Rating: Summary: State of the Art Special EFX Review: A SUPER Action SI-FI Thriller with State of the Art Special Effects. This one will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. The DVD`s picture and sound are Five Star *****. The questions the plot brings up really makes you think. This Awsome Movie really ..... ROCKS!
Rating: Summary: PLOT HOLES! Review: An enjoyable movie, but damn! I hate glaring plot holes. For a thinking man, it just spoils the entertainment value.What was up with the phone thing? Why did they have to go across town to beam out? Why couldn't they just use their cellular phones? And why use humans for you-know-what? Why not use cows? They are bigger (more bio-matter) and dumber (the matrix then could consist of only bales of hay and those flies that suck the juice out of the corners of their eyes). Why choose small firearms, when they could've had RPG's or grenade launchers? How can they see so well when they wear those sunglasses all the time? How can it always be 1999 if the people are going about their normal lives? Do they wake up after New Year and start all over again? Or do they just get extremely wasted and forget the previous year happened? I could go on, but its 2am, and I just finished listening to the Matrix Soundtrack (which rocks!)
Rating: Summary: Great movie, so-so DVD Review: Loved the movie, loved the special effects, and I even liked the DVD extras. But what was up with the picture color? It looked faded - kind of like the whole movie was shot under fluorescent lights. I don't remember it looking that way in the theater, but maybe it did. Still - it is a kick-*** movie.
Rating: Summary: Great film making Review: Great blend of action, sci-fi, kung-fu, special visual effects and creativity. There's nothing like this movie because it's one of a kind. It's an original with style!! When it ended, I was begging for more. Hopefully they'll have a sequel.
Rating: Summary: Hong Kong action flicks, Japanese Anime, Cyberpunk Review: The movie strongly reflects its influences: Hong Kong kung fu films, Japanese Anime and Cyberpunk fiction. It's definately not your bland, boring Hollywood studio action movie. The synthesis of those above elements with a comic book look produces an unique and thrilling film. This is especially true to the viewers people unfamiliar to the above elements. Actually, it's almost a Hong Kong kung fu ('wire fu') film with a Hollywood budget. This is strongly reflected in the hand-to-hand combat, the shoot-outs and the liberal use of slow motion action (which has been transformed innovately into 'bullet time'). Want more of the same action? Go get some Hong Kong action movies!!
Rating: Summary: Don't buy if you have a Samsung player it dosen't work Review: Warner Bros screwed this one up big time. If you have a samsung player it will not load the DVD. And on some other machines the fight scenes repeat over and over. Rent it first to see if it works on your machine.
Rating: Summary: One of the best of the year Review: The Matrix is one of this years best movies.This movie has jaw dropping special effects that will amaze anyone.You won't know what the "Matrix" is until half way through but it is a great ride.
Rating: Summary: gggggrrrrrreeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaatttttttttt Review: This is by far one of best movies that Keanu Reeves has ever made. I think that the special effects were great. I could watch this movie over and over and I believe that any other viewer would agree with me.
Rating: Summary: A groundbreaking film Review: The number of features on the DVD make it an absolute must. Very few DVDs available right now take advantage of the possibilities. In terms of seeing what a DVD can do, this is definitely one to buy. The movie itself is stunning. "Bullet-time" scenes, and the speed of action make this a fun movie to watch. Kudos to the Wachowski brothers for taking the risk to make the story a reality.
Rating: Summary: The Best and Coolest movie ever made!!!!!!!!! Review: This is the best and coolest movie ever made. When it first came out I went to see it three times and would have gone back for more if I had the time. Now that it's out on video, I've been watching non-stop! The special effects are the best I've ever seen and Keanu Reeves.....well, what can I say, he rocks big time. Despite past efforts to get him to come back for sequels, I truly hope that they can get him to come back for the sequel of "The Matix".
