Equilibrium (2002)
10/10
sensational, or an understatement.
27 December 2002
The first i heard of this movie was on a website, and was anticipating a big promotion and release of this. To my surprise, not a peep on the TV and barely a billboard of this film, but the trailer got my attention already and after seeing this film, I would have to say that this is one of the films of this genre and possibly all genres I have seen. With this relatively unknown cast, with the exception of perhaps Christian Bale you would have expected a cheap production on the boundaries of cheesy, but the action is slick and the story fascinating. I have watched this one several times already and each time, it seems more and more like a cross between The Matrix and Japanese Manga, with its slick choreography, dynamic action scenes and never seems to drag on pointlessly like some films do these days. If i had a pick of a movie for the past decade, I would very likely be picking this one. I am sure that this movie might not appeal to some, but fans of the drama - action genre will undoubtedly find this film as refreshing, exciting and even classy.
