  • This trailer is so wrong - did those guys who made a trailer even read the script? or at least seen final cut of the movie?

  • THE BEST MOVIE THAT NOBODY KNOWS ....UNDERESTIMATED

  • awesome!

  • I can't understand, why this movie don't have success in the box office?

  • Awsome movie

  • @ superserb, it's a wood frame with canvas stretched tightly across it -_-

  • This movie is just like the matrix. I think the only deffirence is the matrix uses metaphors were this movie tries to be more realistic(lol). The matrix everyone is pluged into a computer program a symbol for people being asleep and brainwashed by the media to not know the truth. Matrix the system is controled by machines where as this movie it is a facist goverment. If you like symbolism watch the matrix, if you want a more plausable/realistic movie watch this.

  • @ rugbyheadbanger ..... Your lit teacher? What was their reasoning behind that? It's an action film with a deeper plot than most. It's been compared to the matrix but focuses on human weakness vs human strength and draws a comparison where as the matrix is only about human arrogance even to the point where neo dies and saves mankind because he is somehow inexplicably better than the rest. This has no  pseudo theology behind it. It's bare knuckles human error and redemption. It's a good story. W

  • You are looking at the future under the new world order RON PAUL 2012 END THE FED

    that is our only hope wAKE up sheeple

  • With the new SOPA law in the US a world like this is coming true

    

  • I watched this moviee with my dad like 5 years ago && Thought about it now.. So now we're both watching it&& Enjoying ourselves.. I Love This Moviee && Christian Bale(:

  • Where was the awesome quote from Jurgen? "The first thing you learn about emotion is that it has its price. A complete paradox. But without restraint, without control, emotion is chaos." -Jurgen. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN PLACED IN THE FUCKING TRAILER!!! it was the entire philosophical meaning of the fucking movie and the guy who put this together missed it. *FACEPALM*

  • I was sold after seeing Christian Bale face in this lol

  • "No...not without incident."

  • Is Taye Diggs a good actor???????????????

  • Only one thing is wrong in this film, Monaliza is painted on wood :D

  • underrated flim right here!

  • Matrix + Repo Man + Brazil?

  • My Literature teacher was right, this is fucking terrible.

  • How amazing would it be if they did Ultraviolet and Equilibrium crossover

  • @TheCanadianPickle How could they possibly do a crossover of two movies that take place in COMPLETELY different scenarios

  • I agree revenge films are satisfying. Another one I really enjoy is Double Jeopardy.

    Has anyone read Fahrenheit 451? Anyone who has seen this movie should read that book!

  • i loved this movie it was fucking epic

  • Actually, it is not a revenge film, though revenge is a part, a small part of the film. It is more a journey of discovery for this man and the choices that the journey brings him to. -Our professor of Intro to Humanities showed the movie in our first class. I absolutely loved this it. The book, "The Giver" by Lois Lowery has a similar theme.

  • so im guessing eventhough taye diggs is the second lead and this looks like a matrix movie its still awesome? im gonna have to rent it

  • @malcolmscotty1

    some argue that its better than the matrix in many ways. i am one of those people.

  • i have yet to see the movie, but if you think this would be a better trailer take a look /watch?v=X8j9H7h89is&feature=c­hannel_video_title

  • This movie bites off of 1984 and Fahrenheit 451, in all mechanics and ways. The action was very lets say "Unique". But it had a 20 million budget, making over 5 million. Theres a reason it was too underated, other movies have invented this movie's concept years ago.

  • Comment removed

  • the action scenes reminds me of the matrix haha

  • The greatest movie ever saw when i was a little kid loved it

  • for someone who thinks 95% of action films are shit, is this one worth the time?

  • @amazingblur it depends if you are looking for a film that has a lot of deeper plot and thinking to it.If that is the case, you might like it.This is way more than just an action film, although it has great scenes of that too. I loved it. there is a lot of subtle character development.(he is coming off of a drug that kills emotion and experiencing emotion for the first time,while at the same time trying to hide this fact from everyone around him.)it isn't a revenge movie,like the trailer looks

  • @amazingblur yes.

