Rating: Summary: Imaginitive, Thought-Provoking, Edge-Of-Your-Seat, . . . Review: This movie is not for those who can't imagine beyond their own small reality. An open-mind will sore with this movie. The artistic eye, the attention to detail, the creative settings, the constant mental stimulation make this movie a catalyst for our inner-thoughts. One of the best movies of all time!
Rating: Summary: It's more than a great movie Review: This movie is nothing short of an allegory. As I walked out of the theater I thought increduously, "I wonder how many people realize how true this movie is?" Not only does this movie deliver in terms of action, suspense, plot and soundtrack, it's here to teach us something. Waking up is no fun, but choosing to sleep is worse. Which will it be for you: the red pill or the blue pill?
Rating: Summary: Big dull bunny of a tale. Review: This movie is one big dull bunny of a tale. Neo has nothing going in him at all and as the series developed he got worse. He is as flatsouled and as empty as a house abandoned even by the demons and the ghosts. His fall for Morpheus demonstrates the gullibility and even narcisitic death urges that lurk in his puerile soul. Only a death urge and an extreme infatuation with himself, covertly needin g massive doses of ego-stroking could possibly explain how he fell for that equally shallow, utterly pretentious snake-oil salesman Morpheus. I feel terribly bad for Lawrence Fishburn who is a tremendous actor, capable of roles more complex and interesting that the mono-maniacal con-man strait jacket he allowed himself to get pressed into. Neo is the Messiah? I prefer the scruffy, complicated, firey man from Nazareth. This movie has been praised as innovative by people who are ignorant of the fact that all of its best ideas were stolen and mutilated from more competent science fiction writers. How about the spirituality of the Matrix? Millions of other-wize decent people have almost worshipped this film - as if it were a Revelation from the spiritual world. I find the "spirituality" of this film to be cheap. It lacks all of the complexity, difficulty, and traumas of real spirituality. Spirituality is a world of tiny deeds unnoticed, momentary ecstasys, deep sadness, joys that cannot be comphrehended, momentary brawls with the spirits, midnight fist fights with God, beauty, and service. The spirituality of this film is pure, self-congratulatory violence. It is yet another Rambo-as-Frankenstein's monster film that seems to gratify American audiences who cannot get enough of killing in the name of God. Don't buy it. Don't waste the money. You'll regret it. Go out and do something good for yourself and the people you love.
Rating: Summary: To the man that says phantom menace is better Review: This movie is one of hollywood's finest moments. I was on the edge of my seat for the majority of the movie. In my opinion, this movie boasts some of the most spectacular fighting scenes i have evered viewed. If you agree with the person above my review, than there is something wrong becasue if any movie was a let down this summer is was george lucas's episode one. that movie's target audience was for students K-8. the matrix targets a much more mature adult audience.
Rating: Summary: One of the best movies of the year Review: This movie is one of my all time favorite action flicks. I have viewed it three times and all of my friends love it too. The sound effects, music, and special effects are spectacular.
Rating: Summary: ROCKS!!!!!!!! Review: This movie is one of the best sci-fi i've seen in quite a long time. It has both action and insight on a possible reality w/c we could be living now. I myself have been wondering about this possibility that the world is not actually the real world. Anyway, this one ranks among the top, just behind the equally action-packed, but far more insightful "GHOST IN THE SHELL"!
Rating: Summary: Ooooh, Ahhhh, Ohhhh! Review: This movie is one of the best! I must rate it way up there with Star Trek: First Contact and Star Wars: Episode I Surprisingly it's not a great movie because of the SFX but because of a storyline that makes you think, too many movies lately have been without story (MI:2?!?!, not to say it was a bad movie though!)
Rating: Summary: absolutely mind-stimulating. Review: This movie is one of the most mind expanding films of the 1990's. It takes you in and straps you to your seat with enthusiasm.You cannot help but be curious to see what happens next.The effects are grand and the plot is something we all can relate to in some manner.
Rating: Summary: Superb! Review: This movie is one of the most thought provoking movies I've seen to date. There is an excellent mix of sci-fi and action, and the philosophical concepts woven into the mix only enhance the viewing process. If you have not already seen this movie, please go out and see it; it's fantastic. The movie explodes into action in the first scene and continues forward, never letting up until the end. Even if your favorite stars are not in this film, it is a must see! The co-directors do a great job of controlling the special effects so that they do not take over the film. They also sculpt the scenes in such a way that, by the end of the movie, the viewer can't help but be immersed in the story. Again, this is a must see film, I highly reccomend it!
Rating: Summary: Matrix Review: This movie is one of the very best I have ever seen. It is the 20th Century's Star Trek. The special effects are just so intelligent,I'm sure everyone who worked on this movie was just amazed at what they achived. If you like to think that there has to be more to life then this, then this is the movie for you.
