    I’ve never met a person who I know has seen it but doesn’t like Equilibrium.

    …And it’s at a 7.3 on IMDb. That’s a pretty good rating.

      Huh that’s interesting. I kinda remember it not being that well received at the time. It did get a cult following over the years so maybe the IMDb rating has gone up since then?

        It flopped at the box and was regarded as a ripoff of the matrix’s aesthetics by critics. But it was well received by home audiences. I remember it fondly as a quick to syndication movie. It definitely has some lows in quality at points and the plot could’ve been stronger. But its highs were very solid.