  • they entered his house WITH a warrant? Just goes to show the reality is stranger than fiction with all policies popping up all over the nation these days trying to get rid of the need for warrants

  • i dont see sean bean in this movie but i saw agent mahone from prison break whom i dont rmb the name.

  • this movie was banned in China

  • @ImmortalHardOn Really? I guess I would believe it.

  • it reminds me of minority report

  • I just watched this movie today because a friend gave me his DVD copy and said "you have got to see this movie". It was awesome, don't know how it slipped under my radar for so long. I would now recomend this movie to anyone who likes really good movies

  • Saw it last night for the first time. Fascinating, this is what Hell would truly be to me. A World devoid of feelings. No pain, no pleasure, no tapping into one's senses and being aroused and moved. These people were not alive they were existing. Great Movie.

  • nice trailer music! ;)

  • The film reminds me of a cross between Farenheit 451 and 1984

  • great movie

    sucks that the movie did not do good :/

    also , u just realized that this movie came out 9 years ago

  • this was an epic movie. my english class watched because it refered to the book, "farenheight 451"

  • American Psycho is the perfect Bruce Wayne.

    And this is the perfect Batman.

    But back in the day, noone but Chris Nolan saw the perfect role for Bale.

    Brilliant.

  • This is not a trailer, is a mega spoiler :)

  • NWO?Anyone?

  • if only this movie was shot in HD format. then it would been BEAST!

  • 1:43 is seal!

  • It remembers me of The Matrix

  • @JXANOGP And it shouldn't. This movie has nothing to do with The Matrix.

  • bale is fantastic in "the fighter" and "rescue dawn.

  • If this isn't cool ( and I mean shit load of cool) than I honestly swear to God no bollocks AM wrong...

  • Awesome Movie. loved The Matrix, but I think this movie is better.

  • I think this is one of those movies, which is much more better, greater, deeper and cooler, than the trailer showes. If I would have seen the trailer before the movie, I'm not sure, if I would have watched it. It look just like one of those see-my-bloody-revenge-you-bast­ards-I'm-gonna-beat-your-ass-m­ovies...and I'm no a fan of that.

  • I agree that this trailer sells the movie short. However, I find revenge films to be one of the most classic and satisfying of movie genres. A character is wronged, usually in a bloody and cruel manner and wreaks vengeance upon his tormentors. A universal staple of storytelling. Of course Equilibrium isn't one of those films.

  • @vivadjango Beyond vengeance, it's a tale of redemption. Those...I love those.

  • @vivadjango i never liked revenge films because they are simple and i am opposed to revenge , but i like justice and usually they feel the same , so...

  • @vivadjango this is one of my favourite movies.. and one of the most underrated ones to boot...

  • @Stay0in0Shadow 100% agree. I think they tried to sell it was a matrix type movie (which wyhen i saw the trailer i thought it was going to be like the matrix) However like u say the movie is much MUCH more deeper than some matrix rip off.

  • Gun kata. Why the fuck they don't teach that in law enforcement academies!

  • If you haven't seen it, imagine 1984 but Winston is a fucking badass.

  • Being derivative and unoriginal is fine, what movie isn't to some extent? But at least have a new angle, a new way of looking at it. The movie was interesting and disturbing at times, especially if you're unfamiliar with all of the ideas it pilfered. But it was predictable and loaded with inconsistencies. That's just sloppy. I just think it had a great foundation and should have been alot better.

  • I think why this movie gets such mixed opinions is that it is really good but it should have been alot better. The set of points in Equilibrium were shoved down your throat. Suppressed emotions, anti-religion, monitoring people, sentient beings' relationship with emotion, "the father" controlling the people, what makes us human, Preston slowly waking up. Where have we seen this before? It's was too heavy handed. And the fight scenes were funny. I laughed at some of it.

  • @zoeyjusko You have bad taste in action. You probably like that shaky cam nonsense in those Greengrass movies. The action in this movie was stellar and it shows that Wimmer, unlike most in Hollywood, understands the language of action cinema.

    The movie itself is fantastic. If you don't like it then fine but you have a very limited view of things. You think that this movie has "mixed opinions" when in reality all movies get mixed opinions. There's no such thing as a universally liked movie.

