Summary: orgasmic
Review: Personally speaking I can not stand sci-fi movies, but it has to be said this one had me on the edge of my seat. The action was brilliant, although I wasn't to sure about the acting. I would definetly watch this one over again and again, no questions asked. This film is what I call ENTERTAINMENT!

Summary: Fantastic and a MUST for every homosapiens.
Review: Personally, this is the best movie I have ever seen in years. The screenplay is above average, the effects, idea and everything are beyond words. Comparably with Star Wars, Phantom Menace, I would take on this movie anytime. Just some simple arithmetic, how many critical scenes does Star Wars have and how many does The Matrix has. Ratio? 1:3, 1:4? I would say 1:4. Although the effects on Star Wars are more complicated than Matrix, a lot of the efffects are kinda extra, doesn't serve it's purpose. Don't get me wrong here, Star Wars is good, compare to a whole lot of movies, it is just that the grossing on the Matrix kinda disappoint me. That's all. It could have done better. Go Wachowski brothers!!! p/s: MOVIE OF THE YEAR.

Summary: Yawn - trivializes the whole genre
Review: Philip K. Dick wrote better "the-world-you-think-is-real-isn't-really-real" stories in his sleep. The Matrix is the most one-dimensional treatment of this motif you could imagine. But by now every geek on the planet has grown to "love" this movie and embrace it like an anthem for a new generation. You mean we're REALLY not living in THIS world, but we're all living in pods on a human farm somewhere in New Jersey where our life essence is harvested from us by machines who have no source of energy since the sun is blocked out? To quote uberactor Keanu, "Whoa!" This movie could have had a better storyline (machines have no source of energy so they imprison and feed us to get some?????) and gotten past the most trivial non-twist in a movie since Nicholas Cage decided to just go ahead and drink himself to death in Leaving Las Vegas. How about... maybe the pod-world also isn't real, maybe there's something really real beyond that? How about maybe the pod-world is the fake world and the supposedly dream-induced world is real after all? How about maybe SOME suspense worthy of a genuine story? The motifs of questioning what is real (courtesy of PKD and the Gnostics before him) have been turned into a trivial MTV gameshow kung fu techno-action movie, a Spongebob Squarepants cartoon about the pursuit to understand the nature of reality as "not what it seems". Never mind, who cares, the geeks are all already lined up outside theatres in full costume to catch the opening of the SECOND dumbed-down sequel. Whoa...

Summary: Refreshing anti-Utopian Sci-fi Tour de Force...
Review: Philosophical and action-packed: Alice-in-Wonderland on Terminator steroids meets Jackie Chan in a dark alley with the Men in Black! This cyber-punk nightmare is a refreshingly complex twist on classic anti-Utopian science fiction...cool and deep, this flick has it all...I just can't wait for the sequel! - LL in HK

Summary: One of the worst movies I have ever seen
Review: Please save your money, don't buy this movie. The story line has great potential, but the movie falls short of expections. If you have seen the previews of this movie, you have already seen the over rated graphics. The most impressive effects are done better in the Gap ads. The dialog tries to be futuristic and intellectual, it's so bad it comical The makers of this flick should hang their heads in shame.

Summary: Best Sci-Fi of the decade
Review: Pleases and intrigues both the mind and the eyes. The combination of action, sci-fi, computers, and mind-games makes this the best Science Fiction film I have seen from this decade. Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace made more money, but The Matrix is the best movie this year for fans if Science Fiction. I am buying a DVD player JUST FOR THIS MOVIE!!

Summary: Buckle up!
Review: Pop this movie into your VCR or DVD and be prepared for a full-tilt adrenaline rush! The special effects are absolutely mind-blowing, especialy the Martial Arts Sequences and the entire rescue mission. The cast is top flight, Keanu Reeve's chararacter's transformation from naive hacker to saviro of the world is played to a T and Laurence Fishburne plays Morpheous with a mix of slickness and substance that only he can do. Oh yeah--there's a plot to this too. Borrowing from everything fron Japanese Anime to Christianity, the movie creates a world that is while seemingly improbable, could actually happen. I admit the movie is violent--but think of it as a living "Comic Book"
