This movie sucked. And then it has the nerve to have on the cover "Watch out Matrix", or something like that. Believe me, Matrix has nothing watch out for.

great movie, but it doesen't come close to even touching the Matrix TRILOGY, not a single one of them!

For me, Equilibrium was more complete than the Matrix. It made a clear, concise statement; Bale was more convincing than Reeves; the effects were excellent yet not to the point of absurdity; and it didn't take three films to tell the story.

Watched Equilibrium on video because it's not released out here. Which is a bummer, because I personally thought it was one heck of a futuristic film. The stunts are amazing, the FX, too... MOst importantly, the story has a more personal, humane side to it.

Plus....Christian Bale could definitely give Keanu Reeves's NEO a run for his money. Can't wait to see him as Bruce Wayne...

Its no way that it can beat the Matrix Trilogy. It had goog ideas and plot developement, but The MAtrix has so much more to offer.

Christin Bale could play Neo much better, did anyone notice that Keanu didn't even make any facial exprettions the whole trilogy.

I think that was the point to his character... he was like a machine... yet human... big grin

i just got done seeing this movie, and i have to say, there is no way, shape, or form that this movie is similar to the matrix. it's like comparing apples and oranges. the only similarity i saw was the hallway gun fight... that's about it. and that is not a bad thing. the movie was great. the plot was great with excellent twists. it is "original" in it's own rights, as was the matrix. bale did a great job. [SPOILER - highlight to read]: i would've loved to see bale and diggs go at it like rabid dogs with samurais. diggs was dead in about three moves.

an absolutely under-rated movie. i asked the local hollywood video if they had this movie and they didn't. and they had stacks and stacks of the matrix (who woulda thunk)... and 8 out of 10 stars.

I loved this movie. A lot of people have said that it was crap, but I thought it was really good. I liked the bit near the end when the front half of the black guys face just falls off (looked cool, but was kind of a rip off of one of the scenes in Ichi the killer).

BTW, does anybody know if Gun Kata is actually a real martial art??

Yeah, just rented it tonight, and I have to say I was surprised by how good it actually was. I had heard it was just as good as the matrix if not better, which I doubted, but it was actually pretty good. The action scenes were very nicely done, especially the hallway scene and when he kills the sweeper team. The action was about as good as the matrix, although not as many action scenes, but the movie was not quite on par as the matrix, but still a great movie.




******SPOILERS********

Only part I thought was bad was when Bale sliced his "partner" apart in only three moves at the end. When they showed them fighting before, it was pretty evenly matched, so I don't think it would've been that one sided.