  • it's all filmed in Berlin. I'm proud of my capital :)

  • @TheEsprit333 : ehrlich das wurde alles in Berlin gedreht????Cool mag die Stadt eh :-D

  • is this movie worth it to watch?

  • @boundbyheart :it is definitely.

  • @boundbyheart : although some people don't get it, the story makes perfect sense, the action is high class, and Bale is brilliant.

  • @TheEsprit333 Do you recommend me to watch the movie though...

  • @boundbyheart OH GOD YES, It's amazing :D

  • @boundbyheart yep, it doesn't just have excelent action scenes, also is the storyline is quite interesting and original.

  • and thats why hes batman

  • Christian Bale would have made an amazing Neo

  • christian bale is a good actor maybe not the greatest of all time but hie is as good as any out there today . is awsome as batman but thats just my opinion!!!

  • its such a crappy film but it kicks ass

  • If I hadn't seen the Dark Knight before this movie, I wouldn't have noticed the underground leader in the beginning scene.

  • 118

  • 0:17 to 0:53 x-ray dogs the exalted one. both the music and the movie are awesome.

  • hey its batman!

  • is that really his body? couse in his last movies he is skinny as hell! ;O

  • @TheK2bakken he goes through major body changes for every movie to fit the character he acts.watch any of the newer batman movies such as the dark knight and youll see he is ripped as hell.then in other movies he loses the weight again.it makes him the best actor

  • @TheK2bakken its probably your boddy

  • Interesting scenario, though.. Gotta admitt.

  • looks awesome i want to see it now

  • This is one of my favs!~ I never get tired of watching it....and i love that blasted pupppy so much!

  • ฟังภาษาไทย

  • He reminds me of starkiller in this

  • Highlander meets the Matrix, how is this not awesome?

  • hey, cool trailer but, wich song is the one how appears on minute1:50

  • @MrJaimicrofono I think its an original song.

  • Such a bad trailer for such a good movie.

  • @basdevoogt I know, they barely mention anything about how they suppress emotion, that's what's so unique about this movie. They should've said something like, "In the future, emotions, are outlawed." or something like that.

  • @WeylandYutaniInc91 what movie were you watching? they were taking meds to suppress them......

  • @eternallyraven I was talking about the trailer, the trailer barely mentions anything about them surpress emotions.

  • @WeylandYutaniInc91 ooh okay. i was like what?! lol. cuz when you watch the movie, that is a major main thing. xD yeah, they take a drug that suppresses their emotions. have you seen the movie? you should watch it. ^^ it's not the best move ever, but i like it! the visual elements, especially.

  • @eternallyraven Yes I've seen this movie. I love it.

  • THATS how in the near future it will hapen! accept the new order or die by it! and watch the flag it reminds so badly the nazi swastika! this movie is a genious master piece!

  • When is the release of this movie?

  • @11isdax it was realesed in 2002, you can probably watch her on Youtube.

  • @11isdax been out for years :)

  • 12 people need brain surgery...

  • Watch my 'Christian Bale' vid - it is a mix of American Psycho and Machinist set to music!

  • Not as good as ''The Matrix'' trilogy but definetely a movie worth watching for what it has to offer.

  • @SprayedToTheBone no goot as the first matrix for shura and the second barely but the third hells yeah

  • this movie was awesome!!! also, a film about a world without emotion and law enforcements that kill any1 who has emotion

    THAT wud've been a great role for keanu reeves!!!

  • this trailer gives away a bit too much of the plot in my opinion, I watched it without seeing a trailer and I really enjoyed it

  • Hey look, it's North Korea!

  • Great trailer, but it sums up the movie incorrectly.

  • i loved thismovie

  • i know this song. It's X-Ray Dog The Exalted One

  • Alex MAHONE?!?!

  • desterey sent me here! haha

  • @twilightluver6297 hahahaa me too!!

  • this movie looks like it will blow my mind. :)

  • everyone seems to forget how many scenes and shots the matrix stole from this movie.

  • @smartrip11 You mean the second and the third...

  • @smartrip11 - The Matrix was made in 1999. This one came out in '02. did you mean The Matrix: Reloaded?

