Usually I agree, its subjective, USUALLY. This is one of those extreme cases where I cannot find any reason at all to like this film. The movie makes no sense and breaks its own rules. Terrible acting/dialog, zero originality, over the top melodrama, and abundant cliches, all while taking itself VERY seriously. By all definitions it is a bad film. Bad sets, costumes, script, plot, SFX, continuity, props, cohesion, and logic.
If it was meant to be a comedy, then it is great success!
There is no way around it and no explaining away the ridiculousness. -

Its a very good Sci Fi movie really , its actual budget of only 20 Mill is what really let this movie down , but its certainly a better movie than other 2003 Sci Fi films like The Matrix Reloaded ( 150 Mill ) , Terminator 3 ( 200 Mill ) , League of Ex Gent ( 78 Mill ) , Timeline ( 80 Mill ) , The Core ( 60 Mill ) underatted movie actually still it spent 300% more than Equilbrium .
I admit i am a big Sci Fi fan and big Chris Bale fan , so if offered i would rather view Equilibrium over the likes of The Matrix ( original ) or even over Star Wars 1 or 2 .
