Scientist saves a murderer from Death Row in order to trial a new drug, which is meant to supress all violence and misdemeneors, to create a 'normal' human being. The film is similar in plot to A Clockwork Orange, but vastly insuperior in every respect.

Control is a typical Hollywood formulaic film, with all of the best 'action' scenes; shoot 'em up, beat 'em up and of course, THE car chase. If you are not bored with this sort of 'action' rent this film. However, if you have not seen A Clockwork Orange, do yourself a favour and rent it!
