Well-styled but ultimately sluggish, laborious and derivative sci-fi thriller. Clive Owen plays a troubled cop in a somewhat dystopian future where (basically) attaching everyone's audio-visual sensory centres to the internet has eliminated crime. Or has it? Someone has come up with a way of editing themselves out of the system, allowing them to kill with impunity.

A decent idea, I suppose, but rather implausible and also not nearly as original as everyone seems to think; the thriller plotline is largely neglected in favour of ruminations on the nature of fact and truth, secrecy and privacy, guilt and memory: none of these produce any insights or anything really memorable, and the film's pretensions to being a serious movie are kind of undermined by the gratuitous nudity required of many of the female cast. Looks okay, and Owen is always watchable, of course, but I was waiting impatiently for it to end well before it actually did. I'll choose an interesting bad film over a boring one any day of the week, and Anon's worst crime is that it's simply really dull.
