The film 'V for Vendetta' is set in the near future; it starts off
with the US being in turmoil state due to a virus, which killed a lot of
Americans. Britain is lead by a dictator (John Hunt), Britain remains the only
stable country. It is being lead by the fascist Norsefire party, which is known
simply as 'the party’. All of the worlds "undesirable" people like Muslims,
homosexuals and immigrants were all placed in concentration camps. On the 5th
of November, Guy Fawkes Night, Natalie Portman's character, Evey Hammond, was
rescued by a Guy Fakes-masked man who calls himself V. Evey Hammond works for
the British Television Network (BTN) when she was out past her curfew and
nearly got raped by members of the 'finger men' secret police, this is when she
was saved by V. When V got her he lead her to a rooftop to watch the
destruction he caused of the 'Old Bailey' criminal building, accompanied by
fireworks. An inspector call Finch (Stephen Rea)is given the task of looking at
all of V's work. V's main purpose is to try and get British people to overrule
the Government and meet him on the 5th of November at the House's of Parliament;
he does this when he takes over a broadcast of the BTN. Evey helps V to get
away after the police try and capture him.
Evey is taken to V's home were she is told
to stay until 5th of November when V promises to blow the House's up, and she
is asked to help kill with him. Later on Evey escapes from V after being
mortified by killings. Evey runs to her boss called Gordon Dietrich, he shows
her this collection of paintings and also tells her that he claims to be a
womaniser, but he really is a homosexual, being well aware that he could be put
in concentration camp. Finch learns that V was part of an experiment being
placed on humans and he was tortured during his time there. Gordon's home gets
raided whilst Evey was trying to escape but got captured. Evey got taken away
to a secret location somewhere, was tortured, got her hair shaved and got
burned. All this torturing was to try and get here to talk about V.
Whilst there Evey was told that if she
didn't give up information about V, then she would be executed, she said she
would rather die that give up locational information about V. Later on we find
that all this was a set up, by V to try and get Evey to concur her fear. Of
course Evey hates V for doing all this torturing, but she realised that she is
now a stronger person and promises V that she will return to him on the 5th of
November. Whilst all this has been happening, Inspector Finch has been trying
to get the true identity of V, and then finds out he was part of a program to
do with bio-weapons in a detention centre.
Once finding out that he was, the 5th of
November was upon us. Thousands of Guy Fawkes masks were spread all round the
city. As promised Evey she returned and meet up with V and then danced
together. V then takes her away from the crowd over to a train full of
explosives that he had been working on for years to take down the Houses of
Parliament. He told Evey that it was her chance to pull the lever to release
the train on the Parliament. V then walks away from her and explains that he
had a deal to keep. He was to kill a Parliament member, Mr Creedy (Tim Smith).
V does eventually kill him but suffered many wounds. He stumbled over to Evey
who is still by the train, and he then died in her arms. Evey then thought the
right thing to do is to put him on the train and pull the lever to destroy the
Parliaments. While doing this Finch finds her. Meanwhile the thousands of men
and women in masks are walking towards the Parliament buildings and soldiers
are forced to stand down. Finch tells Every to move away, but then as she
refuses he puts the gun down he was holding to her and allows her to pull the
lever, and destroys the Houses of Parliament that V always wanted. On being a thriller film I would rate this
5 out of 5. It gives the audience a sense of suspense in areas, which is key in
thriller films, and always has questions that need answering throughout.
