Equilibrium rides high on the Matrix wave, that’s for sure. One man against the system? But it’s a cool movie, I really enjoyed it. It should’ve had a bigger budget, but the story works in it’s own right, and I was surprised to see Christian Bale doing such a good job (He scared the bejezuz outta me in American Psycho).
But it doesn’t have the innovative storyline of the Matrix – and no cool heroine.
But it’s definitely worth a watch.
