Skip it. Anon has an intriguing premise about privacy in a surveillance state, but the execution is a muddled mess that wastes its concept and cast. Director Andrew Niccol's usual heavy-handed approach crushes any nuance, leaving you with a generic thriller that's neither smart enough to satisfy sci-fi fans nor tense enough to thrill crime-drama lovers.
Plot
Set in a near-future world where there is no privacy, ignorance or anonymity, our private memories are recorded and crime almost ceases to exist. In trying to solve a series of unsolved murders, Sal Frieland stumbles onto a young woman who appears to have subverted the system and disappeared. She has no identity, no history and no record. Sal realizes it may not be the end of crime but the beginning. Known only as 'The Girl', Sal must find her before he becomes the next victim.
Director: Andrew Niccol
