Equilibrium (2002)
I would like to suppress what i FEEL about this movie
So
in this movie people are not allowed to have feelings because negative feelings might lead to another war. And we don't want a war because in wars people are killed!! So.. how do we handle the people that do not cooperate with us, and choose to have feelings? Right, we kill them.
This is the most important point which makes me hate this movie. Even though it probably was Wimmer's choice to portrait it like that, to show us how f*cked up the world (and its leaders) can be.
However, the idea of the future being this horrible place in which people cannot choose for themselves isn't really a new idea. Also, the fighting scenes were lame as well, I swear, at some point it looked like the two were sword fighting with guns.. At other points, all you could see were bullets (which looked more like a level of a video game than a movie). It also looked like Wimmer wanted to imitate the Matrix and did not succeed. Moreover, even though the movie isn't that old, the SFX's were pretty lousy, for a movie from 2002 this could have been a lot better.
All in all, I am pretty sure I would want to inject some Prozium to suppress my feelings for this movie..
