In a futuristic, totalitarian Britain, a freedom fighter known simply as V uses terrorist tactics to fight the oppressive society. Evey aids him in his mission to bring down the fascist government.
I loved this Documentary
I love YOU, seb
are we getting cloudy with a chance of meatballs 2?
loki s2 brother it's amazing
Lol exactly. 😂❤
Yeah, are you gonna watch "Blade" at some point?
Possibly Hugo Weaving's best performance ever and we never even see his face.
Totally! A true testament to his skill as an actor
Some scenes had James Purefoy in them. He was the original casting.
@@LizRealGirlBeauty Good for them both, it's hard to play a role with little recognition for the integrity of the character, and of course the stunt performers were great as well.
V for Vendetta, Watchmen, The Killing Joke, From Hell…
Alan Moore’s ability to write a complex and engaging story is second to none.
You forgot 2 of my favorites of his; Marvelman/Miracleman and Swamp Thing. Moore is quite the prolific writer. And while I see why he isn't a fan of the adaptions of his work, I generally enjoy the movie adaptions of his work.
Quite true.
Agreed
To not have Miracleman/Marvelman or Swamp thing on there is.... I don't know. I recently re-read both of those and man are they great. Taking already established characters, characters he didn't even create and having 2 beyond words amazing runs on them... the man is a wizard. What he does in 16 issues on Miracleman (I'm American so it's always been Miracleman to me), which was his entire run, is astounding. How to fit that much story in 16 issues. And how he comes out and just kills it issue one on Saga Of The Swamp Thing and keeps going for that whole run... man.
The original V for Vendetta was very different, but yes
" Since mankind’s dawn, a handful of oppressors have accepted the responsibility over our lives that we should have accepted for ourselves. By doing so, they took our power. By doing nothing, we gave it away" This movie has such great lines.
The Chancellor was never on Gordon’s show. They were just lookalikes, or computer generated fakes of the Chancellor.
Was before deepfakes. It was 2 lookalikes
2 lookalikes. The real Chancellor was watching on TV, you saw his hand shatter the wine glass in rage.
@@madsword19 just to add, it wasn't a wine glass, but a glass of warm milk. so not only were they making fun of big baby sutler, it was actually true lmao.
at this point in time, lookalikes would've been a fine guess, but in my opinion, it was more likely prosthetics and makeup. though that was really john hurt in both roles, note how the faces look significantly paler than their necks. that the faces look like there's a good bit of foundation caked on was likely meant to invoke a fake face, whether makeup and/or prosthetic.
Yeah this part went way over his head lol
The first name she says at the end is Edmond Dantes - the protagonist of The Count of Monte Cristo; an 1844 French novel written by Alexandre Dumas, the same man who brought us The Three Musketeers. The 2002 movie is epic and worth watching.
It’s still so amazing how everyone forgot this is basically a DC movie.
Imagine a DC Cinematic Universe with the Justice League, Watchmen and V.
Now that would be awesome.
Shhh… sh sh shh… we don’t have to talk about that.
Fuck you mean “basically”?! It IS a DC movie!
And a d*mn good one, no less.
A movie based on dc comic books, even if it wasn't its primary superhero universe
My gf and I watch this every 5th of November. I had never seen the movie until she introduced it to me when we first started dating. Absolutely love this movie 🤙🏻🔥
I think she is a keeper.
Even though we dont see V's face or learn much about him there is something so sexy and captivating about him and his presence. Hugo weaving did a phenomenal job in this role!
Yes, like the phantom of the opera😊
Yes, this is very inspired by 1984... and the head of the evil government in this was the HERO of the film adaptation of 1984.
That's kinda funny. The hero in one world became the villain in the other.
You are quite right.
He was born in the fire. She was born in the water.
'reborn'
And she saved him in the end
It’s a personal tradition of mine to watch this movie every 5th November.
Same!!!
Remember Remember
Valerie's note brings me to tears still
Hugo Weaving is iconic
This movie was one of my absolute favs as a teenager, and I still have the “V” speech memorized from when he meets Evey. One person says, “Voila!” and I devolve into, “in view, a vaudevillian veteran…”
Omg I have NEVER clicked so fast in my whole life
Same
@@connorjones7241 ha ha same!
i really recommend the count of monte cristo 2002
My fav movie
it also has a book
my grandma keeps recommending it to me i still didn't watch it
she also recommended me CITY OF ANGELES, it was amazing and beautiful
That movie is one of the worst adaptation of the source book in the meantime one of the most easily consumable and enjoyable one.
your surprise when she said he was Edmond Dantès & he was my father. Edmond Dantès is the Count of Monte Cristo (the movie V & Eve watched together). Masterpiece of a book, you should react to the film.
