Summary: Buy This Movie!!!!
Review: Q. "The Matrix" is:
A. Intense.
B. Dazzling.
C. Entertaining.
D. Thrilling.
E. Awesome.
F. All of the above.A. The answer is a most emphatic F. An everyday joe (Keanu Reeves) leads a double life. By day, he is a "program writer for a respectable software company"; by night, he lives in a squalid-looking apartment and is a hacker who goes by the alias "Neo". He has a feeling that something is wrong with the world, and is obsessed with a man who is only known as Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne). One of his assistants, Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss) arranges for Neo to meet Morpheus. At the meeting, Morpheus tells Neo the facts about the world. This movie is definitely a movie for guys. Bombs, martial arts, guns, and even an Old West-style shootout in a subway station. One minor quirk about it: while the movie itself was shot in Sydney, Australia, the intersections that the various characters are told to go (Wells & Lake, Franklin & Erie, e.g.) are in Chicago.

Summary: would have been spectacular with some attention to detail.
Review: quick question. what do you call a group of people who believe there way is better and then go around killing people indiscriminently to prove it...........if you said terrorist you would be correct.That was one of the many flaws in this movie that kept me from really getting into it. after all morpheus admits "we don't know what happened we can only assume humans blocked out the sun to kill the computers" (yet what if the sun was fading so in order to survive humans put themselves into this reality?)it beats eating slop from a tube and having no sun. without a real antagonist for this story NEO and his crew are just terrorist. But no big it is only a movie.
as far as the subject matter it was presented in a flashier way but the story is not entirely unique if you have seen "THEY LIVE,TOTAL RECALL,ABRE LOS OJOS or several episodes of the "outer limits" and so on you have seen this idea before.
Don't get me wrong i enjoyed this movie somewhat...ironically it was all the various flaws in the logic of this movie that caused me to analyze it... thus enjoy it.
it is mainly the lack of attention to detail that i can't give this five stars i kept saying to my self "this would be really good if only..."
so in closing i give this movie a generous 3 stars because i did enjoy it even though i thought it only deserved two stars

Summary: What is the Matrix?
Review: Quite simply one of the best films ever made. First, there is the surface of the film. The story follows the classic hero's journey as described by the mythologist Joseph Campbell. Neo goes from his mundane every-day world, answers the call to adventure, meets his mentor and friends, receives his training, and eventually goes on to become a true hero. For those unfarmiliar with Campbell's work, this is a story parallelling Luke's journey in the original Star Wars. As is typical for a mythological story, the characters are mostly archetypes. Neo (played by Keanu Reeves) is the would-be hero, Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) is Neo's mentor, and Agent Smith (Hugo Weaving) is the shadow/villain. The acting and character development are as sound as they are for any film of this type. And specifically, Smith's character/performance in this film is often put on par or close with that of Darth Vader in the original Star Wars. Beyond that lays the visuals of this film. And what stunning visuals they are! Everything from what the characters wear to the scene transitions have a noticible level of meticulousness about them. The special effects are often touted, which they were revolutionary, and earned the Matrix the SFX Oscar. But beyond that, the Matrix just screams "style". Accompanying that is the sound. Which rightfully received the Oscar for best sound effects editing and best sound. Both of which really help to bring you into the world of the Matrix, and have a unique style of their own. Last of the surface elements are the sci-fi concepts. Which perhaps makes the Matrix unaccessible to some people. Among them includes robots, virtual reality, artificial intelligence, fusion, and the state of the future. To that all I can say is that this is a film, and not a book. And so it's not really an exploration of science-fiction. If you can just run with what the sci-fi that is given, I think you'll find this is an uncommonly good film. Second and more importantly, are the deeper elements. The original Matrix is an exploration into the nature of reality. And perticularly in the third act when Neo re-enters the matrix, the film takes on the form of a buddhist parable... with each scene further unwrapping the onion. For those who can see the matrix for its symbolic level outside of the story, I believe this film can be as rewarding as a film can get. Third and last is the DVD itself. The "Widescreen Review" sort of says it all. 5 out of 5 for picture quality and 5 out of 5 for sound quality. That alone should guarantee this DVD as an essential element in any collection. Add to that a commentary track and a feature exploring the special effects techniques... and you have one disc well worth it.

Summary: In an age of stunning special effects this one takes it home
Review: Recent Hollywood movies specifically Sci-Fi have lots of special effects combined with a plot that is often too futuristic to be believed. The nice thing about the Matrix is that the plot is not so far off the beaten path to be unreasonable. Combined with some of the best action sequences around meshed with the best special effects around make this a new benchmark in the Sci-Fi-Action genre. As far as the matrix making fun of so-called samurai-movies...
