Summary: A "coming of age" fairy tale
Review: The Matrix is a fairy tale of the "coming of age" of the neo-savior hero set within the science fiction genre. It addresses issues such as: Truth is not always reality, and reality is not always truth; humans as the "alien-other'; and the archetype of death and resurrection through the spiritual love of femininity as compassion. An excellent study of archetypes through cross-genre structure. A cult-film for the 90s, and an excellent candidate for the study of film criticism.

Summary: The ultimate 3rd millenium movie
Review: The Matrix is a fantastic movie, but beyond the entertaining aspect, it is one of the first movies to completly integrate the networked world that reality is quickly becoming. It refers to so many aspects of the "computer" culture that you realise how much networks & machines are really part of our everyday life now. In that sense, it is not really a Sci-Fi flick, there is no space / time travel, there are no composite gama rays/laser guns or technologicaly advanced aliens ... instead, there are networks, artificial intelligence, computer games and other concepts we are alreday familiar with. That is why this movie has become a classic for me. Plus you get all that amazing action, mind blowing special effects, great music, mythical themes and everything to make this movie the movie of the 3rd millenium.

Summary: Unusually provocative
Review: The Matrix is a gem of a movie. I experienced it as a highly emotionaly and brilliantly choreographed science fiction fantasy. The Wacowski brothers are talented directors. Many of the action sequences are hard to forget due to their John Woo-esque poetic quality.

Summary: DVD Terrific
Review: The Matrix is a good movie with great special effects. The DVD is probably one of the top ten on the market today. It has plenty of extras and the movie itself looks amazing. It is a hell of a buy for under $20 and I highly recommend. You won't be disappionted.

Summary: Great Movie
Review: The Matrix is a great movie and is extremely well done, however, I experienced that it wouldn't run on all DVD players. I took it back in exchange for the VHS version but was greatly disappointed that the DVD wouldn't run on my player. The movie is great though and well worth the money, just be sure that it will run on your machine before you buy it.

Summary: My Favorite Movie
Review: The Matrix is a great movie in all aspects. The action sequences are intense, and the special effects are amazing. But The Matrix is more than just guns, Kung Fu, and CGI. The story is very clever and thought-provoking. It reminds us that reality is more than just the world we live in. It also reminds us to never quit in the face of despair, to strive for excellence, and to seek the truth. About the rating: Call me a square, but I usually don't see R-rated movies. However, fear not. I can't think of a PG-13 movie I've seen that is less offensive than The Matrix. It is quite violent but is not gory or graphic. The language is milder than most PG-13s. While I would not suggest it for children because of the sustained gunfighting scenes, I see no reason for the R rating. ...
