Equilibrium

A stylish action film with real actors. Christian Bale's action sequences here are probably what got him the role of Batman. This film is unfortunately compared to the Matrix too often, when it stands on it's own. The movie contain much of the story line from Fahrenheit 451 and overtones of A Brave New World. A futuristic glimpse at tyranny, a nod to classic literature, good actors, and a good action director make this film well worth seeing. One of my favorites.

This movie has been likened to the Matrix. A few similarities can be seen between the movies such as themes and action involved. But that's about as far as it goes.

Equilibrium was all about realistic looking action choreography. To be honest this film has some of the best choreographed gun fights I have ever seen. And to my surprise and pleasure it puts anything in The Matrix Trilogy to shame.

Christian Bale is one of the actors that keeps getting better and better in the movies I see him in and I am turning into a fan boy of sorts.

In this movie Bale portrays a Paladin, the best of the best. Paladins are masters in the art of the Gun-Kata, a form of martial arts in which the user becomes one with his weapons and can statistically predict the trajectories and angles of return fire to maximize survivability and killing. Bale's character lives in a post WWIII society that has put a ban on emotions all emotions and a drug has been introduced to supress all emotions. Bale is void of all emotion as well and he is sent out to to remove all "sense offenders" or people who have emotions because they refused to take the drug. After missing a dose of his medication he realizes what he missed out on and begins to change his ways.

Equilibrium delivers. That's all I have to say. If you want to see a quality movie check this one out.

Excellent movie for fans of The Matrix etc. I like the "messed up future" type movies, and this is a good one, with some great fighting scenes. I'm sure you've heard this before if you are looking at the product, so I'll let the stars speak for themselves.

I've never seen this film but want to because Christian Bale is flat out brialliant. But by reading the synopsis doesn't this seem like just a different slightly altered version of Farenheit 451?

It's difficult to describe just how great this film really is, often times one cannot believe it. At first glance you'd wonder what you were seeing since it wasn't even in the theatres, let me say how wrong that choice has been.

This movie breaks all boundries of what a film should be and goes into areas that are just about brilliant. I can't tell you how wonderfully made this film was and how just completely great Bale is when acting in it. You won't even like the Matrix anymore after seeing this movie!

Anyone that gives this a bad review has no taste because it's such a great film and has so much going for it that you can hardly not watch it again. I would compare this movies entertainment value to that of Jurassic Park 1, simply to good to be true but it is...

Again they should've released this in theatres, their ignorance is their own fault because it would've smashed box office records there's no doubt about it.
