However, the ending of the film, from Evey's decision after, is drastically different from the graphic novel and differentiates the film from its more superior source. The film doesn't take the more visceral, powerful ending (that's also the most logical) that Moore had in the original text, but instead makes explicit a more simplistic and easier romance followed through to its conclusion, (instead of the parernal love that was in the comics). <BR/><BR/>I like the overall film, but the last scenes do deviate in inferior ways from the graphic novel.<BR/><BR/>PaulAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
