In one sudden moment, he went from being an innocent shopper to a hunted criminal. Attorney Robert Clayton Dean was Christmas shopping when an old acquaintance of his slipped something into his bag without him knowing. Moments later, the man was dead, and, unknowingly, Dean had become the carrier of evidence that could discredit an entire government agency and solve the unexpected death of a respected senator. He had a home, a family, a career, and a reputation... until they took it all away.

As lies surface in the papers, talking of Dean's involvement with the mob and an affair with an ex-girlfriend, Dean realizes that he has been framed for something he involuntarily holds. Everywhere he goes, they are watching, whether via satellite, video camera, radio, or people. Everything he does, everything he says, is caught on tape. But when Dean meets Brill, an ex-NSA agent, he realizes the full magnitude of the conspiracy he is caught in and decides that the only way he can escape the mess: Do unto the conspirators as they did to him.

MOVIE REVIEW

We live in a high-tech world, where computers, televisions, video cameras, and so on control every aspect of our lives. Satellites orbit the earth and the smallest microchip can run an entire business. Without these items, we could live, but we would live in a world set back almost a century, and our lives would be severely different. Without televisions and phones, news would take forever to travel from one side of the country to the other. Several forms of entertainment would be obsolete and our ability to make things would be limited. Enemy of the State takes our ability to manipulate technology to the extreme, and shows what could happen if that technology were used for evil, instead of good.
