V for Vendetta is based off a graphic novel with the same title, so they sort of had to use it. And it never struck me as a terrible title.

Maybe its just you?


Then the graphic novel also has a terrible title. Think of it this way, if another movie was named A for Apple would you go see it? It would have been perfectly fine to call it vendetta, but V for Vendetta just sounds dumb.

I thought the title of the movie was just "Vendetta"

The reason for the title is because the main char calls himself V, and this is supposed to be a double symbolism: Both the letter V and the number 5 are supposed to be significant to his character, I believe.

They should have called it Red Faction. I only saw the previews, but it sounded exactly like the plot from the the video game Red Faction 2. (I never actually played RF 1)
