    Why Equilibrium was cut short

    It never saw cinema releace here in sweden, and as I understood it fast went to VHS in US.

    Found this while reading SK's forum. reply nr 48
    If yea dont feel like going there hers the reply.

    The movie really rocks. The new "real" title of the movie is "Cubic". (stupid name) Too bad it wasn't allowed to be shown at the cinema.
    The president and his "people" thought it was too anti-government. Such load of crap. Anyway, Christian Bale is one hell of an actor. And the movie is really cool.

    Great movie!
    anyone know if there is any truth to this?

    I'm guessing its false news. Sweden = democratic. Will show any movie. Only reason I can really think of that it went straight to video is that promotion for the movie was

    If it wasn't for Movie-List, would probably never have had the honor of watching this fantastic movie.

    I've already shown about 10 ppl here the movie which they have never heard about. They all loved it. Even my gfs showed their gfs which they loved it too.

    I saw this movie a while ago (thanks kn'thrak) and although it could have moved a tad faster, the action scenes did kick ***. Christian Bale is very cool.

    yes the movie is very hard to get. Keeps on selling out. IT it on the DVD shelf 11 copies and then the next day they were gone. I had to ask the ppl to get some more copies from out back. But this movie is sure a fast seller.

    Just saw it and HOLY ****!!!!!!!! Just made my Top 20 with thte number 19 spot (that means a lot) perhaps even higher even if I watch it more. Some awesome ****, this DVD is worth owning for the last 5 minutes not to mention the whole movie

    It has to be rereleased - it HAS TO!
