Summary: Wowie!!
Review: I just gotta say...this movie is the ONLY movie I have ever gone and seen a 2nd time the next day! It was great...and Keanu is kinda cute. :)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: IT WAS THE BEST ACTION AND SPECIAL EFFECTS MOVIE I'VE SEEN!
Review: I JUST HAPPEN TO THINK THAT KEANU REEVES IS A SEXY MAN AND THE LAURENCE FISHBURNE IS AN EXCELLENT ACTOR. THEY BOTH SET THAT MOVIE OFF THE HOOK WITH ALL THE FIGHTING SCENES. I REALLY ENJOYED THIS MOVIE AND ITS ONE THAT I CAN WATCH OVER AND OVER AGAIN!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Nice DVD is worth your money
Review: I just looked at the DVD version of the Matrix. Don't get me wrong it's a great movie and the extras are worth while to watch. This movie has been a major contribute to cinematography as it exists in the world today. Then why just three stars? Because I was fairly dissapointed about the picture quality. But oke. It's not too bad and the movie is a great trip!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Stays with you like a splinter in your mind!
Review: I just love this movie. It's got a little of everything. Who *doesn't* enjoy stunning special effects, high energy martial arts, daring rescues, and loud music? But you also get a complex and intelligent plot that really makes you think, mixed with spiritual and religious parallels. I really wonder if this movie wasn't just "over the head" of some people who didn't like it.

Keanu is a bit awkward, but it could be worse. His character by nature seems to be a bit awkward and stiff. But he also has a charming and very human feeling of vulnerability, and it's kind of endearing. I even got attached to Neo, as silly as I think Keanu is. The very short love scene between Neo and Trinity was the most touching love scene I've seen in a movie.

There are some plot holes, and other little flaws. With all the fancy special effects, you'd think they'd be able to find a stunt double that actually looked like Keanu, and would be able to hide the wires better when he makes his amazing leaps. Watch the battle in the subway station, especially for problems. I even noticed the first time I saw it that the stunt double looks about 50 pounds heavier than Keanu. The killing of innocent people bothered me a little too, especially when Neo and Trinity wipe out all the security guards. I understand shooting the innocent people that the Agents had taken over, but the huge shoot out was a little gratuitous.

I didn't expect to like this movie - I'm not that into action flicks - and I loved it. It's on my top ten list. It lost something on VHS on my little TV. Seeing it in the theater is quite an experience. DVD is probably the way to go.

Enjoy this movie!

Summary: Highly entertaining.
Review: I just saw the Matrix recently for the first time, and I loved it. Sure, other movies have used similar ideas. But the Matrix is still very entertaining, fun to watch, and it did make me think.

The opening scene is great. Action, action, and some more action, plus that awesome little spinning-camera thing with Trinity's kick. I love that part.

We move on to Neo, played by Keanu Reeves. Stop picking on Keanu! Sure, maybe he's a dolt, but he did a decent job in the Matrix (and he's hot!). Yet another fun spinning camera shot, this one just spiraling over Neo instead of circling around him while the action freezes like the first one. Long sentence.

Agent Smith is hysterically deranged. One of my favorite scenes is -- well, I won't spoil it, but it involves water. Snigger. Morpheus kicks derriere (literally); the fighting scene between him and Neo is great.

The film gets violenter as it goes, going from a more thoughtful sci-fi film to a nice and violent action movie. But that's not a bad thing.

The alleged religiousity of the Matrix is up to you: ignore it or embrace it. I ignored it -- didn't even really notice it until other people pointed it out. Some people complained about the greenish tint, but that was done intentionally to make it seem like there was something wrong with the world; the sky is never blue for the same reason because blue is "too happy". I don't know. I don't really mind the green-ness.

Neo's cute, Morpheus is cool, Trinity rocks, Agent Smith is my favorite character aside from spoon-boy... , and Cypher...well, I can understand his point. And Mouse cracks me up.

All in all, wonderful movie. Just wish I could've seen in on the big screen...

Best quote: "There is no spoon."

Summary: The Best Movie I've seen in a long time
Review: I just saw this movie. I really like this movie, its fast pace action is wonderful. Don't even think about doing anything while you watch this movie!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A True Collector
Review: I just want to represent the other side of the coin from the frutsted reviewers on Amazon. As a collector of film memorabilia I was truly impressed and delighted with the Matrix (as well several other titles) that I have purchased as COLLECTOR SETS. The items (or collectibles) inside these DVD packages are NOT AVAILABLE in the regular retail market and if it was not for these limited edition collector sets one would spend a pretty penny (maybe even more than 5000) trying to find this type of property. The numbered Senitype contains an actual 35 mm film frame from the movie which (if you have ever looked on ebay) can sell for quite a bit more than the cost of the box sets. While some may scoff others relish.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Simply the best film I've ever seen
Review: I just wanted ot add to the reams of people who feel as I do that it is an amazing film. It was a refreshing change to standard action movies, it has something new and I think many films will seek to copy it's style in the years to come. If you've not seen it, then stop reading this, click on the BUY button and don't even leae your house until it arrives and you can watch it

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WOW! What a film-it is in a class by itself!
Review: I just watched The Matrix on video. I am a manager at a video store and one of the perks is seeing the films early. I was totally blown away by this film. The only regret I have is if I could of watched it on the big screen. There are certain movies that you just have to see on the big screen and this is for sure one of them. It is a film that right after I watched it, I was so amazed that I wanted to watch it again. The story line, acting and special effects were out of this world! A must see for any movie buff!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: OUTSTANDING
Review: I just wrote a long review, but i've erased it all. There is one thing i have to say about this movie: IT'S THE BEST MOVIE EVER(and that is the first time i've said that about any movie).

If you read any bad reviews, totally IGNORE them, i guarantee you will love it, and agree with me fully, if you don't, i'll personally refund you the money(i mean it!!)
