Gosh there's too many to pick one for me personally lol, this movie is just rich with dialogue. But to name a few that I absolutely love... "Beneath this mask there is more than flesh, beneath this mask there is an idea Mr. Creedy. And, Ideas are Bullet Proof." - V "This Country needs more than a building right now, it needs Hope." - Evey "For Three years I had roses, and apologized to no one." - Valerie
"Voila! In view humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the “vox populi” now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a bygone vexation stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin, van guarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it’s my very good honour to meet you and you may call me V."
"We have GUNS- No what you have are bullets, and the hope that when your guns are empty I'm no longer standing, because if I am you'll all be dead before you've reloaded." Brooooooo. Too badass.
I love the meaning in the moment V breaks his mask and weeps. All he wanted was evey, but he wanted her to have what she wanted, and what she wanted was to not be afraid. So he took her, and bullied her, and tortured her, until she wasn't afraid. He did it knowing it would driver her away, that she'd hate him, but he did it anyway, because it was what she wanted. He wanted to show her that, unlike the count of Monte Cristo, he cared more about evey than about what he wanted.
That Guy Fawkes is used by Anonymous to represent everyone. Fun Fact: The domino scene, where V (Hugo Weaving) tips over black and red dominoes to form a giant letter V, involved 22,000 dominoes. It took four professional domino assemblers 200 hours to set it up.
Such a brilliant movie, I absolutely adore it. I say that as a fan of the original Alan Moore graphic novel/comics but I prefer to just treat them as entirely different entities. It takes that original material and crafts it into a very powerful allegory for modern times. I'm scared, but we know what to do, should the time come.
@@RyanCarrington I don't know how much you're into graphic novels/comic books but Alan Moore is a legendary writer. 'V For Vendetta' is one of his earliest works, originally serialized in the British anthology magazine "Warrior" starting in 1982. I remember reading it in the mid-80's. And then when the movie came out in 2005 I was very curious how they would handle it since it was only a few years after 911 and the protagonist is a terrorist. It's definitely interesting how a comic from the 80's became MORE relevant in the 2000's.
At least in the US I think if you take an honest, hard look at DC you realise that the time has long been there. And 1 spark and itll implode if you ask me. I honestly thought Jan 6th might be the start of civil was in the US when I first heard of it.
@@alinac5512 I think this might be what a civil war looks like when you haven't got a history book to tell you what sparked it. More of a long ramp that ends with a jump and landing/crash than an explosion.
This one's quite the gem, that was a rather refreshing rewatch with you. Another layer for this film is having John Hurt playing the opposite end of the spectrum, character-wise, compared to him playing Winston Smith (the everyman having revolutionary dreams) in the film version of 1984; chilling performance.
Every time I hear Hugo Weaving or see him in anything, I absolutely have to say “Mr. Anderson.” I know I’m not alone in this. 😂 But yeah, hood on ya for picking up the “Neo” reference. This is absolutely an underrated movie. Everyone pulls for V in the end.
Same! Haha What's better is that my girlfriends step dad is called Mr Anderson 😂 I don't know how I didn't guess the Wachowski's involvement before the end 😑
Hey Ryan. An irony in this film is actor John Hurt playing Chancellor Sutler in his dystopian world. Because Hurt played the opposite role as victim in a much worse dystopian world in the movie "1984" (1984). @ 31:45 I'm with ya. LOL! Been watching VfV yearly since '06 and never tire of it as it's such a WELL MADE movie, on top of everything else about it. Great reaction, man! If you decide to do "1984" and you like Eurythmics then do the version with their soundtrack. There was controversy over using them instead of Dominic Muldowney's score that was done and largely replaced. His was a more conventional orchestration and having watched both versions I prefer the Eurythmics! ✌️😎
Yeah, I actually need to watch 1984. I know nothing about the soundtrack hoopla haha I'll add it to the list though. This was a brilliant movie. Can't believe I slept on it for so long! As always, thanks for watching ☺️
One of my favorite movies. Just so you know when Evee wakes up in the room of books, every book in the room is banned in some country around the world. Much love and keep on keepin on J.
