Equilibrium (2002)
10/10
Very good movie.

Warning: Spoilers
This movie seems to have it all: a nice plot with an important message, good script, very good acting (no "big stars", but hey, their checks don't seen to increase their talent), terrific action sequences and camera work (probably the best you can get without using a "slo-mo"), and very good directing. It also has a good portion of irony about modern civilization, which really resembles a collectivist society in the movie, with the difference that the Prozium II is replaced by media. Yet, it lacks originality in the way in ends. You can easily predict a victory of "good guys", although I doubt they are actually good, and the fact that they understand what they fight for. So, to sum up, almost excellent, but with minor flaws, IMHO, they should have made the end more open. I give it 9,5/10.
