, story telling, and a deep message of freedom and anarchy. We can probably relate this to many current issues, such as the Egyptian coups de ta earlier this year.  This makes V for Vendetta deserve a 9/10, and becoming one of my favorite movies. SPOILER My favorite part in the movie is at the end when parliament finally exploded and there is a crowd wearing Guy Fawkes masks realizing they finally overthrew the government.

Here's the movie poster and you should definitely watch it if you get a chance.
