Vendetta online review 2014 movie#
The movie V for Vendetta introduced a number of elements not in the book - not least the theme of a purposefully unleashed virus used for political gain - which are now, more than ever, strikingly topical. Elusive anarchist V seeks to break the system, and also get revenge on the people who made him what he is, eliciting them help of a young girl called Evie, whom V hopes will become his protege as he nears the final phases of his master plan. Set in the future, a mysterious virus has devastated the United Kingdom, leaving it open for the iron fist of a Neofascist regime to put a stranglehold on the country, reverting to a police state where sexuality and race determines your fate. Indeed, it is arguably even more prescient than the book when considering the current Covid/Trump landscape. Probably second in line is the Wachowski's adaptation of his 1988 work V for Vendetta, which Moore has - rather characteristically - disavowed, but which nonetheless represents a solid interpretation refashioned to suit the then-Bush Administration (as opposed to the Thatcherite critique the books levelled).

Indeed, somewhat ironically given his lack of involvement, Lindelhof's recent HBO Watchmen TV series is probably a contender for one of the best Moore adaptations despite not being based on a Moore story.

The works of Alan Moore have seldom been well rendered in the Big Screen live action realm, with perhaps the best adaptation being Zack Snyder's Watchmen, and the worst Stephen Norrington's The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Launched in time for the fireworks - Election or otherwise - the Wachowskis' follow-up to The Matrix trilogy, an adaptation of Alan Moore's seminal, politically-infused dystopian thriller, earns an impressive native 4K release with Atmos.
