Quick Movie Review: Enemy Of The State

7/10

Ah.. lets overplay the prescience of this film - the act of congress they are discussing that starts the whole ball rolling is eerily reminiscent of the US Patriot Act but that's really giving the makers a bit too much credit, methinks.

The film is a rollercoaster ride of paranoia and technobabble - featuring one of the first Will Smith movie carrying experiences. That being said the film is utterly stolen by Gene Hackman, who to all intents and purposes is reprising his character from Francis Ford Coppola's classic movie The Conversation.

The whole thing is a classic 90s action movie with very little heart but a lot of bang for your buck. Enjoy
