Verified answer

In my opinion he is an idea - the voice of millions of people with mouths closed because of the real terrorism. Since he's an idea, he becomes everything that is needed: Revenge, Terror, Justice, Revolution, Nemesis.

Revolutionary

he's the opposite of a terrorist. a terrorist uses force to generate fear. V uses force to generate bravery. i wouldn't call him a revolutionary, because, imho, he doesn't really give a darn about anybody else except his own revenge against the government. i don't think he really cared if other people's lives improved, he just wanted them to rise up and overthrow the government for him.

This was a revolutionary fight for whats right because of the situation. If it was today then I would say terroist, but since the government was controlling hteir people, like a communist country, then It was defintily for the good of all people.

The latter.

V is a masked crusader championing freedom from an oppressed government set in a fictional futuristic city.

I think the movies' message is so relevant especially post 9/11.

Terrorist/Revolutionary - it depends on who writes the history - To the victor goes the spoils.

V was not terrorist but somebody fighting for what was right in his and for his people to not have to fear the gov. anymore and for his people to be free and also wanting revenge for what happened to him years ago and for the death of his mother....

and as he said many time in the film remember remember the 4 of novemember..

V is more of a vigilante fighting oppression. It has a very 1984-esq type feel to it.

That question could be asked of many other people in the world. Too bad nobody answers intelligently.

Revolutionary! :)
