    Equilibrium

    For those that liked The Matrix, this is right up your alley.

    This is a futuristic action title that stars Christian Bale. It's different than most action titles in that it actually has a thought provoking plot. This is not a style over substance film here.

    The action is pretty stellar stuff in a Matrix-Like way. It deserves a 7 out of 10.

    Anyone else catch it?

    Ya..great movie.
    I particularly liked the fusing of martial arts and gun play into the "Gun-Kata".
    Sean bean has such a small part in it, i almost missed it though.
    heh.
    This along with Amercian Psycho is why i believe Bale will make an EXCELLENT Dark Knight.
    My bud pointed out, and rightfully so, that this dude must be the most instense actor on the market right now..
    good stuff.

    Cheers,

      Yeah, I picked this up a couple of months ago on a whim and was rather pleasantly surprised. Christian's performance in this film raised my interest in "Batman Begins" substantially.

      Enough that I used this while re-calibrating my projector yesterday afternoon and watched it all the way through!

          by Andrew Pratt
          Christian Bale thought he had his hands full battling dragons in the futuristic thriller Reign of Fire.

          If all the planets align in his favour, Bale could soon be tangling with Superman.

          The buzz in Hollywood is that Bale is the front runner to play Bruce Wayne and his...

          TEARS OF THE SUN

          Okay, now, let's be honest. Out of today's crop of actors, who does the action hero better than Bruce Willis ? In Tears Of The Sun he is at his best. At first portraying a tough Navy Seal, but who later breaks his own rules and gets involved by going against orders....

          by George Bellefontaine
          I went and bought The Scorpion King and played it last night. Yeah, it's junk, but fun junk. No story, no acting, just action and boom boom boom. Get the popcorn out and check your brain at the door.

          The Rock... this guy is just too much. He actually makes Arnold look good.
