Summary: AWESOME!
Review: I didn't go see this in the movies cuz i am not a keanu reeves fan. but boy do i regret that now! luckily, i have a big screen tv and watched it on dvd. this was one of the best movies made in 1999. The plot, special effects, and twists and turns of this movie made it such a fun and exciting movie to watch. it's one of the few movies i think i would buy on dvd... that would be money well spent!

Summary: Cogito cogito ergo cogito sum...
Review: This Matrix is one of the few high profile Hollywood productions that truly makes the viewer think. At the same time, it is something that is fun to watch (especially the lobby scene- WHOA!) After watching it, one of my friends and I came up with an appropriate slogan for its theme, a take-off of the original "I think, therefore I am.": Cogito cogito, ergo cogito sum. I think I think, therefore I think I am.

Summary: Fast-paced, cliche-ridden ride
Review: I won't deny it: I enjoyed the Matrix. It's a fun film. It's got great special effects, quick pacing, and a compelling story-line. In the end, though, it's nothing more than a fast-paced action flick with high production values but no substance or meaning, wooden acting, and a lack of original ideas. The story is stylish but cliched: A dystopian future run by machines, the search for a prophecided messiah, a ragged band of rebels fighting against the system, reality as a work of fiction, the choice between an idyllic life in slavery or a tortuous life in freedom--we've seen all of these before, just never with so many guns and black coats.The special effects are great, the action is quick-paced, and the story is fun to follow, but that's about as deep as this movie gets. It is an expensive, mindless blockbuster, hardly the beginning of a brilliant, inspired mythology for the new millenium.

Summary: Is this movie the "One"? YES!
Review: stunning. exhilerating. oscar-worthy. these words do not describe this film. they merely scratch the surface into a film that will go down as a benchmark for all sci-fi/action movies in the future. The Matrix was brilliantly written, it would have been a smash hit with high school actors in it, but what set it apart from every other movie in recent memory was the tight delivery by actors you wouldn't expect it from. personally i can't wait for the sequels! and i'm going to make a point to see more Wachowski movies! i definately recomend this movie. "I can only show you the door, you must walk through it."

Summary: The Matrix has you, Neo........
Review: woah... i never thought a movie would have me owning practically every costume from it (including tha sunglasses thank you very much) and causing my friends and i to go running down tha halls screaming "TANK I NEED AN EXIT FAST! " the movie is the best thing i have ever seen in my entire career of viewing science fiction films. not only are the special effects and action great, the plot is absolutely fantastic. how often to you find a great action movie with a good plot? maybe one or two. out of hundreds. its the ultimatum of cool.. ive seen it 15 times and is still cant get over it. ps: DEFENITALLY buy this baby on dvd.. its higher resolution than VHS and it makes everything a lot cooler.. plus i got a kick out of tha special features!

Summary: The Best Film Ever
Review: The Matrix is a truly magnificent film! From the very start I was excited, intrigued and downright gobsmacked as to the depth and feel to the film. I truly loved this flick. The funky urban feel that it had, and the effects incorporated into it were loveable. You really felt that this was going to be a good film right from the start, and I tell you now it doesnt dissapoint. I have heard some people say it wasnt what they expected and that they didnt like it but I think those people couldnt of understood the film. The concept of the film was astounding and the directors were truly instrumental in the thinking of the plot. A very clever and believable story line, especially in the mad capped corrupted world we live in nowadays. The Matrix..........it came, it impacted and by god I friggin loved it. All who has eyes should grab some popcorn and sit down and watch this flick. I cant say any more than that !

Summary: DVD problems
Review: This is a great movie. You'll really get immersed in the world they portray to you, however you may want to buy the VHS version. The creators tried to jam pack this DVD full of extras, but it causes the movie to freeze at inoppertune times. You also cannot access all of the extra features. The manufactuer is aware of these problems & intends to re-release the corrected DVD mid-end Jan 2000.