This movie is so underrated. The scary thing about it is that it becomes more current and more relevant as the years have gone by. Look at the state of democracy today in places such as Poland, Hungary, Brazil, the US. Look at the state of the EU and the UK. Russia, Belarus, and China, Hong Kong. There are powerful and wealthy forces in the world working to destroy truth, science, logic, and our common humanity. This was not the promise of the future. We were supposed to become better, smarter, more egalitarian, and more humane. It looks like books like 1984 and Fahrenheit 451 were closer predictors after all.
The source material criticized thatcherism. The author didn't like that the Wachowskis modified it to criticize Bush II, but I really liked that part. The Punisher is an anarchist written by an author who thinks anarchy is a bad idea. V is an anarchist written by someone who thinks anarchy would be a good idea.
I watched this in theaters as a kid. I didn’t entirely understand the politics of it all. I just loved the action and theatrics. I truly appreciate it now as an adult. I loved your reaction and how you edit in memes! Subscribed ☑️ Cheers from Las Vegas
When this movie first came out, it WAS dystopian. A lot of people didn't like it for the subject matter, thinking that could never happen in their lifetime... oh how wrong they were. Even the parallels at home for me in NY, its gotta bad. We either need V or the saints... Speaking of: you gotta see Boondock Saints if you haven't. Its a favorite of mine.
@@RyanCarrington They divide us with fear and anger. I wish people would realize that there is no conservative/labour or democrat/republican party, it is us against them. The ruling class versus the serfdom class. When We The People get this in our thought process, our time of misery is over. Their time of debauchery and power is over.
I really dont think V would join Trumps Capitol riot gang nor would he try to overthrow governments (outside of your China's and Russia's). The emphasis to empower the people is a strong message, one that could overshadow the fact that 'the people' themselves could be the ones stopping social progress and contribute to cultural oppression. The truth is that the way to hell is paved with good intentions. And there are those who don't even have good intentions.
Hadn't seen this one before. Enjoyed watching along with you and listening to your comments. This movie wasn't at all what I expected either 😱 I like Stephen Fry, watched some of his "Fry and Laurie" show. He was also on the American TV show "Bones". Stephen Rea "Finch"- was in Interview with the Vampire, the one who could read minds. John Hurt "Sutler"-- played John Merrick in The Elephant Man. And of course was in the famous chest burst scene in Alien. 👽
Omg, mi amigo! I thought for sure you'd seen Interview! Glad I didn't give too many spoilers! 😅 ...Have you seen Alien? I shan't assume anything anymore! 😂😂
if you like symmetrical frames then you better start with some Wes Anderson his first movie bottle rocket is great but for a reaction id start with his second Royal Tennenbaums and just watch them all
Weirdly, I'd never heard of Bottle Rocket until a few days ago. I watched a video about Owen Wilson which mentioned it. I'll add both of those to the list. Thanks!
Ha!!!!!! Loved the intro! Dude....I'm the same way as you! I never got around to watching it! I'll check this movie out in the next couple of days or so and finish the reaction. The visuals look really good! PS: Hey, a great dystopian comedy, Terry Gilliam's "Brazil". Also visually incredible, and super brilliant. I wouldn't be surprised if you've seen that one. Ditto Kubrick's "A Clockwork Orange", you must have seen that one already. John Hurt, that guy is always great and he's in everything from "Alien" to "The Elephant Man" (he plays the Elephant Man). He played Caligula in one of the great BBC miniseries, "I, Claudius", that's actually the first thing I think of when I think of John Hurt! He was in the 80s version of "1984". Great actor. Ok....I'll be back after I've seen this movie that I'm embarrassed I haven't seen yet!
