Pros: Graphics, Sound, Plot Cons: Questionable Plot
After viewing "The Matrix" five times, I have come to the conclusion that this is one of the most thought provoking action films I have ever viewed. The best part of the film, is how it is filled with high tech graphics with touches of biblical...

Pros: Awesome movie all around. Cons: The movie ends.
I know a lot of people have written about this movie, but I still think it is one of the best movies ever. The special effects were simply amazing. There were scenes that just make you sit back and say, "Wow". After you finish picking your jaw...

Pros: Great special effects, solid scripting Cons: work on reality/matrix transition
As a sci-fi fan, I have watched some unusual movies over the years. This one takes the cake (so far).
The year is approximately 2199, and computers rule the world. In fact, the world as humans see it is not real. It is a computer construct...

Pros: slick, engrossing, absolutely convincing Cons: i couldn't find any... maybe a little too complicated.
The Matrix is one of those movies that comes along once in a lifetime. To be frank i was rather sceptic when I walked into the theater. 'Its going to be another special fx extravaganza without any substance.', I told myself. Whoa! Did id get the surprise...

Pros: Special effects, plot, cast Cons: violence
I am a long-time science fiction fan from the days of Star Trek and 2001 Space Odyssey and have always enjoyed a great science fiction movie with great special effects and excellent story. In Matrix I was glad to find both.
The special...

Pros: Great story line,actresses/actors Cons: I heard there is a part 2

Not only was Keanu great Lawerence was awesome.

Pros: Idea, camera tricks, personality of the characters Cons: some gross parts if you are squemish
I thought The Matrix would really suck so I put watching it of until last summer. But when I did I couldn't believe how wrong I was . The Matrix was a great action and new age movie. The camera tricks were awesome! The idea was incredible. The...

Pros: Plenty of room for reflections about self-knowledge. Cons: The psychological path in The Matrix could be more deeply explored, but hey, you really have to watch the movie.
When Neo gets to visit the Oracle, he meets a little fellow who is apparently twisting a spoon with his own mind. The spoon gets the camera's focus, as Neo's face is reflected on the spoon, and reality itself seems twisted by a relationship between Neo...

Pros: Awesome story, big guns, lots of explosions. Cons: All too familiar ending was rather disappointing.
"The Matrix" is a great film. The story was incredible, and drew me right into the movie, and held my attention the entire time. The acting was also terrific, Keanu Reeves was as good and believable as in his other blockbuster hit...

Pros: Special Effects, story, cast Cons: None at all
You go about your everyday life thinking that you control your own destiny and that everything around you is what it is. Only one problem, nothing is what it seems. In a post-apocalyptic world run by computers, human beings are used as...

Pros: A cinematic masterpiece Cons: The sequels arent out yet
Most people dont know, but The Matrix is based on many aspects of basic philosophy. I saw this movie 4 times in the theater and have proceeded to wear out my VHS. Thank god for DVD. After taking a college course on knowledge and reality, I have never...

Pros: great acting, bullet timing Cons: some parts didn't fit the story, but didn't interfere
perception: " our day in day out world is real"
Reality: "The world is a hoax. An elaborate deception spun by all-powerful machines of artificial intelligence that control us."
That is what the back of the box reads...

Pros: strong cast and story-line Cons: bleek aspect of modern technology
Knowing something of Christianity, the comparison between(although not clear in the beginning)the plot of this movie and the second coming of Christ was very intriguing. However, I do not know that this was the movie-makers intent, and I doubt the devout...
