We have an IMAX here in Omaha but they won't show any movies on it.

...but let's get back to the movie.

I saw it today (not in IMAX) and enjoyed it very much. For a Wachowski movie, it was surprisingly lean on the special effects (other than pyrotechnics) and the one scene that used the "Matrix" effect used it sparingly.

My biggest complaint is that whenever I hear Hugo Weaving's voice I expect him to throw in a "Mr. Anderson" here and there. (The same thing happened in the Lord of the Rings movies, too.)

Now, pardon me while I put on a mask and stand outside the White House....

I actually didn't think Hugo sounded like Mr. Anderson as V. He had enough accent and tone change in his voice to make him not sound like it. I dunno, I thought he did a very good job as V and not making it sound "like" Hugo as much.

Also, The Wachowski brothers just wrote the screenplay, so, I don't know if they had a lot to do with the special effects.

Wow.
