film review 2 - V for Vendetta

v for vendetta

The film was very interesting and had many interesting themes and styles throughout.
The movie was set in the future and addressed problems that London is set to face. The themes in the film covered riots and a theme of Germany when Hitler was in power, where the government held all the power and controlled the people.
The film had a very interesting theme throughout where the important people were highlighted or the people carrying out the important messages from the film to the audience. Some examples of this is when the government held their meetings the people talking would be illuminated by a bright light whilst everything else was blacked out, this could be referenced to reality shows. Also one of the main characters read out important m,messages via a news reports that were played as other important characters were being introduced and ending, its as if he was watching the story unfold as he was part of the cycle.
The main characters costume was dark and is face was always masked by a Guy Fawkes mask or by showing him silhouetted in the distance when showing his past story leading up to the events in the movie.
The movie was made back in 2006 but the theme of the riots came true last year in 2011 with the London riots.
