V For Vendetta and Dark Knight C&C

The similarities of these two movies are too obvious to miss. Both are vigilantes who are looking for the betterment of the world that they live in. They wear masks. They both hate having to use guns. They use martial arts to subdue their victims. They both have found love and are willing to give up their fight for it. They both wear mostly black attire. Both Movies are based off DC Comics and Graphic Novels. Both are friggin' great movies. Both are visually stunning movies.

The differences are always very apparent. V uses his ability to kill and cause chaos to bring down the totalitarian government that is oppressing his country. Batman doesn't kill anyone, his style is coerce information by martial art tactics. V is fighting the government. Batman is helping the city government catch the joker, who is more like V in the fac that V uses the people's anger and wants the chaos to create anarchy and a revolution. V uses big knives, while Batman uses technology advanced weaponry. V shows blood more, while the Dark Knight doesn't. V gets the people to rise up against their government. Batman wants the people to put their trust in the Gotham Government.

Overall both movies are awesome and I would give both a 9.5/10 rating.
