I know, it's not a series, "only" a movie. But does anybody know, how I can get the music?

No I have never seen it. I Have heard it is influenced by Matrix. Is it worth a watch? I value peoples comments on this site coz you guys know what you are talking about :)

Well I just loved it. It has nothing to do with Matrix (besides the look, maybe, but not storywise). It's more like a 1984-idea behind it. The main character moves from "believing in the system" to "underground resistance". Some think, the action scenes are over the top, but I liked them. They are much less computer animated than Matrix(lower budget - better for the story

). For me, the characters are the main point in a movie, and I think at this one, it's quite well done. Don't want to tell you too much, though, might spoil the fun. Just go and rent it, and see for yourself.

Hint for women (and want-to-be): Christian Bale plays the main character (just gorgeous looking chap!)- I have some pictures, but I haven't found out yet, how to post them here ...

Excellent movie. I highly recommend it. It shows a bleak future and the lengths some will go to keep humanity under control. Not to mention some pretty good acting and some very well done fight scenes.

What a great movie, the whole idea of Gun Kata, wow. I would have to say that Equilibrium has the best fight scenes I have ever seen.

Excellent movie. It convinced me Christian Bale would be a good Batman. Wonderful story, great effects

It's one of my favorite movies. Christian Bale is phenomenal in it and everyone here is right.. the fight scenes are amazing.

Can't remember the music Esther... wish I could.

Will have to go hunt for it.

And for everyone here, a pic of Christian Bale in "Equilibrium". Oh, and for all the ladies out there... Sean Bean is in it too!

Completely forgot about Sean Bean. Is there a movie in the last 5 years he hasn't been in? One of the best character actors working.

Someone gave me Equilibrium a while back. I never watched it and it's still sitting on a shelf along with a bunch of other movies I have but never watched. Is it really that good? I might have to look at it. I heard somewhere that its sort of like The Matrix.
