Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fun Science Fiction, with a lot more.
Review: This movie goes beyond any bad science fiction movie out there. This is because, it has the special effects (mind blowing), it has the action, but is has something more, A STORY.

A good science fiction movie will make people think about themselves and their roles in society. This movie IS thought provoking, for anyone looking for a deep story. This movie also has wonderful special effects (won an oscar for that), and intense action, for anyone looking for a good time.

Either way, this movie will be enjoyed by any fan of Deep Sci-Fi, OR mindless action.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best In A While
Review: This movie had it all for me. Great effects, plenty of action and a decent story. I could watch this movie every day.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Movie of All Time
Review: This movie had many meanings to it...for the viewers to find out. Machines rule the world. What else can I say? It is the best movie of all time. The special effects were fantastic and I enjoyed watching it! Anyone who puts anything but 5 stars is insane.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Stupid, dull and pointless movie!
Review: This movie had really had no plot to it. This is one of the most over-rated movies ever made. The movie was hard to follow and had a lame story line. If it were not for the special effects this movie would have been worse that it really is.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: First-rate pick
Review: This movie happens to be one of my favorites. The DVD makes it an excellent addition to the home theatre, or even the PC community with its special features. Definitely worth the money. Note: This DVD has minor problems on certain players. There are a few sections that myteriously play themselves twice over. Overall, it's not a problem. The repeating scenes are good ones, after all.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Epitome of Cool
Review: This movie has a great cast, great cosutmes, cutting edge action, original storyline and it's just plain cool. The leather duds, flying kicks and black glasses have brought back the popularity of the trench coat, brought back appreciation for kung fu movies and sent the sunglass revolution on a spinning craze.

The script is quite clever that to this day I still find it mind-boggling. It has definitely sparked after-movie discussions because I've had to ask my more intellectual friends to explain it to me. I am glad that it decided to throw in action sequences which suited the less brainy audiences. All around a novel concenpt and should have just stopped right here.

The following sequels seemed somewhat of a disappointment. As you were expecting each sequel to become more novel and orginal, it had to come to deal with teh reality of the Matrix in the fight of humans aginst the machines. It was better to have left you wondering and thinking "what-if".

My favorite characters, by far, are the agents. In their secret-service like manner to be anti-cool, they were very cool and just as lethal as the rebels. "Find them and Destroy Them" is one of my favorite lines followe dby an agent slowly bringing his hand to his ear piece.

A neat film. Conceptually confusing at times, but the action more than makes up for it.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: It ROCKS!
Review: This Movie has all the elements of a major blockbuster..Cool effects, gripping storyline, amazing characterizations.. hell i saw the movie 4 times and still want to see it again... totally RAD!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Lot of fighting, fashion, flair, flaws
Review: This movie has basic flaws in its premise, but if you overlook them (or don't notice them, like most people) there's a lot of great action and style. The DVD version is great, with cool menus, extras, etc.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A comment on the commentary of a 5 star film.
Review: This movie has been reviewed to death, but I wanted to comment on the commentary included with the DVD edition. First let me say that this in one of my all time favorite sci-fi flicks right up there with Alien, Dune, Blade Runner. The commentary is however, the absolute worst I have ever heard. The director runs out of interesting stuff to say. Carrie-Anne Moss had the most interesting things to say, but you hear from her only briefly in the beginning of the film and then at the end. She said nothing during the whole middle of the film. Possibly she was intimidated by the special effect supervisor which had the most to say, but fell into such deep special effects lingo that, as a layman, I could only understand about 1 in 3 words. Plus his black humor was out of place and put me off. A ground breaking film in terms of special effects I think should have a 5 star commentary as well. A redeeming feature of this DVD edition is the mini-featurettes that are included.
