V for Vendetta

So I saw V this weekend, and I must say that it did live up to the hype. I'm really happy when there is a lot of criticism about a movie and its actually good. An especially harsh one came from the Village Voice, saying that the film was "tasteless". I whole-heartedly disagree, and think that this is exactly type of film that needs to be made; as we see our civil liberties disintegrating through our fingers. I think that it really takes guts to make a film that a lot of people might hate, but I say well done.
