I finally got around to watching that a couple years ago, and I personally found it to be painfully boring since there's no likeable characters. I know it's considered a classic, and I generally like slow movies, but this one really didn't do it for me, despite understanding what it was going for with alienation, loneliness, and paranoia.
Like for anyone else give it a try, sure, but don't force yourself to stick with it to the end like I did if you're not getting much from it.

I remember Enemy of the State:
It was a fun movie though.
