Disagreement is acceptable. We're only talking about opinions, after all.

I finally got around to watching this movie. It was entertaining, but not an "awesome" movie in my book. I loved the symbolism, and whole anti-government theme, with ties into Nazism, etc... All very good. Hugo does a great job as V, but I think that V could have been better. It really takes some outstanding efforts to pull off a character that is masked 100% of the time in the movie (at least that we see). It was done well, but not great in that aspect.
This is where the comic has the advantage. It is snapshots, not live action, where the comic doesn't show animation, and a still, non-moving mask can be done. In a movie, it is extremely difficult.
Now, I don't want to sound all negative. As I said, it was very entertaining, and I think that it is worth a look. The mask is a must have for this character, but again, in a movie, that is just hard to pull off, but HAS to be there in order to fulfill V's persona.
