Review of Enemy of the State (1998) by Steven Y — 26 Mar 2009
Well for starters there is the best chase sequence since "The French Connection" Therew are two layers to this movie: On the surface is a pacy thriller with edge of the seat chases but underneath lies a telling commentary on government surveillance.
Its one of those truth in fiction stories which makes its point about government intrusion into privacy dramatically and effectively. Enemy of The State is a state of the art technological thriller, with non stop action, intrigueand suspense.
Smith, Hackman and Voight are all brilliant and despite some very minoir flaws the plot runs at a fast pace and is very believable.
