Based on the Vertigo DC Comics series, V for Vendetta is a coming-of-age film for the Wachowski Brothers’ writing and production tandem. Noted for their highly-touted and successful Matrix films, the Wachowskis finally give us more coherent and tighter screenplay-writing with V for Vendetta. While high on gloss and "look," I found the Matrix films wanting in terms of story and plot/character development.

                    [Summary] => My first complaint about Matrix Revolutions – the long-awaited end to the Wachowski Brothers’ sci-fi trilogy – is those sweaters. The people of underground Zion, bravely battling evil machines that control the Matrix, have been wearing the same ratty, threadbare sweaters for two movies now. They have the technology to build an underground city, pilot ships, create a defense force of motion-controlled robots, but nobody can hammer together a decent loom? When are the rebels going to get some new duds?

Quite an unusual stir did the wily Wanchowski brothers trigger on the movie world four years ago with the release of their incisively innovative sci-fi thriller Matrix.

Its aesthetic vision of a dark dystopia is like no other previously seen. Its virtual reality befuddles its superhero in addition to his unexpected awareness of man’s subservience to machines.
