Summary, Director, Cast Info.

The Director of the film Equilibrium is Kurt Wimmer who has done films search as Ultraviolet, The Recruit, The Thomas Crown Affair, Sphere, and several others. So it seems with this list of films that Kurt likes to do films with action. He also obviously has some experience with Sci-Fi films being that he had done Sphere before Equilibrium. His fan base increased a bit after Equilibrium had been filmed in 2002. The cast consists of many actors only five of which I actually recognize. These being the star of the film, Christian Bale, Taye Diggs, Sean Bean, William Fichtner, and Sean Pertwee. All of these actors play out their individual roles well but I thought Christian Bale did well for his part. As seen before he is usually in serious roles such as those in American Psycho, which I first heard of him, Shaft, and even Empire of the sun, when he was just a boy. Now on with the plot summary. The film starts with John Preston (Christian Bale) a Tetragramaton Cleric, already killing a bunch of Sense offenders. We then learn that his partner played by Sean Bean, is hiding the fact that he feels. John learns this and then has to kill his partner. One day John accidentally knocks over his drug that keeps people from feeling. Thinking he can handle one miss dosage he continues one with his days work. Soon he begins to feel, and realizes all of the things he has done. Secretly feeling, and being the number one cleric he tries to help people but realizes that he can’t. He is then found by the leader of the underground rebellion (William Fichtner) and tries to help him by offering to kill Father (Sean Pertwee), the head of the Tetragramaton. John’s new partner (Taye Diggs) learns this and tries to stop him. By the end of the movie, we learn about Father and John takes down the system of the Tetragramaton.
