Summary: Fabulous
Review: Well, honestly, I really didn't want to see this movie one bit, until a friend made me sit down and watch, and am I ever glad he did. Of course the special effects are amazing, but that isn't what makes a movie. What makes a movie is such an intricate and seamless storyline, which this movie really carries. It has a strong psychological aspect, which many will enjoy, not to mention all out action, which all the rest will love. Overall, one of the most thought provoking and wonderful movies I've seen in a long time.

Summary: On & Off.
Review: Well, it had an interesting story, overblown special effects & all, but for some reason (& tons of people I've asked in college agree)that it gets more & more boring every time you watch it.

Summary: what the hell is everybody thinking?!?!
Review: Well, it's finally happened. The peasants have been slopping around in sh-t for so long that they finally have started to believe it's gold. I don't understand it...a formulaic chunk of special effects and action scenes with a couple of minutes of plot development, characterization, and deep thought, and everyone hails it as a totally original masterpiece? C'mon people, it's been done before, although maybe not quite as hip or with as many bursts of special effects (remember Altered States or Tron?) This was an OK movie, it mildly amazed me at parts, but I still have no idea why everybody thinks it deserves five stars and the best film of the year. Sure, it goes above and beyond Jar Jar Binks, but so would, for that matter, almost anything else released this year. This movie irritated me in the same way as Sixth Sense did later in the summer: neglect to release any good product for a long time, meticulously package average product, and consumers will percieve average product as a masterpiece. What happened to the time, so long ago now, the time of Raging Bulls and Brazils and Aliens and 2001s and Unforgivens and L.A. Confidentials and Wild Bunches and Manhattans and Annie Halls and.. and...essentially...something that makes us THINK, godammit! I'm MAD AS HELL, and I'm not gonna take it anymore!!!!

Summary: Good movie, man!
Review: Well, It's, like, like it was 1970 again, man, and it was brilliant, just pure noise, man, the sort that 99.99999% of musicians, like, can't or won't do because they're just too scared, like, to do any thing worthwhile in they're worthless lives, like, and that's it, man. Yo.

Summary: The Matrix rules!!!!
Review: Well, the matrix is a ultra super dooper action packed sci-fi movie. I think it's the best movie of its kind. It's well acted and the story is well explained. The title The Matrix doesn't sound like an action movie. But it is. Larry and Andy Wachowski made this movie so great. They gave it a great story and put in the best sci-fi action i have ever seen. I give it a 5, but would like to give it a 6. It's the best movie in 1999.

Summary: Special effects, but............
Review: Well, the only good thing of this Movie are the Special Effects. Indeed the story is boring. Dark City is and stays the best Sci-Fi movie for now. Okay it doesn't have those greats special effects of Matrix but at least the story is great and you won't look at your watch while watching it.

Summary: All right! Ugh......
Review: Well, what do you expect? This movie can be summed up in a few words. Nerds killing cops. Yes, you heard me. As other reviewers have mentioned already, the heros are actually more like terrorists. But what do you expect? It seems that everybody smart these days have to go against the law. I do agree however that this movie seems to be created for the mass market, appealing to teenagers who just might go on another school shooting.............ugh......oh well, it was still a good movie...so good, it made me wonder if I was IN the matrix.

Summary: overrated
Review: Well-done; but not nearly as good as most people think it is. The whole virtual reality/reality angle isn't particularly new, or even presented freshly, but since most people aren't acquainted with science fiction that well they're impressed. The acting is horrible; I wouldn't expect much from the male lead, but even the other actors, some of who have showed talent elsewhere give wooden performances. The movie is put together well, and while the art direction is the usual Ridley Scott/H.R. Giger ripoff it's at least done professionally. The action scenes are well-choreographed, though I've seen a lot better. All in all a decent movie.
