Summary: A great DVD, and an absolutely Awesome Movie.
Review: Go See the Matrix, no two ways about it.This is the second Greatest Science Fiction movie I have ever seen, the best being _Blade Runner_. ANy Movie that can make Keanu Reeves look like a major asset as an actor is just a perfect example of what a great director , an awesome story and an excellent supporting Cast can do. Laurence Fishburne is nothing short of Awesome as he plays the role of Morpheous. And the villians make you feel like our hero's could actually lose, which is a nice change of pace from so many recent Sci-Fi and Action movies. The DVD version is quite outstanding in it's own right. It has a bevy of features that are great, and if you own a DVD-Rom drive you have some neat additional features as well. If you have a DVD player you need this movie.

Summary: One of the greatest films ever
Review: The Matrix brings viewers special effects galore, with an intresting plot to boot. The movie does have some strange moments in which it seems there was no other way around the roadblock in the storyline other than making somthing up (ex. Neo coming back from the dead), but the cinematics and stoline easily make up for it. I've watched this movie at least 20 times and i still can't get enough of it! If you havent seen this film yet or don't own it yet, buy it, and buy it fast. You'll never regret it (at least I KNOW I won't).

Summary: A sci-fi film that's actually good!
Review: Although a few people seem to disagree, I really enjoyed THE MATRIX. The plot, acting, special effects, and music were all good. I don't really like science fiction movies, but this one was really good. The story is creative and unique. The special effects were awesome! From explosions, to vanishing; it was all great! Whoever did the casting did a great job, also! Keanu Reeves isn't my favorite actor in the whole world, but he played Neo flawlessly! I also liked Carrie Anne-Moss as Trinity-I hope to see her in more films. I understand there is going to be two sequels, and I can't wait to see them! Just one tip when watching this film: pay close attention! Don't do laundry or read while watching this! You must pay close attention, but you'll love the revelations :)

Summary: A favourite of mine
Review: The Matrix is one of those movies that is either loved or despised. The story is a pretty ordinary tale of a person who is unaware that he is destined to save humanity. (Keanu Reeves is excellent as a man who is never quite sure what is going on.) The setting is imaginative and well portrayed, although not groundbreaking. The special effects, however, most certainly are. The DVD contains a behind-the-scenes look at how those freeze 'em then spin 'em in the air scenes were created. I'm still not completely sure why, but the combination of special effects and original setting goes to make this movie compulsive viewing.

Summary: A fabulous sci-fi thriller!
Review: The Wachowski brothers really cooked up one monster of a movie with The Matrix. It's got everything a good sci-fi movie needs: Deep story, fabulous visual effects, a powerful score, and a wonderful cast! This is a movie I'll enjoy for many years to come, and certainly one of the most entertaining, and most well put-together sci-fi flicks of all time!

Review: A very entertaining movie, but I don't see why it was nominated for best picture. It was a little too "summer blockbuster" for my taste. Never the less, this is a great movie to add to your collection.

Summary: An excellent example of the modern action film
Review: Let me first get the plot out of the way, and trust me, that ain't hard. It's a trashy, adolescent version of a solipsist rambling, presenting a pointless and unconvincing universe with a pointless and unconvincing atmosphere. It does nothing for the cinematography, and less for the actors. Keanu Reeves and Hugo Weaving were absolutely horrible, and the first scene with Agent Smith left me thinking that a speech impediment was written into the script. Special effects? They were decent. There was nothing mind-boggling about them, nor anything particularly artistic. One particular ripple-effect on a skyscraper when impacted by a helicopter was very CGI and very unbelievable. In the end, they were nothing to be scoffed at, but certainly nothing worth seeing the movie for. This is where the action sequences come in. I have never seen a movie with more impeccably designed scenes. From the lukewarm sort-of cool martial arts match between Neo and Morpheus to the awesome showdown between Neo and Mr. Smith in the subway station, there is always a flash of brilliance and a touch of artistry. But my favorite is the one scene that gets its own special award: "For Most Marble Suspended In Mid Air In Any Given Sequence." You do the math.

Summary: My favorite movie of 1999
Review: There was a reason that The Matrix won all the Oscars for special effects and sound over Star Wars: Episode 1. They were revolutionary. How many movies since The Matrix have you seen similar effects shots being used, a lot. I did like Episode 1 to, but the Matrix did all its effects with live actors which makes it that more impressive. The story is just great. It really makes you wonder about reality, but its more entertaining than anything. Its hard to get bored of this movie, I have seen it many times now and i still could go see it again and enjoy it. Definetly worth adding to your dvd collection. There are also some neat special addons to this dvd, showing how they did a lot of the special effects in the movie, it is really interesting.
