Matrix

Pros: great story, great action and great special effects
Cons: make sure that you're ready to open your mind

The Matrix is a stunning display of the future of visual effects and
exactly what movie-goers should expect. What Star Wars did for
special effects in 1979, The Matrix does in 1999. Surprisingly,
though, some of the most impressive...

Pros: amazing special-fx, profound plot
Cons: some cliche dialogue, that's about IT!

I just hope the sequel is going to be as good as this. This movie had my interest from the beginning chase scene, and it only grew from that point. The basic story is this: Nothing you experience is real, life and our sensory feedback is only a very...

Pros: ..none..
Cons: ..none..

Other reviews will give you more than you need to know about the plot of this movie; really, though, the point of a film like this is the special effects. And the special effects are dazzling. The visual atmosphere created in this film is numbingly...

Pros: Beautiful artistic movie. Great special effects.
Cons: Simple plot. Very complex story.

Well, what can be said about The Matrix that has not already been said.

It is a great movie and I saw it twice at the movie an a couple of times on DVD afterwards. I really preferred the theater sessions, since the effects are so much more...

Pros: Great action, classic storyline, superb special effects
Cons: A couple of parts were hard to understand

Mind blowing kung-fu, pretty stylish clothes, nice looking sun glasses, and guns--lots of guns, make the Matrix a considerable candidate for the best film of 1999. This film from the very beginning gets the plot moving with fast action and holds the...

Pros: Great concept, plot
Cons: Violent

you'll like this movie. It makes you think just as much. Whoa...
If you like science fiction. If you like adrenaline-pumping action. If you like eye-popping visual effects. If you like movies with a creative plot. If you like sentences that start...

Pros: Special Effects
Cons: plot

I say to everyone who hasn't seen The Matrix yet the same thing about the movie. I will explain the movie as best as I can, but no one's explanation of this movie could possibly do it justice. You really do have to see it for yourself to understand it....

Pros: Brilliant effects and photography.
Cons: Reeves does not deliver an impressive performance.

This movie is proof that brilliant effects can make up for mediocre actors. Keanu Reeves plays Neo, a hacker drawn into a new world where humans are slaves and computers rule. Lawrence Fishburne plays the mystical Morpheus, a hacker who must show Neo how...

Pros: Quick paced action, pounding soundtrack, tremendous special effects, more, more, more!
Cons: Reeves doesn't die.

A wild rollercoaster ride of cyberpunk proportions! Fast paced, never a dull moment, and thoroughly enjoyable. Great action, special effects, and for those of you who like to think - tremendous existential undertones. Makes you wonder, are we really...

Pros: Great special effects and theme
Cons: NONE

The movie, The Matrix, is unbelievable and outrageous. I have no idea what even to say in order to explain how great it really is. In my opinion, it is definitely the movie of the year. You can watch it over and over again and not get sick of it....

Pros: screenplay, wardrobe , acting
Cons: takes a while to completely understand

I have seen the matrix over 17 times and it gets better every time I see it. This movie shows great casting, screenplay, storyline, wardrobe, weapons, plot, setting, sound, special effects, acting, and suspense throughout scenes. The matrix is the...

Pros: Incredible special effects, great plot, great action
Cons: Keanu Reeves a little weak

I was very happy last night as the Matrix walked away with three MTV Movie awards: Best Fight, Best Special Effects, and Best Movie. These three awards sum up how good the Matrix really is. I saw the Matrix when it first came out in theaters, which has...

Pros: Fast pace
Cons: Fast pace

After all the previous summers hype, I was looking forward to seeing The Matrix. And even if I didn't particularly like the movie, Keanu Reeves was playing Neo, the main character. What's not to like about that?

The first thing I liked...

Pros: Innovative fight sequences; Good plot
Cons: None

This is a kick-butt movie about Neo (played by Keanu Reeves), a computer hacker who is searching for the truth about the Matrix. He was considered to be the One that can save them out of the Matrix, a system of programs that all people in the future are...

Pros: Great effects, awesome story line, perfect casting, good web site, and it makes you think.
Cons: What if it's possible......?

As a "computer geek", I expected a lot from this movie after seeing some of the commercials and previews. Even after having my expectations raised by the advertising, I found the effects, the plot, the characters, and the casting of the...
