ENEMY OF THE STATE |

The action producing-directing team of Jerry Bruckheimer and Tony Scott, is back with another thrill-a-minute ride called Enemy of the State. Taking its "innocent man accidentally caught up in political corruption" story from such films as Francis Ford Coppola's The Conversation, Alfred Hitchcock's Man Who Knew Too Much and Sydney Pollack's Three Days of the Condor, they turn up the high-tech volume in an attempt to create the ultimate action film. Robert Clayton Dean, played by Will Smith, is a devoted father, husband, and attorney shopping for a sexy gift for his wife. What he doesn't know is that he was given a videotape from a friend (Jason Lee) regarding the recent murder of a U.S. Senator led by Corrupt National Security Agency official Thomas Reynolds (Jon Voight). Now Reynolds is after Dean to cover his tracks or, as we soon find out, frame Dean for the murder. Since Dean isn't up on his high-tech gadgetry (and let's face it, in today's world there's stuff that blows James Bond away), he needs the aid of ex-intelligence operative Brill (Gene Hackman). From there, between the explosions and chases, there's the subtext of George Orwell's 1984 mantra "beware of big brother" as Dean realizes that in today's modern world, there is no such thing as total privacy. |
