Review title: A Mindless Matrix
Product review: Equilibrium strives to be a hybrid of Fahrenheit 451, 1984 and The Matrix. Unfortunately, it lacks the powerful social commentary of Fahrenheit 451 and 1984 and fails to achieve the technical mastery and philosophical underpinnings of The Matrix. In reality, director Kurt Wimmer has merely remade Logan's Run with the stylistic sensibilty of The Matrix. He should have called the movie Neo's Run.Sure, the gun fights are cool, Christian Bale is effective as a poor man's Neo and I actually enjoyed this movie. However, it is absolutely absurd to suggest that this movie even approaches the literary or cinematic greatness of the aforementioned titles. The sets are cheap, the CGI is poor, the costumes are cheesey and Taye Diggs is absolutely abysmal.In short, Equilibrium draws inspiration from a broad spectrum of superior sources and ends up being nothing more than a bit of mindless fun.
