But the whole POINT of that mask is the Guy Fawkes reference, which is something the entire plot is built around. It just wouldn't work any other way.

Hugo Weaving is an amazing actor.

Spoiler: I'm glad they did not reveal V's face. But I am confused since I did not read the comics, that the doctor says he does not have eyes, but does he? Were you supposed to take that literally?

I was kind of wondering the same thing at one point. But apparently it's just a confusing metaphorical line. There's a whole big discussion about it at IMDB

While I liked the movie and will likely get it on DVD, I think there were poor choices made regarding some of the changes:

Spoiler: The end fight. Evie's boss. All but removing most of the bad guys. The 1000s of Fawkes masks. The elimination of V having access to the government computer systems. Evie being all but removed from the ending. Adding the Muslim & Bird Flu bits seemed as though they were trying way too hard to drive home the central point of the story that should have been obvious to anyone.

I got a snicker out of the credit line: Based on the graphic novel illustrated by David Lloyd. When the author wants to distance himself so much from a movie, that really says something.

But I'd recommend it, strangely enough.
