Summary: This movie can and will change your perspective on life
Review: This movie, if viewed from a completely sociological point of view, will give you a whole new perspective of the way you view things. Since seeing this movie for the first time, I have picked every detail of this apart numerous times (and have spent a large majority of money doing it). The whole premise of a world where all of our thoughts and actions are lies is one that isn't too far from the truth. Maybe we are all really stuck in the Matrix, and this is the undergrounds attempt at contact of the masses. No one can KNOW what the Matrix is, they have to see it for themselves... Words to live by. If it comes down to this movie and that "Star Wars" movie, play frisby with the Phantom Menace, it does the world more justice.

Summary: The matrix: Brilliant movie
Review: This really is a great movie. Though I can imagine some people might find it hard to keep track of what is happening. Also the subtitles and the wide-screen leave you with a dissatisfied feeling. But apart from that it's marvellous to just watch the movie for its outstanding special effects! It keeps you guessing how they did those special effects with slow passing bullets and not screwing up character movement by doing that. Fortunately, a nice extra of this DVD-version is probably that you get to know how they did these special effects. Take my advise and buy this movie on DVD. You won't regret it!

Summary: Great effects, good idea, hoorid characters...
Review: This review contains spoilers...
Why, oh why, is this movie so lauded? I have tried to enjoy it, and on each viewing, it gets worse. Take a clever idea (the world as we know it built by machines), add special effects (in '99 they were jaw dropping), but give no character life, of humanity, or any reason to like them, or root for them, or CARE! Did Neo have ANY spark of anything that didn't just "happen"? Was there anything about his "life" that lifted him? Why, possibly, would Trinity fall for him...I guess the same reason in real life; he's attractive. That's it. Good science fiction, good fantasy explores mans humanity, how human qualities eventually transcend technology. Neo was "the One". Because of that, everything was fed to him. We were shown almost nothing about him, yet he is "the one". And frankly; the machines were right. Man IS a virus; there is NOTHING about the remaining "humans" that tells us this will change. Personally; I was rooting for the machines. At least they offered some joy.

Summary: You have to be a real fan to buy the Limited Edition!
Review: This review is referring to the Limited Edition Collector's Set: Don't get me wrong: The movie gets 5 stars and even more, but this edition gets 4 stars or less... WHY? Here's why: Why do I need to pay 60$ for the DVD + the soundtrack? Because all the rest is junk!: A poster, some cards, a box, and a film!

Summary: A Stroke of Genius in the Machinery of Hollywood
Review: This review will not include any direct details about the movie, just in case you, good reader, happen to be one of the four people on the planet who haven't already seen it."The Matrix" is a coop. The Wachowski brothers have managed to infuse a great, up-to-date sci-fi storyline with touches of Zen Buddhism, Taoism, and influences of modern philosophy starting with and returning to Soren Kierkegaard. The art direction is sublime, weaving future noir with comic book and producing a wonderfully believable cloth. The writing is solid. Even Keanue Reeves is believable as the in-the-dark protagonist through which we discover this world. The DVD is gorgeous. The features are solid. The behind-the-scenes is an amazing look into the massive effort involved in bringing something like this to the screen. The fact that the Wachowski bros were able to introduce such important and beautiful modes of thought - by infusing the very nature of the story with them - while wrapping the whole package in a action-packed veneer is breath-taking. A move of genius. An entire generation of kids will now grow up thinking, howerver subtly, about these motifs. This aspect of the film, historically speaking, makes it hugely important. The fact that it's a fun and wild ride makes it wonderful. I file this movie in my collection next to my Kubrick DVDs.

Summary: Very good film
Review: This sci-fi film is truly extraordinary.. I never knew a movie could be so good. The first time I saw this movie, I was fascinated by the technology used to make this movie. I also enjoyed the story line as much as I enjoyed the special effects. This is a must buy selection.
