Rating: Summary: DVD Terrific Review: The Matrix is a good movie with great special effects. The DVD is probably one of the top ten on the market today. It has plenty of extras and the movie itself looks amazing. It is a hell of a buy for under $20 and I highly recommend. You won't be disappionted.
Rating: Summary: Awww SNAP! Review: This movie's soooo good - it makes you want to slap your mama
Rating: Summary: An Explanation of Dejá Vu Review: I think that this movie was put together ingeniously. When I watched it for the first time (I now own it), I got a little confused when Neo woke up and the machine came and unplugged him. I couldn't tell where he was or which world was real or what was up and down. There was just enough confusion to keep me guessing and just enough to make the realization an even bigger OOOOOH!I recommend this to sci-fi fans, but not to people who don't like somewhat complex plots, because you have to wait awhile before everything becomes clear. I won't tell you how many times I've watched it, but let me tell you, it's worth it.
Rating: Summary: Attention Mac Users! Review: This is the only DVD I have come across so far that will not play on a Mac equipped with DVD. The fine print on the back of the box says so! I also tried it and it's true; it simply doesn't work! Pretty sad if you have one of those nifty IMac DV machines. For a film about a computer hacker exposing and breaking down the establishment, this is really ironic! Don't get me wrong; I love The Matrix. In fact I think it was definitely better than The Phantom Menace. Nevertheless I forced to give it one star because it is the only DVD I have come across so far that won't play on a Macintosh.
Rating: Summary: Great movie Review: this movie was a well planned out movie... I admitt it did have some boring parts but what movie doesn't. I rated this movie a 5 because it has a lot of great action parts. and the affects were great.
Rating: Summary: Pathetic Review: Special effects don't make a good film. Pretty pathetic.
Rating: Summary: Time to take the Red Pill Review: "The Matrix" is a reality-twisting story of a programmer (Keanu Reeves) who finds that the world he lives in isn't real at all. An interesting story is made all the better by some truly inventive action sequences and the great special effects (most notably the chopper crash and "bullet-time" effects). This is one for the library. Check it out.
Rating: Summary: A thinking movie disguised as an action flick Review: Don't let the fight scenes fool you. They were included only to get the film approved by narrow minded, sequel-oriented, film executives. This movie makes you think about the reality of our own existence as well as the veracity of our government officials. Don't take the blue pill, take the red one and learn about how the Matrix has YOU!
Rating: Summary: Nice Action/Weak Story Review: The special effects in this movie are absolutely amazing. The fight choreography was a little weak, but to be expected when working with the likes of Reeves and Fishburne. The bad guys are cool and the setting is great. This movie is definately worth a look. Still, there are some HUGE holes in the plot, not great acting, and a very thin rationale for blowing away innocents who happen to get in the way. Look past these minor flaws and you'll have a good time.
Rating: Summary: Generally good with an exeptional storyline Review: An exeptional Science Fiction movie needs to provide many key aspects, many of which the Matrix has forfilled. One of the key qualities the movie owns is a storyline which is not only unique and original but captures the imagination of the audience.The action scenes of course provide the basis of the movie,and although this is a common fault of the modern film industry, fantastic technology and correography back this up. To sum up this still does not compare to the all time greatest sci -fi film of 2001 but is worth a watch
