Okay I tried to search for this but it wasn't working so sorry if this has been done. Who has seen this movie, and did you need to get new underwear?

One in the same.

 

 

 

P.S. Just realized that this should be in the rentals section, but what are you gonna do?

a friend brought this to a party and we watched this

 

VERY COOL MOVIE!

story is good, not GREAT, but makes more sense than most plots

it is worth maybe a 4-5th watching, but either than that, you'll just want to fast forward to the cool "GUN KATA" parts

I had to watch it a couple times to get everything. The idea behind the story is pretty cool, but I don't know if it was represented as well as it could have been. Hmm, what else... oh, it had good shooting scenes...

Puts 1984 to shame says I.

You know it's true.

That's a great movie....should see it again.

we're talking about the same 1984?

Actually I've never fully read it. From what I know though I'd say it's a good adaptation. It makes it sexier.

they should make a sequel. 1985.

Or a prequil. 1983: Lil Brother.

Me - Christian Bale was the shit in Equilibrium.

My Buddy Ty [with a far off look in his eyes] - For sure...

 

This movie has the best gunfights I've seen in a movie. Yes I include the Matrix movies in this as well as the Gun Battle in Hot Shots: Part Duex.

it too bad it was a low budget movie so they couldn't have more fight scenes

Posted

i find the low budget films always seem to beat the big budgets

Posted

Same here.

I just read that the only shot in the movie I thought looked fake (the one where he does a back flip off the bike then shoots the two guys int he face) was actually real. Real as in it wasn't computer animated or anything, and they didn't even use strings, just old school trampoline.

Too bad about low budget... ending was a little butchered... with specific reference to cut off face that looked really cheap.

 

other than that... good plot... overall good movie

i enjoyed this movie.

 

i used to have a rental place by me that had a lot of unknown movies in it, and this was one of them. i rented it on a day when i felt i needed to see shit being blown up. i wasn't expecting a good movie either, but i lucked out.

I liked the movie, I noticed it had a farenheight whatever the number was/matrix plot.

Posted

i'm shocked this movie was never released in theaters. i suppose it could have been, i but i don't recall it was. Seems like lots of folks enjoy it.

Posted

It made it's profit overseas, so they didn't bother releasing it theatrically in the states, because they were afraid of losing money on it...
