V for Vendetta was a horrible transition. Maybe passable as a popcorn blockbuster, but when you look at the symbology, the order of events leading up to the Conservative takeover, and even V's ideology, it just falls flat on its face.
A couple characters were recreated faithfully, but not V. The movie presented V as a character who really was a monster whose ultimate goal was revenge. It leaves the question of Freedom Fighter, Terrorist, or Madman unanswered, but in the book it definitely was.
My vote goes to Spider Man 2. It didn't recycle the old adage to the point of nauseum and it presented Peter Parker the way he should be: a loveable nerd with superpowers.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
