Rating: Summary: Very high quality science fiction flick!!!!! Review: Andy and Larry have delivered a rocksock cyberpunk film that is a one of a kind rollercoaster ride. The effects were astounding and the storyline was very crafty. I was shocked to learn that these were the same brothers who wrote the Stallone/Banderas flick ASSASSINS. There are several more things I would like to say to the viewer who felt really sorry for the people who own a Macintosh: 1. I have one. 2. I have a program called VIRTUAL PC which runs Windows 98 on the Macintosh. 3. I played THE MATRIX on the computer using Windows 98 and was also able to access the PC features. Might I add that they worked very well? Still feeling sorry for me?
Rating: Summary: What a Waste of a Great Story. Review: The basic story and the effects of "Matrix" are as good as Hollywood is capable of, but Keanu Reeves provides yet another dramatically bland performance. Not as bad as his monotonous destruction of Speed, he nevertheless serves to prevent a great idea from becoming a truly great film. Watch "12 Monkees" and the performances of Bruce Willis and Brad Pitt, then compare to Reeves' pitiful work --- it's sad. Even Fishburn, who's capable of great depth and charisma, appears one-dimensional and miscast. Must be the result of lackluster direction. The movie is worth seeing however, as the concept and the effects are unique and highly watchable.
Rating: Summary: A Jewel! Review: The Matrix is probably one of the most clever, original, entertaining and well directed movies of the last decade. All the FXs are appropriated and go hand in hand with the great plot. A must see. Absolutely.
Rating: Summary: Never have I seen such ACTION in a fight sequence-AWESOME!!! Review: The special effects in this movie were BRILLIANT! I loved how they added that extra oomph to otherwise dreary kung fu action. Keanu Reeves RULES!!
Rating: Summary: WHAT A MOVIEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! Review: If you haven't seen this movie, please run - don't walk to get it. Over the weekend, we watched it (too many to count) times!!!!! Couldn't get enough. Special effects - THE BEST.
Rating: Summary: Not for mindless morons Review: To set the record straight, There is a very deep plot to this film but you have to be above average intelligence to understand it to its full capacity
Rating: Summary: Incredible, best sci-fi I've seen Review: Great story, excellent music, believable acting (a hard thing to find in many recent sci-fi movies). This is by far the most impressive sci-fi movie I've ever seen. The story could probably be made into several sequels without getting bad, because it's so deep. Excellent choice!
Rating: Summary: The best movie in years!!!! Review: The Matrix is hands down the best movie to see this year. The special effects are amazing and the story line is unmatched. If you like movies that throw twists at you you will love this movie. There are not enough stars to give this one!!!
Rating: Summary: The best movie in the world Review: I have watched this movie so many times and I can't get enough of it. All of the special effects just blew me away. I love to watch it over and over again. I thnk that everyone should try to get it and watch it.
Rating: Summary: Best Thriller of 1999 Review: I saw this movie and i thought: "DAMN" Thats pretty much it. And if I say DAMN about a movie, i mean it's GOOD. In one word, the movie is DAMN
