IT IS 2020 and a virus has spread across the world killing millions. To make matters worse Britain is governed by a fascist dictator.

Against this apocalyptic backdrop a masked man, V, rescues an aspiring actress and attempts to free his fellow citizens.

Hugo Weaving and Natalie Portman star in this rather smart comic book adaptation.

It is more on par with Sin City than The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen - an enjoyable romp through a dystopian world.
