V for Vendetta (8.0)

I kind of hesitated on that one. On one hand I really enjoyed it, nice visuals, interesting “what if” world and a fun main character but on the other hand, it could have used being longer or shorter.

Seems like the Wachowskis tried to fit in a lot of the Moore mythology but didn’t glue it all together properly, they should have tried for less (although, not having read the original I can’t say if that’s really doable) or pushed for longer, I’m sure they have the pull and it’s not like 132 minutes is insanely long already. Might just be the execution though, I’m not good at that stuff so I can’t tell.

So, I enjoyed it but there were some gaps but there was also Nathalie so an 8 it is.
