I'm a pretty big fan of this movie too, but the thing that is so great about it isnt the detail of the story by the premise it creates in relation to the power police hold, expecially in the grim world depicted within the film. Because of this ive totally scrapped that huge bit about the specific twists and turns of the movie and broken it down to (hopefully) its core without spoiling it for those who haven't seen it, and also to respect that this is an encyclopaedia, not a fan-site.

This article was clearly written by a big fan of this movie, and, quite frankly, it reads a bit immaturely in comparision to Wik standards. Hey, I loved this movie, too. Denzel was amazing, kept me wondering at every turn, I think I probably enjoyed this movie as much as whoever wrote this. But a Wik article should not betray the writer's giddiness over a movie (or anything else, for that matter).

One other thing: for the life of me, I can't figure out what purpose the "Quotes" section serves here. Some fan thought that there was some cool dialogue, and so therefore included it. I'm going to come back in a few days. Without finding an adequate explanation of that sections, I'm just going to delete it as irrelevant. Unschool 13:37, 8 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

"The Story" section is badly in need of paragraph breaks. mhunter 07:25, 14 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I changed the story section to reflect the outline of the story, while trying to maintain an NPOV view of the movie. Sledgeh101 02:54, 20 February (UTC)

Look, my fave African-American actor is Denzel. I am even downloading the movie right now. I do not agree with this part. It is wracked with unsourced POV. IP Address 07:16, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
