Chuck & Robert:
Considering the Wachowski's purposeful injection of contemporary politics into the source material, your objections are puzzling, but shall be respected.
The main theme of the movie was freedom. The conflict inherent to the plot stemmed from politics and how it stymies freedom.
For me, the most poetic moment in the movie was when Natalie stepped into the rain, intercut with "V," arms outstretched, defiantly crying for freedom.
It was so important what *wasn't* said in that scene. V had earlier said that what kept him alive wasn't only revenge, but through Valerie Plame (prisonmate) he realized the love for freedom that unites us all, and the silent indignation when it is disrespected.
