Movie Review : "Equilibrium"

In a futuristic world, a strict regime has eliminated war by suppressing emotions: Books, art and music are strictly forbidden, and feeling is a crime punishable by death -- a rule that's enforced by feeding the denizens a mood-limiting drug. John Preston (Christian Bale) is a top government official responsible for destroying those who resist the rules. But when he misses a dose of his own medication, he experiences a pang of conscience. - taken from Netflix.com


I originally picked this movie out as Christian Bale was the main actor. I don't think I made it through the first 20 minutes before I turned it off. Made in 2002, another storyline of 'destroy mankind's emotions, and society functions best'. Including flags that were near imitations of Nazi flags, and a similar look to '1984'. One star.
