Summary: ESSENTIAL
Review: What can you write about the Matrix that hasn't been written? Hands down one of the most innovate and original movies to come along in a long time. The reason this movie has taken DVD by storm is because other movies just aren't original any more. On top of that, this movie is perhaps the most essential DVD for demoing a home theater. The computer-aided action and filming is incredible. While the movie is rated R (which kept me from seeing it for so long) I couldn't find anything in it to justify that. There are some tough fight scenes (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles had fight scenes too) but the language and fighting combined justify a PG-13 at the most. I would assume they got it rated R so that more people would be interested in seeing it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THE BEST MOVIE IN THE WHOLE WORLD!
Review: I've seen this movie countless times , around 20 or so. I know ever line and sence. If this is your first time to see it watch the special effects the first time but pay close attention the the story line or you could get lost. Don't worry the special effects are reason enough to buy this movie it does have something for ever over the age of 10 or there about.(if aloud to see R). A must buy for anyone and look for the next two "the Matrix reloaded and Matrix revolution" both come out in 'I think' 2003 or late 2002. GET THEM All!

Summary: One Of The Best Movies Ever!
Review: If there is any possible chance that you haven't seen this spectacular action film yet, you are seriously missing something.
A Sci-Fi Fantasy, Action film that features several real-to-life points, The Matrix is THE Best Film Of 1999! Forget The Phantom Menace, Goodbye American Beauty! If there was any justice in the world The Matrix should have won Best Picture of 1999!
Simply Put, The Matrix Rocks!

Summary: A New Layer Revealed in Each Viewing
Review: The Matrix is not a movie that you can completely understand after one viewing. It has so many layers that you'll discover something new each time you watch it. Often ignored is it's strong connection to the gnostic worldview: Perhaps we live in a world that's only a dream and need a savior to show us what is real. That's what Neo discovers in his search for the meaning of the Matrix. He discovers that he and the rest of humanity have been plugged into the Matrix and have been dreaming rather than truly living. The question is, "Is Neo "the one" that can lead them from their computer-generated dream world to the real world?" The movie is entertaining without an understanding of Gnosticism, but is absolutely intriguing with insight into story within the story.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This was the best movie I ever saw!!
Review: This is a really cool movie about a guy named Neo that's offered to go into "The Matrix." He becomes on of their strongest fighters. He ends up having to save their leader Morphius with the help of one of his fellow Matrix people Trinity. I'm not going to give it away but if you like action/fighting movies you'll love this one!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I was overwhelmed
Review: It's been awhile since I've seen the movie so I'm not going to comment on specifics. My review is for someone who hasn't seen this movie, if there is anyone.

This movie overwhelmed me in how awesome it was. I hadn't read hardly any reviews but had seen the commercials that asked "What is the Matrix." So, watching the movie, I was curious. Then I saw that his wasn't just another average science fiction movie. The special effects were awesome, the story was creative and thought provoking, and the acting was pretty good.

This ground breaking movie totally blew away my expectations and that's hard to do these days when it is so easy to find out everything about movies before they even come out.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great film for your eyes and mind.
Review: This is a very fun film, that mends action with philosophical concepts and religious symbolism. The film is fun to watch just because it has some very cool action scenes that are pleasurable for the eyes. Yet there exists a more intellectual depth for your mind. What makes it great is that, upon viewing it multiple times, you get more out of it. You discover different themes and messages, every person gets something different out of it. There are many interpretations and views you can arrive at.

The characters are great, the best being Morpheus and Agent Smith. The character of Neo as a doubting Thomas-Christ figure is played out well. And it is very pleasing to see a female action star that is not put on the screen just to showcase sexuality, but who is tough and can take care of herself.

Watch for the "Night of the Lepus" clip, and BULLET TIME special effects (that every new movie copies). 5 Stars. Check it out.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Hyped?
Review: This is a very good movie which also has a very intruiging plot. But it really is not the best of them out there. It sets some very interesting points to think about but don't take it too serious, if you do you'll spoil the whole movie because when you are using some serious logic you'll find a lot of flaws.

However; this movie is still very entertaining and the DVD is one of the best around. A very interesting feature of this DVD is 'follow the white rabbit'. Simply watch the movie as you normally would but whenever you see a white rabbit appear you can quickly press a button and you will be presented with an in depth explanation of how they made the scene you just saw.

Now the "rumour" circuit has it that there is a sequal coming, which also means that the price of the first will drop. This is the best time to get the movie.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good
Review: This is a pretty good movie but there are a few loose ends that need to be tied. The idea of the movie was very original and brilliant. If you watch it you will be amazed at the reallity that is behind it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I think anyone who gives this movie 4 starsor less is insane
Review: This movie is great. Great effects, great action, great acting, great cast,great EVERYTHING. The DVD left me speechless. But I did manage to let out one word, "SWEEEEEET" Keanu Reeves is my hero.