This movie hits differently with everything going on in the world😢
Except they had it backwards.
@@johnj4471 Exactly this. You get shit for being a Christian or Jewish, and you get cancelled, fined or even jailed for speaking the truth about what's happening in the UK. As well as the rest of the EU and the West, to be honest. France, Germany, Scandinavia, etc. We're all kinda fucked until populism takes a proper hold.
yeah liberals really need to stop ruining society
It hit the same for me as I saw our world we have now on the rise then when the movie came out.
@@xhelan131 yeah okay bud
Such a classic- so glad you like it! I can never hear the note from V's cell neighbor without tearing up... to me it's true heart of the movie.
Fun fact, the comic this is based on was written by Alan Moore, who also wrote Watchmen, The Killing Joke, and From Hell. But he wasn't credited or paid per his request, he really hates adaptations of his stuff lol
Yeah which is ironic cause his movie/TV show adaptations are generally praised
Quite true.
@@G59METH a lot of Moore’s original work isn’t that suitable for the masses. What the adaptations do a great job at, is making them more likeable and relatable.
E.g., in the original V for Vendetta the finale was supposed to be a thought experiment of what happens when you confront fascism with anarchy. But since anarchy is a fucking stupid ideology that doesn’t work in IRL the Wachowskis fortunately decided to instead make it liberalism vs facism. Also the glorification of drugs was removed, thank god.
Keep in mind that this was written it the 80s - the time of Ronald Regan and Margaret Thatcher. Most people do not remember how bad things were socially and this was a warning letter. It just goes to show how things are cyclical in that it resonates today. Just like the Watchmen - exposing what could possibly happen.
The Count of Monte Cristo is THE revenge story, and the movie ain't half bad. I'd love if you reacted to it!
While reading the book, I realized that The Count is the OG Batman.
Egg in the Basket is egg IN toast, rather than on. You just use a drinking glass or something similar to cut a hole in the slice of bread. Place the bread in a pan with melted butter, and crack an egg into the hole. :3
Hugo Weaving is an amazing actor in this, despise his face never being seen.
The scene where Evie's hair is being shorn, that was Natalie's real hair, and that was her stylist doing it, to ensure it looked as real as possible with just one take.
The final fight between V and Creedy's men I think is a case of V's nerve endings being scorched by the fire so he doesn't feel pain anymore.
Yeah but remember to use good thick bread otherwise it falls apart before you take the first bite. 😩
My mother made this for me often as a child. I always loved it.
V reminds me of the Phantom of the Opera. Hideous masked anti-hero and unrequited love.😂
Its the mysterious and the black suits😊
The actor who played Lewis is also the villain of the live-action 'Speed Racer' film.
That's Seb should definitely watch 😁
V is one of my favorite characters ever! I am so excited for your reaction!!!
Video 26 for my campaign to get Seb to watch the chronicles of Narnia
Count of Monte Cristo (2002) is now a must-watch!
Aww man you should've upload this on November 5th, missed opportunity there Seb lol
New poll for Seb to watch The Count of Monte Cristo!
He literally told her they threw out the censor approved script. I'm always shocked how hard it is for people to pay attention to the only words being spoken. They even killed the music during the conversation to emphasize it. 🤦
It's what happens when reactors talk over the film rather than pausing to comment.
15:40 Honestly, I highly recommend The Count of Monte Cristo - the 2002 version with Guy Pearce and Jim Caviezel. It's a great revenge movie and baby Henry Cavill is in it.
Add the Count of Monte Christo (2002) to your list, you will love that movie as well!
Just some trivia: As far as I know, they were allowed to film the night scenes actually in/around London, The cast and crew were only allowed to shoot near the British Parliament and Big Ben from midnight to 4:30 a.m., and they could only stop traffic for four minutes at a time.
Watching someone from London watching this is an absolute joy! Seb's tongue in cheek is swiss cheese 😂😂👏
Every Single Year Since It's Release. Havn't missed one yet.
You MUST watch The Count of Monte Cristo. Amazing underrated movie.
Well you definitely need to watch the count of monte cristo from the 2000s
Omg 😭 one of my top fav films, loved it the first time I watched and barely understood a thing, now I love it and appreciate every second 😍🦋
26:00 at the start of the show, Gordon said that he'd thrown out the "approved" script and replaced it with one he wrote himself that morning.