Guy Fawkes wasn't hung.... _Only after being tortured on the rack did he reveal the names of his accomplices. Tried and found guilty before a special commission (January 27, 1606), Fawkes was to be executed opposite the Parliament building, but he fell or jumped from the gallows ladder and died as a result of having broken his neck_
You're such a pleasure to watch. I'm sorry if creepy people would ever give you a thumbs down some people are just mean for no reason. You my friend deserve only likes .✌️
Hugo Weaving was also excellent in Cloud Atlas (directed by the Wachowskis along with Tom Tykwer). It didn't do particularly well at the box office but I think it's an amazing movie. I think it's also the one and only time I liked the movie better than the book it's based on.
Did not know Stephen Rea was in this, loved his character Santiago in Interview with the Vampire. Never watched this film but knew it from the Graphic Novel... Enjoyed this
The ringleader was Robert Catesby. Fawkes was just the trigger-man, left behind by the gang to light the fuses. The king was tipped off and Fawkes ratted on the others after some torture. Incidentally, I know "V" as Elrond, king of the elves.......it is Hugo Weaving.
I’m late to the comments but I’ve always been convinced they were called fingermen because they were the darlings of the oppressors pointing out all their friends and neighbors for anything “suspicious” or anti government they may say or do. Or maybe I’m too literal.
our silent concent. this movie is 1 of many movies, that the elite/1% show whats comming and when the films aint protestet against, they take it as an okay, for real pbl
Interesting is that this dystopia was created based on Guy Fawkes, a Catholic soldier who was fighting the protestant tyranny of King James VI and the author of V for Vendetta turned Fawkes into an anarchist fighting against a christian (probably anglican) dictator.
great reaction as always. id love to see you react to Dead Mans Shoes, directed by Shane Meadows who did This is England. Paddy Considine is in it.... fantastic revenge flick
Thank you! I've seen that one! My girlfriend showed it to me not long after we met 😂 Great movie though and would've made for a good reaction! Let me know if you have any other recommendations 🙂
27:2430:43 the last stand domino is like himself, who doesn't belong to new world. The further this stuff with pandemic goes, the crazier world becomes, the more i see this movie became reality
I always saw it more that the last domino is Evie/the future. He can scheme and set up everything else but Evie and the people are the ones who need to shape what happens after. It's not his place to decide where they go once it's all over. As such that domino is out of his control and he leaves it behind for Evie and the people of the country to do with what they will once he is gone.
Right now you don't have a Patreon, and your community is fairly small, so maybe there's an opportunity here to see some movies that other channels haven't done. Nothing against Patreon or big communities, but when the majority rules on votes, the movie choices become homogenized pretty quickly. Here's a handful of recommendations that I would love to see on a reactor's channel: • Blood Simple • Bound • The Insider • Out of Sight • Zero Effect Except for Zero Effect, which is definitely a cult movie, all of these are by major filmmakers (and even the director of Zero Effect went on to make Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story and Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle). One of these is a multiple Oscar nominee. But I just don't think they're popular enough to win if polling is the system by which you choose. I would also recommend, on the truly obscure end of things, the fascinating drama Proof (1991), which also stars Hugo Weaving, playing a blind man who takes photos as a hobby, and enlists Russell Crowe (in one of his first roles) to describe the photos to him.
It was okayishhhh. There were a few occasions where it went weird. I noted one in this video. But there's another bit I refrained from pointing out where she goes a bit northern for a second and sounds like the character Mrs Merton from an old UK show. Other than that though, it was alright 🙂
@@RyanCarrington Yeah, that is pretty much how it goes for Americans doing British accents from what I understand. You guys seem to do our various accents generally pretty well especially our southern accent. I am from the south(south eastern Virginia), but I have a typically light southern American accent.
