Although based on a comic book, it isn’t as heavily stylized as a superhero movie. Its score and production family fun design, both rich and inviting, are heightened without suggesting that this near-future London is an outright fantasy, though the family fun new government, a restrictive state led by John Hurt’s Sutler, is draped in some awfully Nazi-ish iconography. If the film’s look and feel refuse to flee from the real world, its dialogue takes every chance to connect to it. family fun We are told about the recent past, that “America’s war grew worse and worse, and eventually came to London.” Hot-button terms like “rendition” are sprinkled about; dissidents are handled as in a third-world dictatorship; and our hero (who calls himself V) lectures citizens who have surrendered their liberties to a government that promised to protect them from terrorism. As V, Hugo Weaving has the unenviable task of playing the entire film behind an immobile mask.