  • Perfect movie :D

  • I think this movie reflects more of what is going on in the world now... it would make a profound impact on how people think.

  • I think this movie reflects more of what is going on in the world now... it would make a profound impact on how people think.

  • This movie is absolutely terrific.

  • the movie is EXCELLENT! but once again the American trailer is just full of spoilers!!! They basically tell the whole story in the trailer!

  • this is really a superb film...nd yes..awfully unpraised..neways..do watch it!!

    

  • kind of misrepresented his motives. He just dropped his medicine one day and adopted a puppy. The state THEN betrays him by trying to kill his puppy. So he kills the state.

    Moral: don't try to kill Christian Bale's puppy!

  • @thomasbce hahahaaa!!

  • @thomasbce i havent literally LOLed out loud like that in a good while

  • @thomasbce you missed the whole point of the movie.

  • @t100base Of course, I'm not serious about the puppy killing being the reason. But he didn't rebel because they killed his wife, like the trailer implies. He just accidentally dropped his prozium, thereby loosing both his source of stability as well as the state's control over him. It's freedom he's now after, not necessarily revenge--well, except for the last scene, when he learns of the totality of the state's facade. But that's the end of the movie.

    Either way, I still wouldn't kill his pup

  • @thomasbce hahahaahahah that's good enough for me

  • @thomasbce

    Yep, he'll kill it himself without anyone's help, evident from American Psycho.

  • @thomasbce or break his eyeline during a scene.

  • Stylish..! :)

  • Don't see why this is compared to the Matrix often, nothing in common. Amazing film and a must see imho.

  • @RealityResurge both movies are about controlling an entire population and eliminating those that oppose it to maintain "order". and they both contain ridiculous action sequences that are physically impossible

  • Scary.. that the story behind the movie is excactly what the future of our lives is going to be

    Really hope.. but doubt it that there's going to be a Christian Bale who will owerthrow the corrupt system wich we will demand ourselves just about in 20-50yrs

    This movie is so very under-rated and wasnt a success couse people who want and plan this kind of future dont want u to know that.. bet anyone who watches this doesnt want to live in a future like that.. Peace<3

  • More Bitter Unlike The Matrix Reloaded (2003)

  • though in batman hes good however Christian bale is way better here

  • definitely worth a watch!, idk why it wasnt a success..

  • amazing film

    some of the best action scenes ever and also a great story and acting

  • movie looks good. Bale looks good. i need to check this out.

  • Ron Paul 2012

  • one of my favorites of all time

  • @shmoe2332 yup. The best movie I've ever seen. :)

  • Why do u compare it to the matrix. Its so much more then the action. how he feels!:D

  • BEST FILM EVER

  • christian is too gorgeous, oh my GOD

  • He looks so hot in this movie.. I love the slicked back hair and the black outfit.. But above all that he is one talented actor.. I love this movie..

  • ....us usual CHRISTIAN IS HANDSOME!!!!!! The movie is better than Matrix!!!!!!

  • great trailer

  • bom filme!

  • This movie is incredibly similar to ultraviolet... i can't believe i haven't seen it before... *off to a DVD store*

  • This movie has the only evil guards who could actually lose in a sharpshooting contest against Imperial Stormtroopers.

  • what the heck.

    This is the kind of trailer I fucking hate.

    I just watched this movie and I fucking love it, its so good, but this trailer gives a total inadequate impression on what the plot of the movie is, and practically spoils everything.

    Its dumb.

  • One of the best movies in its genre and one of my favorite ones.

  • 1:50 to 2:02 Can somebody tell me the name of the music in that part, its awesome.

  • why is the mona lisa so biiig?????/

  • Both John Preston and Guy Montag go through a transformation during the story and they switch sides, after realizing the truth. If any of you like Equilibrium and have not read Fahrenheit 451, I strongly encourage you to do so. If Fahrenheit 451 was turned into a movie, I could very well surpass Equilibrium.

  • @authorjg ummm... there is a movie made from fahrenheit 451?! it's by francois truffaut, a french director. it's from '66 so not really contemporary but i highly recommend it. shouldn't be too difficult to get a version with subtitles.
