Enemy Of The State Summary
MPAA Rating: R
Director: Tony Scott
Genres: Action, Thriller
Rating:
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 The_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 the audience soon finds out, frame Dean for Rachel's murder. Since Dean isn't up on his high-tech gadgetry, he needs the aid of ex-intelligence operative Brill (Gene_Hackman). Between the explosions and chases is the subtext of George Orwell's -1984 mantra "beware of big brother," as Dean realizes that in the modern world, there is no such thing as total privacy. Arthur Borman, Rovi
