Summary: AWE INSPIRING
Review: NOT ONLY WILL THIS MOVIE ASTOUND THE VIEWER, BUT ALL OTHER ACTION DIRECTORS AROUND. THE MIND-PAUSING SPECIAL EFFECTS MAKE THIS MOVIE ONE OF THE GREATEST PRODUCTIONS EVER. I WOULD SUGGEST GETTING THE VHS COLLECTORS EDITION TAPE. IT HAS A VERY AMUSING "MAKING OF THE MATRIX" AT THE END AFTER ALL OF THE CREDITS. IT INCLUDES "BULLIT TIME" (WHICH I WON'T REVEAL, ~~YOU HAVE TO SEE IT FOR YOURSELF~~) AND MANY OTHER EFFECTS THAT YOU WILL NOT WANT TO MISS.

Summary: sf from the Bible
Review: Not the most original of basic story concepts, of course. After all, SFfilm-as-Christian-allegory has been common since The Day the Earth Stood Still. Admittedly, the Bible has inspired as much SF moviemaking as any other ancient myth: Terminator 1 was, in its simplest terms, the Annunciation; Terminator 2, the Flight to Egypt.But, debates about originality notwithstanding, this is a well-crafted film and a great thrill ride. The W Bros. and their editors have successfully enhanced a tight and taut script: acting, cinematography, choreography, special effects, and sound track are maintained in complete balance. Each aspect of the film contributes to its overall effectiveness. Just enough characterization, just enough acting, etc. to propel the film along at an appropriate pace. Don't bother thinking about the existentialist aspect of the plot--it's only window dressing for this exciting version of the Christ story. And it will go down as the apotheosis of Herr Reeves acting career, just as T1 was for Arnie, an actor of similar range and density.

Summary: Pure Trash
Review: Not worth your time. Most of the fighting moves just aren't possible. Much too fictional.

Summary: a waste of time
Review: Nothing but special effects. Awful acting, nonsense story. I Couldn't even make it through the whole movie it was so bad. These five stars reviewers are playing too many video games. I'd have to take a bribe to sit and look at this garbage again.

Summary: Please, let us reflect on its greatness
Review: Now i've read most of the comments left by other patrons, to those who would call it meaningless "eye-candy", your wrong. To those who would say that its a rip off of Total Recall or Blade Runner, your wrong. It is a whole original, in fact the most original plot to be put out by a major picture studio in years. The cinematography in this film is exceptional, Lawrence Fishborne's voice is more striking than that of Darth Vadar, to those who say its confusing, go back to school. As for myself i have had the DVD for a good week and i am constantly getting requests to see it again and again. I do believe that at this moment it is my favorite movie, up there with films such as Star Wars and 2001&2010 (though the books ARE better, sorry Stanely) Please if you haven't seen it buy it, steal it, do what ever you need to do to see this movie. Oh yeah and make sure to turn the lights way down and the volume way up, its better that way.

Summary: Really, I love this movie. It's the best thing ever made.
Review: Now let's take time out to praise the genius of "The Matrix." Really, this movie must be a work of genius because the characters have cool NAMES like Trinity, Neo, and Morpheus (*swooning*). This movie must be the best movie ever made because when people shoot guns, the bullets can go in slow motion and leave TRAILS (*gasping*). This movie must be 'more than meets the eye' because it plays out like an expensive videogame (*cool!*). This movie has to be a treat for all those 'intellectuals' out there, who think sub-Shakespearian monologues sandwiched in between pointless FX scenes make for an intelligent film (*stimulated*). And of course, keeping up with style, this movie must be GREAT because the characters wear very chic black leather outfits! These are all the makings of an American classic, if you ask me. Please, people...if you need something to open up the neural floodgates, go with "Fight Club," a movie that's truly original and loaded with ideas and doesn't hide behind smoke and mirrors to pass itself off as an intelligent film.

Summary: One of the best/original movies I have seen in a long time!
Review: Now that all 3 movies in the Trilogy are out. I will review each one. This Matrix is the first installment in the Matrix trilogy. It focuses on Thomas Anderson aka NEO. Neo is a software developer by day, computer hacker by night. He knows that there is something wrong with the world but can't quite figure out what it is. When he meets Morpheus he decides he wants to know what the Matrix really is. After Neo finds out he does not believe his eyes. Towards the middle of the movie, NEO finally comes to grips that the Matrix is just a computer program that humans are plugged into while the machines live off of them. After knowing this NEO slowly discovers that he can do superhuman things while in the Matrix because the Matrix world is not "real". Many of you already seen the movie so there is no need for me to go into much more detail about the plot. But I will say that this is one of the best movies I have seen in a long long time. After figuring out what the Matrix really was, I was blown away by the original storyline, and I began to think to myself "what if the world I'm living in is like the Matrix?" I have seen this movie at least 20 times, and I never get tired of it. The speical effects and fighting scenes are nothing short of spectatcular. This is a must have title for your collection. I can't believe anyone would give this movie anything less than 4 stars. Its not your average movie and it does require some thinking to see what is actually going on. If one does not really understand the storyline, then they will write this movie off as another action flick when in reality this movie goes so much deeper. 5 stars in my book!

Summary: MY ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE MOVIE!
Review: Now this is something I would be totally thrilled to be associated with... I absolutely loved it. What a concept, great story line, great cast. Impressive special affects. I've bought it and I watch it over and over again. Of coarse I have my favourite scenes. 'Neo and Morpheaus fighting' and 'The Lobby' scene. Keanu... XXX! Hugo is fantastic in this, does alot for the character. Can't wait till the next two come out!
