Summary: It really makes you think.......
Review: This movie can be summed up in one word...Wow. It makes you think and question our everyday life. The "bullet-time" effect with Neo was one of the best special effects in the whole movie. It makes you want to move like him and be like him. They writers made many clever explinations and theories about what happens in our lives. For example, they explained deja vu in a way you would never think of. Anyway, it makes you wonder if we are really here, if we are actually in a real world. All the points that they made fit in together very well and almost never contradicted each other."What is real? How do you define real?"

Summary: The Matrix Has You......and if it doesn't, it will soon
Review: This movie cannot be bought on vhs. I mean, it can be physically, but you simply cannot view it in its full awesomeness without super sharp picture, slow-mo, zoom, and dolby digital 5.1 surround sound BABY! If there is a person on earth who has not seen this great sci fi story, I will personally mail them a copy at my own expense. (not really, I merely used that elaborate statement to show my love of this film) I can't give away the plot, but, for my sake, buy it now. GO!

Summary: One of the best movies of the decade!!
Review: This movie captures the attention of even the most skeptic movie goer. It provides action and confusing mystery to your average day. It leaves you spell-bound and wanting more. If you haven't seen this awesome movie yet, go see it! And if you have it would be a grat addition to your movie collection.

Summary: Awesome flick!
Review: This movie caught me by surprise when I first saw it. I was not expecting it to be as good as it is. It is the best flick of '99 by far. It is MUCH better than phantom menace (unless you are around 12 years old)

Summary: I wished I had seen this on the big screen
Review: This movie caught my eye after its theatrical release. As a sci-fi/action film goes...this one is evertyhing you could want. Action, cool clothes, over-the-top good guys and villians and a great sountrack. If there was a slow part, I guess the first 15-20 minutes, which is the character establishment phase which is a necessity on a film like this. One after you know what this "Matrix" is does it really kicks into high gear. This is a film that I enjoy watching over and over. My only regret is that I didn't see this on the big screen. Maybe someday. I hope to see Reloaded on an IMAX screen since it is being converted to that and being release around the end of May or so. Matrix is a strong buy!

Summary: Robots vs. Kung Fu
Review: This movie combines one of the best story lines in the sci-fi genera with the most original special effects and camera work ever. The plot is very thought provoking, volumes could be written on the scenario suggested in this movie. If you not in the mood to think, the Matrix is still the movie to watch. Incredible visuals and action scenes with the best gunfights and kung Fu ever. The directors seamlessly integrate the story line into the action, avoiding any drops in the energy of the movie. This movie is what DVD was made for!

Summary: Not seeing "The Matrix" is not an option
Review: This movie combines sci-fi with an action adventure. With some of the best special effects that I have ever seen, you will be left dumb-founded and sitting on a curb after you view this masterpiece. A marvelous movie, and instant favorite among college students (the people that keep Hollywood in business).

Summary: Movie without a brain
Review: This movie could have been so much more if only the writers used their brains. There is no such thing as perpetual energy. It takes more energy to keep humans alive than you could get out. Even if you bought into that, the "virtual world" which allows limitless possibilities ends up in a gun fight. How brainless.

Summary: LOST 2 STARS BECAUSE OF KEANU!
Review: This movie could have been so much more, they had the cast (with the exception of one) the special effects (simply mindboggling! )and most importantly, a story worth telling. I was one of many people standing in a very very long queue, eagerly waiting to watch this megamovie of the year, imagine my disappointment when I saw Keanus cardboard performance ruining a potentially brilliant movie, I dont like bagging an actor but in this case I cant help it, everytime Keanu was I on, I would close my eyes and imagine Carrie-Ann Moss doing those make me drool special fx moves! or pretending Laurence Fishburn with that oh so sexy voice and darkly cool good looks standing dramatically like a leather bound Nubian King! but even those images could not shake Keanus performance out of my head, and I tried, I really tried, I wanted to give Matrix 5 stars but I couldnt, so sorry to those who loved the film. Keanu aside, this movie was awesome, I cant say enough positive things that adequately describe it so Ill just say it is visually stunning, dark and enthralling in parts, creative and watchable. Slightly off the track, Ive heard a rumour that the sequel may have the incredibly talented Jet Li (Hes a martial arts megastar up there with Bruce Lee in my humble opinion! ) if that is true then Ill be in another very very long queue just to see his awesome performance (gauranteed! ), I have to add I wish Mark Dacascos was Playing Neo, if youve ever heard of him you would understand, hes just as awesome and better looking! and by the way I dont hate Keanu, I just think he was miscast!
