A brilliant movie full of action.

Did it already open and if so, then I'm assuming then it was pretty good then? I want to see it.

Not yet. In the US it comes out this Friday (the 17th).

A review I watched said it was ridiculous. It said they played on loads of English stereotypes of people sitting around with bone china and scones.

I just saw it today. Pretty good. Worth seeing.

I have no interest in seeing a movie that glorifies terrorism and has so many attacking references to the US. So I won't be seeing it.

IntrepidIsMe · **Sat Mar 18, 2006 3:21 pm**

"Attacking references" to the US? Hardly. The Boston Tea Party was an act of terrorism. Shameful, no?

I saw this last night, and it was actually a lot better than I thought it would be. While I was watching it I remember thinking that many of the parts seemed cliche, but overall it wasn't bad.

And I didn't see any English stereotypes. I suppose that that might be a matter of perspective, but I didn't really notice anything in particular. No tea/scones/or bone china. But who doesn't like bone china?

/\ well, I guess not then. Stupid channel 5! You've tricked me for the last time!!!

I like scones....

They didn't go around killing innocents and stuff. This guy is a terrorist against a totalitarian regime, plain and simple. However, that doesn't change the fact that he's a terrorist--and it's glorifying terrorism. Plus they have Abu Graihb references and all sorts of attacking references to the US, which I don't particularly like.
I will not be seeing this movie, end of story. Like it if you want. More power to you. I won't be seeing it.

Okay, sorry if I upset/offended you. But one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. The heros in the star wars trilogy were terroists and they killed innocent storm troopers. But, I'm moving on.

I saw a poster for this movie, and it's got a crowd of people wearing masks on it. Why are they all wearing that freaky mask?

Republican_Man · **Sat Mar 18, 2006 8:21 pm**

Uh...no, they weren't terrorists. They were rebels, which is different from terrorism. They actually faught battles--they didn't carry out terrorist activities.
Difference. Context.

Corrections!!!!!1

The movie was about a man who hated his tolitarian government for what they did to him so he goes and takes revenge on them. In the movie he is labeled as a terrorist however he is more of a man standing up against the evil and the evil calling him terrorist. He is clearly not a terrorist he was just a man smart enough and strong enough to take on his evil government. In other words he is a Freedom Fighter and not a terrorist.

Because not all so called Freedom Fighters are terrorist.

The movie does not glorify terrorism. I have seen the movie and unless you see it for yourself you will never understand the story.

Republican_Man · **Sat Mar 18, 2006 8:29 pm**

There is a difference between being a freedom fighter and carrying out acts of terrorism. Fact is, he's a terrorist. He may be fighting for freedom, I suppose, but it doesn't change the fact that he's a terrorist.
I know everything that you're telling me--and more. He is a terrorist, plain and simple. I know that not all freedom fighters are terrorists, and maybe his intentions are good, but does that change the fact that he's a terrorist? No, it does not.

RM, If you haven't even seen the movie then you have no right to debate it with others who have already seen it.

I have seen it, and V is in no way a Terrorist. He is no more a terrorist then The colonists were during the Revolutionary War.

Lord Borg · **Sat Mar 18, 2006 10:21 pm**

I want to see it, looks good, I noticed Hugo Weaving is in it, He did good in the LotR trilogy and the Matrix Trilogy so...

Perhaps RM, but you can't always know what your talking about when your sources are biased Reviews of movies, I never get into movie arguments with out seeing the film first.

I wasn't getting into a political debate here

But I'm done speaking here any longer, because apparently my opinion is not valid, so I'm done.

I haven't seen it yet, but I do want to. Agent Smith is V!

"Mr. Totalitarian government. We've missed you..."

I did hear that this movie was somewhat contreversial. I'll have to see it to judge first.

Valathous · **Sun Mar 19, 2006 1:41 am**

I haven't seen it yet but it's #1 on my list of movies to see at the moment. It looks really good.

Andy, not only does it have "Agent Smith" but the movie is done by the "Wachowski Brothers" A.K.A. the creators of "The Matrix".

I like the tag-line: "Remember, remember, the 5th of November."

I wanna see the movie so bad! I heard that it was pretty good. Maybe this movie will be a lot better than the last Matrix movie.
