Spoiler Filled Film Conversation, Hooray!
A bunch of Welsh people talking about films and making stuff.
Enemy of The State seemed like just another far fetched, borderline sci-fi tech thriller when it was released in 1998, bypassing it’s implausibility with intense action and pacey style. But as we cast our watchful eye over it nearly 30 years later we discover that it is still definitely that, but deserves some props for it’s foresight that ages it slightly better than maybe it should have been. Also, it’s seemingly a stealth sequel to The Conversation from 1974, which is cool, we guess.
Not many films have the chutzpah to just change from a police procedural drama to a semi sci-fi tech thriller and then to a fully fledged time travel movie two thirds of the way in, but Deja Vu certainly does have the gumption to attempt it. It’s safe to say none of us at SFFCH were really expecting this from a Tony Scott movie and are left suitably baffled and intrigued. Does the unexpected turn do it for the Spoiler Filled crew or are we left in a tangled web of logic and paradoxes? Tune in to find out.
