The Matrix - Limited Edition Collector's Set

Rating:
Summary: An imaginative, mindblowing SF achievement
Review: Truly one of the best films ever conceived on the desktop. Storyline, special effects, even Keanu's acting are superb. Thought provoking on many levels, not your normal shoot 'em up, predictable action bore.

Summary: Indescribable!
Review: I left the movie theatre in OWE and had nothing to say it was so good

Rating:
Summary: Excellent But Grim
Review: This was one of the best shows of 1999, easily the best science fiction, excluding Star Wars. We are never really told why Neo is the chosen one. The special effects are great and the story is really riveting. The story is somewhat grim, but that is a touch that adds to its charm. Some really original ideas. Definitely a show worth seing.

Summary: One of the coolest sci-fi flicks I've seen in a long time!!!
Review: Exciting and inventful, The Matrix induces a bewilderment as to our purpose in life. This hearty film has enough to satisfy science-fiction lovers and action film entusiasts alike.

Summary: The special effects in this movie were awsome!
Review: This movie was very good. I never got board. The special effects were the best part of the movie. I'm definately going to buy it.

Summary: Best intelligent kick-ass movie yet
Review: Sure, the Matrix has incredibly well-done spfx, cool editing, astounding stunts, and guys wearing shades, but what makes this so great is that the makers of this movie actually put in a few ideas to go along with images. The best sci-fi (in literature and film) always makes you think, makes you wonder. The Matrix is hands down the best sci-fi movie since Terminator.

Review: Is like a modern and high tech version of old BUDHA teachings...

Summary: Great premise, good start, but a bad finish
Review: I saw the Matrix only because so many people reccomended it to me, and the idea did sound intriguing. And I was pleasantly surprised up until they woke Keanu Reeves up and brought him into the real world. After that not only does it become necessary for him to act, but the movie descends to sickening levels of testoscerone and explosions. It's a shame that they thought it was necessary to keep interest going by blowing things up and shooting everything. But the real shame is that it ruined what could have been a good movie.

Summary: In my opinion, better than Terminator 2 and all other Sci Fi
Review: Absolutely thrilling special effects, great story and awesome music score. Favorite parts for maximum sound effects are the rescue sequences including the shootout in the lobby of the captive building and the helicopter crash. Anyone watching this movie and listening to it through regular TV speakers are missing more than half of the movie. Although the visuals are excellent, the sound heard through a good sound system including subwoofer cannot be beat. I live in an apartment and luckily I don't have complaining neighbors, so I can crank the sound sometimes and I do it often. I have watched this movie more than five times already, and still can't wait to see it again.

Summary: a waste of time
Review: Nothing but special effects. Awful acting, nonsense story. I Couldn't even make it through the whole movie it was so bad. These five stars reviewers are playing too many video games. I'd have to take a bribe to sit and look at this garbage again.
