			== Summary ==

			{{spoiler}}

			In the year 2415, four hundred years after a plague wiped out the majority of the Earth's human population, the five million humans left live inside a single walled city, Bregna, under the totalitarian rule of the Goodchild dynasty. Aeon Flux, a rebel working for the Monican insurrection, whose sister has been murdered by the Goodchild regime, sets out to assassinate world leader Trevor Goodchild. During her mission, memories from another life emerge, causing her to re-evaluate her goals. As she attempts to understand the troubling connection she feels between Trevor Goodchild and herself, she uncovers the truth behind the survival of the human race, her sister's death, and her own role in the chain of events that may lead to a revolution.


			== Reviews and criticisms ==

			Film critic [[MaryAnn Johanson]], reviewing the movie on her [http://www.flickfilosopher.com/flickfilos/archive/2005/aeonflux1202.shtml website], wrote:
			:There's exactly one good moment in <i>Aeon Flux</i> that I can see: It's the tiniest bit of throwaway stuff amidst disaster on a grand scale, but still, it's there. Charlize Theron's tough-chick assassin/rebel Aeon is actually, like, <i>rescuing</i> a guy, and a powerful, strong, smart guy at that, and as they run along crowded city streets, <i>she's</i> the one leading <i>him</i> along by the hand, and when he gets shot, <i>she's</i> the one supporting <i>his</i> injured body, slumped under his weight as they move -- <i>she's</i> the one protecting <i>him</i>. She's strong, sure, but he's not weak, just vulnerable and lost, and it's just a cool little reversal of clichéd depiction of the genders that understands that guys don't automatically have to be emasculated when women get powerful and capable.
