Good Points

Pretty good fight scenes, although sometimes they are a bit dancy!
Stylish.

Bad Points

Plot is a bit poor, bit unoriginal (Matrix meets 1984?).

General Comments

Another Matrix type cash-in, but better than a lot of them!
Christian Bale is a law enforcer of the future. An elite police man set the task of destroying people with emotion, as the rest of the population is suppressed by drugs. He's a kind of superman in that he can kill 12 armed men without even firing his own gun. But then maybe that's because they just wave their arms around and shoot randomly while he does Matrix style funk dance-fighting!
The thin plot is of an underground fighting against the ruling overlords but that's possibly not important!
The film is definitely worth a watch.
Slight plot spoiler - Incidentally, is it just me or is Sean Bean in a lot of films for just the first 30 minutes or so?!!!
