I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

This movie has totally unessesary.. And very graphic sex scenes that could have been avoided all together. Totally ruined the movie. Ok the guy chose to have sex with a prostitute as an excuse to draw out a hacker. As if that wasnt a terrible enough tactic, they have to go and show the bordering on hard core porn scene of how he played it out. They could have atleast merely suggested it, but now we have to endure this scene which he thinks back on again latet in the movie where the whole thing repeats again just to refresh our memories. Later you find that the hacker just so happens to be a woman, and guess what? They end up having sex in yet another very graphic scene.
Sorry this is not a movie

For a sci-fi movie I thought Anon was a refreshing movie, with a to me totally new concept, a story that I haven't seen before. And not only I haven't seen it before but it was also good and entertaining, so I really don't get why you would score this movie with a low rating. It had everything you want when watching a sci-fi, nice futuristic concept, a good intriguing story, and a good cast. Clive Owen and Amanda Seyfried, as well as the rest of the cast, made this movie enjoyable to watch. It doesn't have alot of special effects and CGI's but it doesn't really have to, because the story itself stands on it's own and doesn't need any of that. I had a good time and I don't care about the negative reviewers.

Characters are two dimensional, but not even in a stylish way. Predictable men fight over being the saviour of a woman. The women in the film are just objectified.

Anon features a world similar to ours, where personal information has become commodified, and everyone has an internet lens in their eyes, as well as processors in their mind, like the anime Ghost in the Shell. As technology becomes more and more advanced, it's hard not to believe that at some point tech won't merge with the human body in some way that seems scary to those of us who grew up before the internet.
Anon features a great concept of hackers being able to manipulate people's personal tech, again, much like Ghost in the Shell, and commit various crimes by making themselves blind from the views of others. The way the technology and world is presented is very skillful, without tons of exposition, just allowing you the viewer to learn about the world shown in the way a movie should educate the viewer: by showing and not telling. Thankfully, there's no scene where some technician explains how the eye-lens and brain-tech works. Nobody in that world would look that up, how often do you look up how your microwave works? Do you even really know how it does, to an intimate level? Most sci-fi makes the mistake of having the characters explain things too much for the benefit of the audience in un-natural conversations.
Anon's actual mystery component isn't stunning or extremely astounding, but it's worth a watch for the great performances, and how the future-tech intelligently figures into the story, and how it's presented. A solid watch.
