Dealing with feeling

"Equilibrium" is very good. It's very stylish. It's obviously influenced by "The Matrix", but doesn't copy from it. It feels like an old-fashioned dystopian science fiction novel, like Orwell's "1984", perhaps. The actors are all excellent, with a pre-"Batman" Christian Bale showing his full range, both physically and emotionally. This movie was a very pleasant surprise.