@@okeefe757 I think we have an advantage because so much of what we watch is from America, so we hear the various American accents so much. personally, I love the Boston accent (although I visited a couple of years ago and was disappointed that not many people really spoke with it) Oh and the Minnesota one. That always gets me 😅 Although they're a bit tricky and I've heard Brits butcher those. Especially Ray Winston in The Departed 😬
Please react on some Indian movies like 3 idiots , PK , Dangal , kumbalangi nights , Bangalore days , Andhadhun , Mathu vadalara , Kaithi , Agent sai srinivasa athreya , Barfi , Asuran , Visaranai ,Drishyam. Please react on at least one of them . You will love them .
With the shit going on in 2021. Petrol prices flying past £1.50 per litre (remember when the country kicked off when it first hit £1 per litre?). Domestic Gas and Electricity prices soaring. Universal Credit Covid payments of £20 per week cut AGAINST all organisations/many segments of the Govt themselves saying Rishi shouldn't - but instead a drop in the limit of 63p down to 55p for WORKERS on U.C (they're £23 a week better off). But strangely NOTHING to help those that either can't work, or on disability U.C (£19 a week worse off).. But fair play to Rishi Sunak 3p off a pint.. Nice.. Annnnd Fuel dudty will be frozen again for another year... (Petrol STILL screaming towards the £1.75 per litre mark)... SO TWO taxes on petrol, Supermarkets, petrol companies, it's REALLY getting to be a racketeering job this with all the profit they're raking in hand over fist... And yet, still no organisation of why? No petitions for the Govt? No Facebooks/Twitter/Instagram etc groups gaining mass popularity?? NHS failing, School kids being failed, Care homes/Elderly care failing, crime up, violence up, malicious evil spreading across our nation... And then "V".... In this movie... Is making more and more sense...... 😒😒😒🇬🇧
It's there. But you won't find it on social media because they hide those discussions and ban those people. Speak to people in person and you'll hear a very story of what people think.
@@mattizie91 it's ridiculous, it's getting to the point where the joys of having a '2nd' vehicle for pleasure... ie a motorbike, ain't happening at the moment... 😒😒
Can you please react to 👉the lady of heaven trailer? ( The movie will be in AMC theaters by the 10th of December in the US and it is expected to have a worldwide release in various countries shortly after ) 😊
It's amazing how much this movie predicted. But it went the other way around the "modern liberal" establishment is totalitarian instead of the "modern conservative" movement.
In the UK this is pretty bang on. Conservative gov has been in power for 11 years and in that time poverty has shot through the roof. Charity Food banks are the norm, the NHS is being dismantled and handed to private companies which charge back at astronomical rates, tax payer money often ends up in the hands of billionaires with kickbacks to politicians who are affiliated. Corruption is rife here and it's often not even hidden. It's all a farce. We are basically Russia.
Well, the ruling class can be disguised as either/or. It's whatever works for the establishment, get as many braindead pawns to do your bidding and keep the serfs fighting each other.
It continues to surprise me how these reactions show up on TH-cam and it’s almost as if they don’t actually watch the movie or just ignore the movie while they talk and there are just so many clues in the dialogue and visuals that they miss or ignore,? Or perhaps the joke they are trying to make is more important that the film. I think I might be on to something there.
This movie has some excellent dialogue! What's your favourite quote?
“People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.”
Gosh there's too many to pick one for me personally lol, this movie is just rich with dialogue. But to name a few that I absolutely love...

Levver! Just say Leever.The language was invented here.
Such a visually and phonetically pleasing movie
Agreed!
Great movie, great reaction. I recommend the graphic novel, if that's something you're into.
Yeah, I might have to!
Prophetic film.
I’m late to the comments but I’ve always been convinced they were called fingermen because they were the darlings of the oppressors pointing out all their friends and neighbors for anything “suspicious” or anti government they may say or do. Or maybe I’m too literal.
our silent concent. this movie is 1 of many movies, that the elite/1% show whats comming and when the films aint protestet against, they take it as an okay, for real pbl
You are correct
Interesting is that this dystopia was created based on Guy Fawkes, a Catholic soldier who was fighting the protestant tyranny of King James VI and the author of V for Vendetta turned Fawkes into an anarchist fighting against a christian (probably anglican) dictator.
