Summary: An excellent smorgasbord for the mind
Review: This is one of those movies that apparently inspires either great admiration or disappointment. I must thank the prior reviewers (especially those rating it relatively low) who have helped me place some of the techniques and ideas into perspective. However, I think "The Matrix" is more than a collection of martial arts effects applied to cyberspace - there are significant allusions to the concepts of free will, destiny, and even religious philosophy. As an example, anyone with even a little religious conviction of any kind has to believe, at some level, that this world is impermanent and (to a degree) illusory, kind of like the simulated world of the matrix; yet nihilism is not a way out because what occurs here has "real" consequences (remember Neo's bloody mouth after his first attempt in jumping?). It's not an original idea, but I think the combination of dialogue, effects, and setting along with the "deep" ideas within it make the movie compelling.

Summary: special effects glorified
Review: This is one of those rare movies which special effects actually made it what it is.It is a very watchable and interesting action adventure,scifi production.Almost constant action will keep one from falling asleep durning it.I was most impressed by the performance of Carrie-Ann Moss whom i could not recall seeing in much of anything before this movie.My favorite scene is at the very beginning where the agent is asking the Police why they disobeyed orders and sent officers in to get her before they arrived.The police officer said "I think my men can handle one little girl" and the agent replied "your men are already dead".I am not usually overly impressed with alot of the special effects used in movies today because they detract from the actors and the overall production value.However i am going to make an exception in this case.I was so impressed i am ordering the directors cut ,widescreen version.

Summary: They should pay you to watch this
Review: This is one terrible movie. I forced myself to sit until the end just in case something happened, but it was painful and it was fruitless. Loaded with style, but beyond that only a dull, half-thought-out storyline and boring special effects. I met one aficionado of leather who liked the film, but otherwise don't waste your time.

Summary: POWER, SPIRIT, AND THOUGHT PROVOKING......
Review: This is one that has it all. Power, the story & action that supports it is very high. Spirit, the characters & images just reach into your mind. Thought provoking, the "what if" that is sent from this movie is soooooo...oooo deep. To think even for a second that it was true. "woow!" This is a keeper Ladies & Gents.

Summary: The Matrix - DVD review
Review: This is perhaps the most incredible movie ever made when it comes to replay value. It literally keeps on getting better every time you watch it. The cast is perfectly chosen. Don't listen to what any says, Keanu is great in this movie. Same goes for Carie Ann Moss who is an absolute -sex god- as Trinity. Amazing special effects highlight this amazing story, which is an absolute thrill ride from start to finish. Immerse yourself in the world of the Matrix. You deserve it. You'll never regret it! As a DVD in particular this movie is probably as good as it gets, with amazing picture clarity and tonnes of hidden extras. A true -must have- in any one's collection. Don't bother reading any more reviews, just buy it. Trust me. Whoa!

Summary: Great Effects and Action
Review: This is probably one of the best movies that I have ever seen. The beauty of the plot gets you really thinking about 'reality'. The special effects keep you amazed. Finally, the action is a constant rollercoaster. Put this all together with a killer soundtrack, and you have one hell of a good time on a little disc.

Summary: Great movie and awesome sound effects!
Review: This is probably one of the best sci-fi movies of all times. And watching it in DVD makes it even better! The documentaries and making of the movie are a great plus in this DVD edition. The only complain I have is that it only comes in widescreen format. It would have been great if we had a choice of widescreen or fullscreen, like in other DVDs.
