V for Vendetta is an allegory. It is rather apparent the Wachowski Brothers wanted to make a critique of George W Bush's post 9/11 USA.
The vehicle they used was Alan Moore's graphic novel with the setting a futuristic and fascist Britain.
The film that inspired Anonymous. We have a masked anarchist voiced by Hugo Weaving exacting revenge on John Hurt's High Chancellor whilst trying to save Natalie Portman from the secret police. She later becomes an ally.
V for Vendetta deals with issues relating to a repressive state. Totalitarianism, homophobia, Islamophobia and terrorism. The film with its controversial themes has attracted both criticism and praise, although author of the graphic novel Alan Moore is unhappy with the adaptation.
The acting from the cast is excellent. Portman, Weaving, Rea, Hurt and especially Roger Allam all excel.
It's a brave and a cutting edge film packed with entertainment values and also thought inspiring. A real must see.
