Alan Moore has shown no support and when he was quoted as showing support he went out of his way to say he isn't. As with every other Alan Moore book tunred into movie I expect it to be ruined by changes. That being said the Matrix guys could still make it a decent film. I just don't expect it to be the V For Vendetta I know and love.

Yea, ALan wants his name OFF EVERYTHING he doesn't own...he's really pissed at DC. The matrix guys first had a script that was pretty much word for word with the comic..then changes happen. I dont wanna spoil anything but...how we meet Mrs Hammond and what she does is WAY WAY different from the book..but i have to see this movie.

I'm not expecting to hate it. I just won't re-read the comic before I watch. That way if it sucks I can just come home and read it.

What the hell kind of movie features a "hero" that blows up London?

How about we watch it instead of judge it immediately?
Overall, decent move. Very overhyped & the middle of th emovie dragged like a bad leg on a cripple.

Well the book was written during the time that American's hated the Brits, so to answer your question; An American Movie with an American Hero.
-
WOW. THEY CHANGED ALMOST EVERYTHING. I didn't even recognize it...the TV speach from the Book is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better. They made V into too much of a pussy in this movie. lol
But Overall, as a movie, it was good...but damn..could've been A LOT better.

How is killing and destroying a fascist government not be heroic?
-
is it worth going to see??
-
is it worth going to see??
It's an interesting story, but not very much action. Alot less action than the Matrix trilogy. If you're cool with that, then see it.
-
I liked it a lot

I liked it. Good flick.
-
im going to check this movie out tomorrow.

Another Alan Moore repsonse;
Moore: "I Want Nothing To Do with 'Vendetta' Film"
V For Vendetta creator Alan Moore is desperate to be disassociated from the screen adaptation of his classic comic strip - and is begging the producers not to credit him for his work. The cartoonist, who also conceived From Hell and The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen, hates seeing his work diluted by movie-makers, and refuses to put his name to the result. He says, "I want them to say, 'We're not going to give you any money for your work, you're not going to get any credit for it and we're not going to put your name on it.' To see a line of dialogue or a character that I have poured that much emotional involvement into, to see them casually travestied and watered down and distorted... it's kind of painful. It's much better just to avoid them altogether."

Movie of the year for me so far. This wasn't a straight up action movie, this movie had more depth to it than the average action movie so maybe thats why some of you got bored. I was really into it and loved it.
-
Yeah, Real Dope Movie.
-
I thought the news reports they had on were kinda interesting, like the one with the Civil War 2 going on in the U.S.. Does anyone know what year this movie was supossed to take place?
-
Saw it yesterday for the first time, very dope movie. Don't know why I didn't see this before now.

-
One of the best movies released this decade, idiots went into it thinking it was a simple action movie, which it isn't.
-
This was an excellent movie although my interest in reading the book has been sparked now as I wonder what aspects have been diluted
