V for Vendetta (2006)

On paper, I should have enjoyed this movie. In reality, it could not keep my attention. I can appreciate the themes of a totalitarian government and its effect on people who don’t conform to the norms. It was just presented in a way that only grabbed my attention during fight scenes. I didn’t enjoy this watch but there is definitely an audience for a vigilante trying to disrupt a totalitarian government.
