V For Vendetta

vendetta.jpgI saw this movie today and liked it. It seemed to have a little more intelligence than your average movie you see these days. It had a lot of dialog and I miss that in movies. You actually have to pay attention to figure out what is going on. There was a little too much fighting that reminded me of The Matrix when I was watching it. Lo and behold, I get to the credits and find that it is by the same brothers that created The Matrix. I find it interesting that the story is based on a comic book series. The story is definitely not for kids! Comic books have apparently become very adult since the days of Archie! I was exceptionally delighted by its positive portrayal of gay characters...this was an unexpected bonus.
