132 minutes.
That's all you need to know about V for Vendetta, a ho-hum, mildly actionish Message Movie from the screenwriting Wachowski brothers, they of The Matrix. From their consistently pretentious efforts, we've come to realize that whatever can be said should be said as ham-fistedly and obviously and repeatedly as possible. (McTeigue, the director, carries over from the Matrilogy as well.)
Go elsewhere for plot synopsis and piquant criticism; I have little to add to the chorus of faint praise. It's watchable. That's all.
