Summary: What is the Matrix?
Review: Think that the reality is a dream - this thought follows Thomas Anderson (Keanu Reeves). Thomas lives in a double life, at day he's a employee at a big computer company, at night he's the hacker Neo. A day Neo wakes up by someone who is contacing him via the computer. Right after that Neo gets arrested. Agent Smith looks at the young computer expert as a treath, and Neo gets even more confused. First when he meets Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne), the picture becomes clearer. I love this movie becouse of the amazing special effects and the really good story. You just have to see this movie! I would recommend buying the movie on DVD that is if you got a DVD. Becouse there you can watch Interviews and documentary about the special effects.Very Best Regards Yngve Elde

Summary: Genious
Review: This 1999 movie, the Matrix, would be in the top two of my favorite movies. The special effects were great for example a time when Neo, the main character is shot by 5 bullets. He sticks out a hand and the bullets drop. The actors and actresses were also great. Its hard to imagine The Matrix II will be better than the Matrix I. As a matter of fact its hard to imagine any movie being better than this. The main plot is about people in a dream world of the truth while the people like us do not believe our dreams are nothing but our thoughts. You really start to believe in your dreams like they our real. This movie is given the "R" rating. When you watch this movie you will think in should have been rated PG-13. I truely believe it was right to have the R rating. This is because the movie is extremely hard to understand. My 7 year old brother saw half of this movie. He loved the effects but did not understand the plot at all. The ages for this movie I would say is mature 8 year olds and up. If you like science fiction see this motion picture.

Summary: Good, but stick to the Original
Review: This a descent movie, and one of the few "remakes" that actually gives the original a run for its money. This movie is obviously based on "Dark City." "The Matrix" has more special effects than "Dark City," but the plot is basically the same. A man learns that the life he has known is a farce and that the entire world is being run by a higher sentenance. As he learns more and more about the world, he is being hunted by those that want to keep the status quo. While "The Matrix" stands on its own two legs, so to speak, the legs are different than the original. "The Matrix" leans heavily on spectacular effects and a decent plot, "Dark City" relies on strong acting and plotline. "The Matrix" is a great movie that you don't have to think very hard to follow, and "Dark City" is a superb movie you have to pay close attention to in order to follow. I recommend both with "Dark City ranked as a "5."

Summary: An instant classic
Review: This action maked movie takes a different perspecive on our life. They say we were taken over by machines and now we are plugged in the matrix to keep us happy and to power the machines. Neo was freed from the Matrix and is supposedly "The One". He is the one who can battle the machines and free the human race. Though the movie ends where you find out that he actually is the one. A great movie that needs a sequal. I highly reccommend this to anybody who doesn't have it yet. If you have a DVD player this is a must have.

Summary: The best sci-fi movie of 1999 by far
Review: This action packed movie is one of the best sci-fi movies to come along. A smart theme, a great storyline, incredible graphics, one of the best soundtracs since Pi (3.14). The acting is a little bit sloppy, but in any other aspect, this is THE movie of the year.

Summary: Open your mind...
Review: This ain't a Kung-Fu movie. The fighting in the movie is only one part of bigger picture (no pun intended). It's the best movie yet that prompts people to open up their minds and start questioning whats really around them, metaphorically speaking of course...;) The best thing about this movie is that I never got bored, and that's saying a lot. It's a very interesting story with great effects and photography. I'd also recommend picking up the soundtrack...it's one of the best!

Summary: Awesome!
Review: This blew me away. The final confrontation with the agents in which neo finally masters his abilities is one of those special movie moments you remember for a long long time. If you really liked the ideas in this film, you will DEFINETLY want to learn about lucid dreaming, which also allows you to explore a different reality, just like the matrix does. Amazon.com has several books on this topic.

Summary: High art in the modest guise of pompous sci-fi action flick
Review: This brilliantly crafted movie, while being one of the best and most original action films ever made, touches on important metaphysical questions: How is our destiny determined? What does our success require? How can we each control our own life? Should we concern ourselves with others' expectations of us? Are things really what they seem to be? Maybe everything you know is wrong. Or at least some of it. This movie may get you to think, or else only to have an intensely exciting and fun 2 hours and 16 minutes.

Summary: Are you living in a dream?
Review: This by far is one of the best movies to come out of Hollywood in a very long time. I love it! When it was in theatres my sister and I went to see it, not once, not twice but Four Times! When it was released on video and DVD we knew we had to get it, and believe it or not, we got it on both formats. (We have DVD on our home computer but since the screen is small we also wanted a version we could watch on our large screen T.V. Oh well!) We are definitely hooked on the Matrix. It is action packed and it has a story that leaves you scratching your head and wondering "What if?" long after you see the film. Keanu Reeves was made for the Matrix or perhaps the Matrix was made for Keanu, whatever, the point is that he is perfect in his role as the reluctant hero Neo. Carrie-Anne Moss as Trinity is the perfect female role model, she's beautiful, she's feminine, she knows how to take command of a situation and she kicks major you-know-what. The more times I see this movie, the more I grow to love it and the more questions I have. The Wachowski brothers have outdone themselves with this gem of a film and I can hardly wait for parts 2 and 3 to come out in theaters. If you don't own a DVD then you must run out and get one. Although it is OK to see it on video, the DVD version has so much more to offer and the special effects were meant to be seen on a digital format. My only problem, I wish I had a DVD for my T.V.

Summary: ** THE 1, THE ONLY, THE ORIGINAL ! **
Review: This by far is one of the top movies of all time. The second and 3rd installments don't even come close to the first Matrix. Worth buying ... you could watch this movie over and over again and not get bored. Everytime it comes on tv I watch it. Even my baby boomer mother was blown away by this film and all she likes are old westerns! BUY THIS, OWN THIS AND FREE YOUR MIND!
