Equilibrium. Definitely a B movie. Call it a Matrix clone if you will, but that opening was an incredible experience in the theater.
- Equilibrium is definitely a fun movie, but it's hard to avoid the fact that the Matrix does it better.
  
  I remember it had a "Forget the Matrix!" quote on the cover, but when I saw it on a rental store shelf many years ago someone had put a store sticker on it so it just read "get the Matrix!"
