Summary: This movie is the best for graphics and action!
Review: This is one of the best movies I have ever seen. There is non-stop action which super-exceeds action in most action movies. The grpahics are great and the look is futuristic. It is definately a movie to get if you like action or sci-fi.

Summary: The Matrix blows me away
Review: This is one of the best movies I've seen in a long time. I highly recommend it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome!
Review: This is one of the best movies I've seen! The plot is a realmind-blower and in-depth. You'll say to yourself: "no way"over and over again through-out. The Special Effects are great, and make the story more believable. My favorite movie of this genre up to this point, WAS Aliens, But now I can say, that has been surpassed!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Movie! Why is it R tho?
Review: This is one of the best movies of all time. But would someone please tell me why it is rated R. The thing on the box says "sci fi violence and brief language", sorry i missed the language. I have seen worse violence in many PG 13 movies.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best movie ever
Review: This is one of the best movies out there..

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Special Effects, Great Movie
Review: This is one of the best movies that I have seen in quite a while. While bending the mind with abstract concepts, it at the same time stays so close to reality. If you are a lover of special effects make sure to buy this movie, especially if you have a DVD player. The DVD version shows how some of the effects were done.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What is reallity?
Review: This is one of the best of the 90's. Very similar to another film called "Dark City", in the sense that it makes you question what is real. The special affects are mind blowing, especially if you get to experience it with high end video and audio. A must have for anyone who owns a dvd player. Great extra's on the disk as well.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Science Fiction!
Review: This is one of the best popcorn movies of the 90's but it is also extremely smart, has a great premise with an intelligent plot, nicely executed action sequences and breath-taking special effects. Keanu Reeves is great in the role of Neo, who carries the responsibility of disconnecting the human race from the Matrix. Laurence Fishburne is also great as Morpheus; Neo's mentor. Hugo Weaving also draws one of the best sci/fi villains as Agent Smith. It ultimately succeds in being an extremely entertaining and well done action/Sci-Fi movie. Only flaws are mis-casting in vital roles and a few plot-holes. From a scale of 1-10 I give this film an 8!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: All a Sci-Fi Movie should be... and MORE. Much More!
Review: This is one of the best sci fi movies you will ever see.. It can be viewed and appreciated on a dozen different levels. The story, editing, and cinematography are all stellar, and the special effects are second to none.

The storyline and plot are way out there... but the film is carried off well enough that the viewer has no problem suspending disbelief. But on a completely different level you can go back and watch the film just to check out the incredible camera work and editing. The sets and wardrobe combine to create a sort-of postmodern, neo-apocalyptic cool. The soundtrack is very well matched to the action/feel of the film. The fight scenes are nothing short of jaw-dropping, especially considering the fact that most include Lawrence Fishburn and/or Keanu Reaves neither of whom are world-class kung fu masters (There ARE a dozen or so real life Kung Fu masters in the credits so I'm sure there was some stand-in action going on... but it is very smoothly done). Fishburn is awesome as "Morpheus" and really carries a lot of the plot development... Reaves is a little "cardboard-ish" in places but has really come a long way from "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure". If you are looking for some escapist brainless action, see this. If you are looking to have your mind blown by an incredible story with fatastic effects, see this. If you are looking for a masterpiece of the cinematographer's art... see this... but above all SEE THIS MOVIE!

Oh, by the way... Is somebody on your list getting a dvd player from Santa? Get'em a copy of this movie so they can appreciate all that hi-res, hi-fi, super-mojo digital magic their new goodies can provide!
