Summary: An Action Packed Intelligent Movie with WONDERFUL Effects
Review: The Matrix is an action packed movie filled with exciting special effects that you just have to see with your own eyes. Its plot is intelligent and original. It'll make your imagination go wild. I would reccomend this movie to teenagers, and action lovers. Its not for young kids because there is violence in it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A spetacular vision that will make your head explode.
Review: The Matrix is an action packed sci-fi epic that has all the elements of a graphic comic novel jammed with incredible visual effects and the most spetacular action scenes to hit the screen since Terminator 2:Judgment Day.This is one of my all time favorites due to the fact that the film is packed with a cast that we can cheer for.Keanu Reeves plays the role of Neo who discovers one day the world he is living in is an illusion controled by machines that have taken over the world to enslave mankind.Neo meets Morpheous played by Laurence Fishburne who believes Neo has been chosen to save humanity from The Matrix.Carrie Ann Moss is Trinity.Hugo Weaving makes a very impressive villain known as Agent Smith.The Matrix really packs a mean punch for those who really love kung fu films ranging from Bruce Lee to Jackie Chan.From Jackie Chan to Jet Li.The film is also my favorite because I think it pays respect to the John Woo films.What makes the film work so good is Keanu Reeves.Imagine how The Matrix would have turned out if Arnold Schwarnegger or Steven Seagal played Neo.Would I still have seen The Matrix?Yes I would,but Schwarnegger is not right for the role of Neo.Steven Segal...forget it.Keanu Reeves is one of the most talented actors around today.The Matrix fits Keanu as tight as an iron glove which is why I think Keanu Reeves is the perfect choice for this movie.I have seen this film over 35 times.28 in the movie theaters.The idea for The Matrix made me wonder how much of an imagination I have in the back of my head.Believe me,it's alot.The Matrix is truly the kind of film that will make you explode.Definetly worth seeing.

Summary: Awesome! A MUST to have, the first DVD for the 21st century!
Review: The Matrix is an amazing movie, with effects perfectly combined with action and superb storytelling. A mindbender for those who lack out-of-the-box thinking. A real hit, which probably will raise a generation of movies. I had a great time watching the DVD extras, storyboards, screenplay, interviews...It's all there and waiting everyone to take a sneak peak inside. Get it and have a LOT of FUN!

Summary: The Matrix
Review: The Matrix is an amazing movie. It has groundbreaking special effects as well as an interesting plot and good acting. The kung-fu scenes are amazing, and the actual actors/actresses were trained by Hong-Kong choreographers to do almost all of their own stunts. It has remained my all-time favorite movie for almost 3 years now. If you like good action, sci-fi, or just good movies in general, you will love this movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best Movie Ever

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wow, change your way of thinking
Review: The Matrix is an awesome movie. It made me change the way I looked at things. It is soo good that I saw it in the theatre at least 4 times. There is good eye candy for all plus an intriguing plot that makes you have to watch it more than once. Every time you watch you will find a new thing in the Matrix.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great SF
Review: The matrix is an effective and interesting film. The reason for this is that it is succesful at two levels. The first level is that it creates an artificial world which it gradually explains. This world is based on an original view of the future and is a plausable basis for an action film. The second level is that this is an effective action adventure film set in that world. The dialogue is effective for an action film and not embarrasing. The plot is taunt and gets you in.

The roles are all played well and both Keanu Reeves and the female lead are great. The action scenes are tremendous and you can watch them again and again.

This film will no doubt have a number of follow ups and make the cast and director a lot of money. This they richly deserve.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the post-tech classics
Review: The Matrix is an entangling ride that goes down to the deepest of our fears: The fear that our lives are nothing but lies, anything but real. In the pursuit of creating a concept of fate (as opposed to our lives being one big controlled experiment by our own creations -- darn it's hard to do a review without giving out too much information -- :)), a seemingly ordinary hacker with some extraordinary powers goes on a quest to reclaim humanity.. Keanu plays one of his better roles, Laurence is absolutely marvelous as Morpheus and Carrie-Ann gives the impression that she reallly is in the movie business to stay.. Get it.. NOW :)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good Graphics, good story line, good acting and a lot more
Review: The Matrix is an excellent film. The graphics are just out of there and the acting performed by the actors is very good but what i can't get over is how excellent the story is. I mean whoever came up with the story must be a genius! The story is a little hard to follow at the beginning but it all falls into place if you follow the story carefully. i've seen many movies but this is without a doubt one of the best movies i've ever seen!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Movie's Great...This Package, Not So
Review: The Matrix is an excellent movie that combines science fiction, shoot-em-up action, and philosophical questions about the nature of Reality. If you are plugged in to a computer, and that computer presents you with a reality that is completely indistinguishable from your own, is it any less real?

This movie has exceptional special effects, beautiful cinematography, an excellent soundtrack, well-crafted dialogue, and respectable acting. Keanu Reeves may be a lousy actor, but I think that the Matrix is probably his best performance to date.

The Platinum Limited Edition isn't really worth the extra money unless you're an absolute, die-hard, take the red pill, freak. I wish I had known that before ordering this product. It comes in a box about as thick as an encyclopedia, and is fairly large, so it won't fit on the shelf with the rest of your DVDs. Opening it up, I was rather disappointed -- most of the volume is filled with a cheap plastic tray that contains a celluloid clip of the film with a blown-up photo (decent, but nothing fantastic), a few postcard-sized stills from the movie, and a copy of the normal DVD in a normal case. Nothing fantastic. For this money, I was expecting a DVD with DTS sound, alternate angles, deleted scenes, etc., but just got the same old Matrix disc. A major drag.

Do yourself a favor. Buy the basic copy.
