V for Vendetta
"I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is." This doesn't fully answer my question but its more of a personal opinion. This movie is the ultimate rise to action movie. This movie takes place shortly the after US has crumbled into shambles, and the UK stands firm and strong. I'm sorry to say but that is a very likely possibility if anyone is going to be killed off in a Nuclear War it is going to be America the ULTIMATE symbol for freedom as of right now.
As you can tell from my list of the 10 best movies I have ever seen I really enjoyed this a lot. It was a domino falling into place slowly forming the way I think of the government. But lets not talk about that on the web its... unsafe. The falling of a domino is the beginning of a chain reaction that can't be stopped unless something goes terrible wrong, even then it takes a willing person to begin a new. It can always fall but it has to stop with one course of action, with a bang. One scene in this movie has a striking resemblance to another movie I have reviewed before.
This movie had a entertaining storyline, well thought out action sequences, a few witty jokes for the more intelligent humor. One of its biggest cons ones the over use of slow motion I personally thought, but I will leave that up to you.
Cast:

The Graduate (1967)
The Graduate
A few recognizable quotes are-
·
"Mrs.
Robinson, you're trying to seduce me. Aren't you?"
·
"Plastics."
·
"Mrs. Robinson"
The one in the middle may seem a
little out there but trust me listen to some dialogue of your favorite movies. You
might be surprised. I’m just coming remembering that I haven’t voiced my opinion.
I personally think that this is a very well-crafted movie with a soundtrack
that goes along with it really well. There are a few moments, when it can be a
little to sexual, but then Ben messes something up and provides comical relief.
Here is a list of some major roles
in the film
As we get father into the movie we start to hear more and
more of Elaine Robinson, a childhood friend. But this is a major part of the movie,
so I’m not going to give too much of that away.
Overall I give this movie a 5 out of 6.
Pros- Excellent scene flow, Dialogue is great, Sound track
well worth it, Quotes definitely remembered, Amazing actors, Director did a
great job over all.
Cons- I will let you decide for yourself it just was missing a few elements I would have enjoyed

Psycho
I have never been a huge fan of horror movies. That being said I'm going to continue on with this review of Psycho. This is thee father to all horror films. This being said the basis of this particular film was a man named Ed Gein. ===>
You begin to get and idea who Norman is through some of his lines such as-"We all go a little mad sometimes."
- "Old habits die hard."
- "This place happens to be my world."
- "Mom, there is blood everywhere!"
- "A boy's best friend is his mother."
- "We all go a little mad sometimes."