We ALL need one of those masks... For next year :|
"is that Agent Smith?"
No it's Elrond.
I'm so surprised nobody else has said this! 😂
Did you already see Natalie Portman in Leon (1994) a.k.a. The Professional?! 🥰👌🏼✌🏼
Not yet!
Been meaning to watch that for a long time. Maybe this month for the channel? 🤔
@@RyanCarrington Oh yeah, that would be great and i promise you, you won't be disappointed! 😁✌🏼
Oy bruv. Seen this recently. Still holds up.
Definitely!
SHEEEESH!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The first time I watched the story of the roses and the lesbian couple, I was completely emotionally drained 😢
Well… liking it is one thing…. Doing someting is the test…..
@ 17:55 Stephen Fry egg.
Lmao I am with you 😂
May your views and likes always be equal.
Very good movie
great reaction as always. id love to see you react to Dead Mans Shoes, directed by Shane Meadows who did This is England. Paddy Considine is in it.... fantastic revenge flick
Thank you!
I've seen that one! My girlfriend showed it to me not long after we met 😂
Great movie though and would've made for a good reaction!
Let me know if you have any other recommendations 🙂
@@RyanCarrington shes def a keeper. Lol. Badass man
@@RyanCarrington i got one for you... Freeway, starring Reese Witherspoon and Keifer Sutherland.....
27:24 30:43 the last stand domino is like himself, who doesn't belong to new world.
The further this stuff with pandemic goes, the crazier world becomes, the more i see this movie became reality
I always saw it more that the last domino is Evie/the future. He can scheme and set up everything else but Evie and the people are the ones who need to shape what happens after. It's not his place to decide where they go once it's all over. As such that domino is out of his control and he leaves it behind for Evie and the people of the country to do with what they will once he is gone.
@@CeliriaRose Nice, very good point
Classic Guy. Scamps 😂🤣
😂😅
The only problem with this movie today is that every anti-mask Karen and Ken think they’re V.
The irony of this statement astounds.
@@BigJohnLXV I’m really sorry you’re being asked to care about your community, being part of society is so terrible.

it's a shame that Alan Moore, the writer of the original comic story, has disowned the film, but I love it!
Yeah, I watched some videos on here after the movie which explained loads of this. It's a shame because the movie was brilliant.
Please consider THE THIRTEENTH WARRIOR with Antonio Banderas and Omar Sharif. Thank you
I second this, definitely
@@arisucheddar3097 thank you. No one is watching this amazing film
🤙
Just watch the USA, and you can watch the movie in real time. Speaking as a American.
Right now you don't have a Patreon, and your community is fairly small, so maybe there's an opportunity here to see some movies that other channels haven't done. Nothing against Patreon or big communities, but when the majority rules on votes, the movie choices become homogenized pretty quickly.
Here's a handful of recommendations that I would love to see on a reactor's channel:
• Blood Simple
• Bound
• The Insider
• Out of Sight
• Zero Effect
Except for Zero Effect, which is definitely a cult movie, all of these are by major filmmakers (and even the director of Zero Effect went on to make Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story and Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle). One of these is a multiple Oscar nominee. But I just don't think they're popular enough to win if polling is the system by which you choose.
I would also recommend, on the truly obscure end of things, the fascinating drama Proof (1991), which also stars Hugo Weaving, playing a blind man who takes photos as a hobby, and enlists Russell Crowe (in one of his first roles) to describe the photos to him.
What did you think of Natalie Portman's British accent?
It was okayishhhh.
There were a few occasions where it went weird. I noted one in this video. But there's another bit I refrained from pointing out where she goes a bit northern for a second and sounds like the character Mrs Merton from an old UK show. Other than that though, it was alright 🙂
@@RyanCarrington Yeah, that is pretty much how it goes for Americans doing British accents from what I understand. You guys seem to do our various accents generally pretty well especially our southern accent. I am from the south(south eastern Virginia), but I have a typically light southern American accent.
