Pretty good for a guy's second film. (Especially when the first one was a Brian Bosworth DTV movie.
The plot itself wasn't much, a rehash of F 451 with some action thrown in.
That being said, the actors make the movie. Christian Bale is good at looking cold, but he handled his awakening emotions well. He was especially good when Emily Watson was on the screen with him. Great chemestry there. Taye Diggs did fine with what he had.
It isn't a perfect film by any means. There are a lot of little problems here and there, and the gun switch doesn't quite make sense, but it certainly deserved a better release than it got.
A solid action movie, which is quite rare nowadays.
