V for Vendetta, first impressions

The bravest damn thing Hollywood's made in years. Not perfect, but then neither was the source material. It's a fable, an allegory, a hand at the back of your head making you see a slightly warped version of the world we live in now and dare call civilized.

And if you think the conservative screechers got their knickers in a twist over gay cowboys, just you wait until they get a load of that violent jester V.

Go see it when it invades the cinema near you.

More tomorrow.
