Equilibrium the Movie...Ayn Inspired?

I loved this film. Not necessarily a objectivist vs. collectivist movie, but a movie which certainly fights back against the collectivist goals of world domination through protectionist/nanny state policies.

    Equilibrium is leftist as it plays on the old shallow theme of emotions as the defining trait of the human condition.

    The attack on collectivism is accidental, much in the same way as "V for Vendetta." Both films are intended as a critique of "right-wing totalitarianism," it's just that whoever was responsible for the ideas behind this movie didn't understand that totalitarianism is a form of collectivism.
