Sequel to Enemy of the State?


It could have worked as such. There is a thin line between paying homage and plagiarism, so the easiest route would have been just to make an indirect sequel. The poster art is even the same as Enemy...

Yeah, you're right! Now that I think about it! But this film (2008) is more "our generation's" "Enemy Of The State" (1998)!

There are threads saying it copied I Robot, but the one it most reminded me of was Enemy of the State. What's more Caruso appears to have modelled his directorial style, very much on Tony Scott.

I think the style can be summarized as start running, run some more then run faster. If even more speed required add multiple cars and smash them.