It was a lookalike Chancellor on the talk show. And Natalie Portman really shaved her head for that scene in the movie. Check out her Natalie Rap on Saturday Night Live -- it came out a few months later with her short haircut. AND it's an easter egg on the V for Vendetta DVD.
One of my absolute favorite movies and I have not been able to watch it since COVID. It just hits too hard. Also, forever in awe of Hugo Weaving for this role. How he consistently makes me forget that he's wearing a mask and we don't see any facial expressions is mindboggling.
Clicked on this so fast! One of my favorite movies and so is The Count of Monte Cristo (2002), please react to that one too!
I remember the first time watching this movie, the chills in all my body when they all walk up dress as V, one of the best movies out there.
Well this settles it, the 2002 Count of Monte Cristo film has to be your next reaction. One of my favorite movies of all time! It's so worth it I promise.
15:35 there was a 2004 remake of The Count of Monte Cristo and I think it's the best revenge movie I've ever seen. You should add it to the react playlist. It's been making the round in the react circuit in the last few months anyway.
It's always so funny when ppl realise/remember it's a DC movie 😭
One of the few live action DC films that is beautiful
The Wachowskis, along with Tom Tykwer (Run Lola Run, Perfume: The Story of a Murderer), directed Cloud Atlas, a great movie, adapted from the novel by David Mitchell. Starring Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Hugo Weaving, Hugh Grant, Keith David, Susan Sarandon, and quite a few more you'll know. It has multiple plots occurring during six eras in time spanning hundreds of years, and the actors play different roles in each time period. It's inventive and thought provoking and exciting. Highly recommend.
wh-what? yeah. what wha-wha?
Never heard of the count of montecristo? Need to immediately add that to the list! its got Superman and Dumbledore in it!
the 2002 version of the Count of Monte Cristo is a great film, should def react to it.
This is maybe my most favourite movie ever and it get's more relevant with each passing year.
SO glad you watched this. This is one of my favorite films ever. Thanks for sharing your reaction.
I loved all your meta laughing. Every time I see someone reacting to this they always go, ahhh, not as if we have those issues now, right guys? And then another 10 years pass, and....
Guese they didnt know about 2003 uk electronics act.❤
ayyy anonymous 😂 that’s exactly the reason why i watched this movie too ngl , i saw the mask and was like “ouu this could be cool” and i wasn’t wrong 🙏🏼 i’m shocked you know of anonymous 😂
I don't want to admit how many watches it took me to realise and get the Steven Chip pun (but I am also not a native English speaker) so, nice one^^
I was born on the 5th of November... how could I not love this movie?
Also, yes to reacting to "The Count of Monte Cristo" it's a great film
I love that the news in this was basically like watching the news in 2020.
I think my favorite part is how absolutely hard he laughs at "You bleeding sod"
S'British, s'good
30:20 "... shush girl" 😂😂😂
YOU'VE NEVER SEEN COUNT DE MONTE CRISTO!?! ADD IT TO THE LIST NOW!
Amazing film, and very topical in today's world. I always cry when I see this film. It gives me hope for our future.
i love it how you tell the truth about things randomly
Much recommend The Count of Monte Cristo from 2002
I first was introduced to Roger Allam through the Speed Racer live action movie another greatly underrated movie with awesome energy and story telling. A great movie to react to Roger is a great villain
Thanks!
This is one of my top 5 favorite movies ever!!!
I’m not from London, I’m in the US but the accuracy of this over here (and the world unfortunately) is terrifying.😢
I still find out funny that the chancellor is mr ollivander in Harry Potter 😆
28:25, this film is actually set in 2020 and the following years
You should watch My Girl (1991), its a really good movie, probably a top 10 for me at least. I would hope some would agree with me, but its actually quite underrated and a lot of people havent seen it. It would be cool if you brought more attention to it, especially in the youtube scene.
One of my all time favorite movies and my favorite reactor, perfect combo
My eyes light up because this is my favorite movie!
The Count of Monte Cristo with Jim Caviezel and Guy Pierce is great!
So glad you've watched this. Legitimately in my top 10 films ever
Top 10 Movies That Seb Has To Watch:
1) The Mask
2) Ice Age: Continental Drift
3) True Lies (1994)
4) The Prestige
5) Kingdom Of The Planet Of The Apes
6) Planet 51
7) Oppenheimer
8) Rio 2
9) Toy Story 3
10) Maze Runner: The Death Cure
the fact that the maze runner is in there appalls me.
The Mask, please no/
That movie is terrible, I stand by my statement that the only good Jim Carrey movies are The Truman Show and Liar Liar.
Crazy that they could predict the future when they made this movie.
