Yeah it would have been nice if they'd left V as an anarchist who might not be (and probably isn't) any better than the government he's opposing. One of the things that makes the GN so interesting is that he's really not a good guy, he just happens to be fighting another bad guy. But taken on it's own and ignoring the GN, and ignoring the ham handed "Bush is evil" sections, it's a pretty good movie.
Yes, he is a terrorist. But he is a terrorist against a guy who is basically Hitler......
I liked the movie.