@@okeefe757 I think we have an advantage because so much of what we watch is from America, so we hear the various American accents so much.
personally, I love the Boston accent (although I visited a couple of years ago and was disappointed that not many people really spoke with it)
Oh and the Minnesota one. That always gets me 😅
Although they're a bit tricky and I've heard Brits butcher those. Especially Ray Winston in The Departed 😬
Thanks for the video!! See you later;! Stay safe.😉
Thanks for watching 🤙
Please react on some Indian movies like 3 idiots , PK , Dangal , kumbalangi nights , Bangalore days , Andhadhun , Mathu vadalara , Kaithi , Agent sai srinivasa athreya , Barfi , Asuran , Visaranai ,Drishyam. Please react on at least one of them . You will love them .
Please react to Ninja Assassin!
This was done by the siblings who made The Matrix movies.
I can't believe I didn't get that until the end when I saw the credits. There's similar dialogue and shots to The Matrix 😑
problem with hair symmetry much?
With the shit going on in 2021. Petrol prices flying past £1.50 per litre (remember when the country kicked off when it first hit £1 per litre?). Domestic Gas and Electricity prices soaring. Universal Credit Covid payments of £20 per week cut AGAINST all organisations/many segments of the Govt themselves saying Rishi shouldn't - but instead a drop in the limit of 63p down to 55p for WORKERS on U.C (they're £23 a week better off). But strangely NOTHING to help those that either can't work, or on disability U.C (£19 a week worse off).. But fair play to Rishi Sunak 3p off a pint.. Nice.. Annnnd Fuel dudty will be frozen again for another year... (Petrol STILL screaming towards the £1.75 per litre mark)... SO TWO taxes on petrol, Supermarkets, petrol companies, it's REALLY getting to be a racketeering job this with all the profit they're raking in hand over fist...
And yet, still no organisation of why? No petitions for the Govt? No Facebooks/Twitter/Instagram etc groups gaining mass popularity??
NHS failing, School kids being failed, Care homes/Elderly care failing, crime up, violence up, malicious evil spreading across our nation...
And then "V".... In this movie... Is making more and more sense...... 😒😒😒🇬🇧
It's there. But you won't find it on social media because they hide those discussions and ban those people.
Speak to people in person and you'll hear a very story of what people think.
@@mattizie91 it's ridiculous, it's getting to the point where the joys of having a '2nd' vehicle for pleasure... ie a motorbike, ain't happening at the moment... 😒😒
"Is this a comic cook?" Smh..SMH... Alan Moore roiling in his casquet
Can you please react to 👉the lady of heaven trailer? ( The movie will be in AMC theaters by the 10th of December in the US and it is expected to have a worldwide release in various countries shortly after ) 😊
It's amazing how much this movie predicted. But it went the other way around the "modern liberal" establishment is totalitarian instead of the "modern conservative" movement.
In the UK this is pretty bang on. Conservative gov has been in power for 11 years and in that time poverty has shot through the roof. Charity Food banks are the norm, the NHS is being dismantled and handed to private companies which charge back at astronomical rates, tax payer money often ends up in the hands of billionaires with kickbacks to politicians who are affiliated.
Corruption is rife here and it's often not even hidden. It's all a farce. We are basically Russia.
Well, the ruling class can be disguised as either/or. It's whatever works for the establishment, get as many braindead pawns to do your bidding and keep the serfs fighting each other.
@@RyanCarrington Conservative is a relative term. The UK gov is far from limited in scope.
It continues to surprise me how these reactions show up on TH-cam and it’s almost as if they don’t actually watch the movie or just ignore the movie while they talk and there are just so many clues in the dialogue and visuals that they miss or ignore,? Or perhaps the joke they are trying to make is more important that the film. I think I might be on to something there.
So hope the down thumbs remain squarely at five.
We’re nearly there but the sides are flipped. 🫢