Except this never happened.
vote if he should watch the count of Monte cristo
This movie taught me how to be free. Freedom is not free. Comfort is crippling. Fear in lies are shackles. Diversity is strength. I sound like Grant from Montypool (perspectively top tier film as well).
THE FACT THAT THIS IS A DC FILM IS AWESOME
36:27 - 'Getting shot for speaking your mind, could never happen'
But you can sure get arrested for it nowadays!
Thank you for identifying yourself as a discident.
@@user-lv8us9dp8d Just stating a fact!
@user-lv8us9dp8d Just stating a fact.
@@user-lv8us9dp8d Thanks for identifying yourself as a simp for authoritarianism and the removal of free speech. You are the kind of snitch that would love to work for dictators I guess.
Definitely should react to Count of Monte Cristo too. Great movie. There's a new one from 2024 as well, but the 2002 one is the one you want more than likely.
Roger Allam is the right wing tv presenter - he plays a dead funny pilot character, First Officer Douglas Richardson, in the Radio 4 comedy series called "Cabin Pressure" with Benedict Cumberbatch as his co-pilot. Well worth listening to.
He went out like a true badass
I always wondered if V had meant right from the start to give Evey a speedrun at his life to kill her fear and give her understanding of Valerie's letter, or if he meant to just like, punish her in revenge at the start for betraying him and give her guilt, like 'these are the people you betrayed, these are the monsters you sided with'. But when Evey refused to give any information about V to what she thought were her captors even when they tortured her, V was impressed and flattered and admired her spirit and was like 'oh crap, wait, she actually deserves a chance to learn from Valerie, I feel like garbage and a monster because I'm seeing someone building themselves into a person who doesn't deserve to be tortured'. Like, I wondered if he watched her ready to die for him and fell in love with her then.
at least you have watched it)))
42:14 - Screenwriters are always like "okay all we need to do now in the end is for one of the main characters to say 'he was my father' at the end out of nowhere and the audience will go crazy lol"
I know this is not necessarily the case for this movie but it's kinda funny to think of how some movies end in that way. Seb was about to flip out though XD
I love how aware and open minded you are Seb. Thanks for the reactions.
You’ve never heard of The Count of Monte Cristo? It is the quintessential revenge story. There have been at least two movies of it. The novel was written by the author of the Three Musketeers.
Remember, Remember the 5th of November
Scary how much this film relates to today's world in the UK. Especially during Covid. Endless Wars and now the tap Water is more contaminated than it's ever been....
I've always said that V needs to exist in today's world. The UK would benefit from him lol.
i have very few traditions, but watching this film every 5th of november is one of them
The fact that this film works as well if not better today than it did in 2005 is crazy. Ive always loved this film, but i love it even more now with how bad the governments got (US specifically in my case)
You should watch/React to "The Count of Monte Cristo (2002)" You'll like it!
The tv show host stated that he threw out the government approved script and wrote a new one that morning. So the government had no idea that this was what he was going to show on tv which is why they got so angry
Hugo Weavings performance in this movie is pretty much the opposite of Anthony Hopkins in Silence of the Lambs. Anthony Hopkins has extreme closeups to his face he only has his eyes and small facial movements to portray the character, no gestures and body composure at all. and here we have the opposite, no face at all but its all movement and gestures.
This film (and the graphic novel that came before it, though the film does alter the themes and parallels somewhat) was meant as a warning, but our leaders took it as an instruction manual.
It's chilling living in the UK and watching intolerance and zealotry rise. To be clear before anyone misreads my intention, I'm mostly referring to the far-right/conservative side of politics and how it slides ever further into bigotry, but even on the left there have still been some impacts from this, as politics have developed more and more of a black-and-white, us VS them mentality. Which only makes it easier for people like this film's Adam Sutler to prey on people's hatred and fear to take power.
This was the first movie I saw in the theater that was, rather intense, & actually made me think more about things this movie projects such as society, government, deceptive practices in both, the way people even simply treat eachother, being your own person as well being part of a collective or group, etc., what "standing for something" rather truely means. So so many things. 😀 I was 17 at the time you know, perfect timing for this. 😆😆 Now around 20 years later, after all what happened between the years 05 & 25. Well, I'm sure there's a few people know what & how I feel. Fantastic movie. Fantastic story. All of it.
Highly highly highly recommend The Count of Monte Cristo from 2002, easily one of my top ten films of all time.
Bro yes!! React to The count of Monte Cristo, one of the best storyline twists you’ll see. One of the best movies ever made - 2002 film with Henry Cavill and Guy Pearce
You've never heard of the count of Monte Cristo?? Next watch please!
