EP003 - V for Vendetta

Welcome to Chris & Chris Talk Movies. In this podcast, life-long friends Chris Ferry and Chris Huddleston discuss Sci Fi movies (sometimes the best Sci Fi movies, sometimes not), horror movies (occasionally some of the all time best horror movies…often…not), a few of the very best action movies (I think you see where we’re going with this), and genre films from their childhood and beyond in this laid-back, rambling, but inviting series!

Rated PG for occasional mature language and alcohol consumption.

In this this week's episode we cover 'V for Vendetta', the film adaptation of Alan Moore's widely acclaimed V for Vendetta comic. The cast of V for Vendetta features several heavy hitters including Natalie Portman and Hugo Weaving. Produced by the Wachowski Brothers (of The Matrix movies fame) and directed by James McTeigue (who did second unit work on The Matrix, The Matrix Reloaded, and The Matrix Revolutions), we felt like it was a timely film with all of the craziness going on in America (and the world) at the time.

Topics covered include:
Police brutality cases
Alan Moore books, and his hatred of movie adaptations
The rise of American fascism

So, have you seen this one? Do you think it's one of the best Natalie Portman movies?
