V is very well spoken, particularly in his use of words beginning wth, v. I shan’t say anything about the subject matter as its interpreation will vary, and I’m not familiar with the original material (a comic I presume) but the plot has similarities to Ultraviolet (the 2006 movie, not the excellent 1998 British Vampire mini-series). I did find it a somewhat pertinent if excessive reminder of the times we’re in, although I was quite taken aback at its portayal of a potential future England. A brave and well executed role from Natalie Portman (although her accent burbled on occasion), and I enjoyed all the other cast members except Ben Miles who as I’m a big fan of Coupling just seemed out of place (he fitted Imagine Me & You perfectly though). The overall effect was of an English police drama within a fantasy sociological background. I found it very satisfying.

Incidentally there’s a cool mix of speeches and Bollywood samples over the credits which is Bkab by Ethan Stoller. I was also amused to see credits for Website Designer and Website Content Producer.
