Purely Joyful Movie!
I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
A mind-blowing story with special effects that have been copied ever since. This is truly one of the great films of our time.
I wasn't sure about this movie when it first came out, but I gave it a go and enjoyed it. The sequels came and went, but they didn't compare to the first. And this was one of the few Keanu Reeves movies I liked, along with Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. But this was even better. We also get Laurence Fishburne and Carrie-Ann Moss along with Hugo Weaving as the villain (whom I first knew from Babe where he voiced Rex the dog). The special effects really blew me away and the cyberpunk themes really resonated. While The Matrix is not my absolute-favorite cyberpunk film (the original Tron is), it did well for what it set out to become. Do yourself a favor and watch this. Avoid the sequels. This was the crown jewel of the Wachowskis. Let's hope that Keanu Reeves returns for an even better Matrix film soon. I heard he said he'd like to come back on the condition that the Wachowskis will make them. Anyone for seconds?
I especially liked the conversation between Neo and Morpheus, you know, the blue and red pills stuff...
It created todays society in my opinion. Film is totally philosophical.
