Matrix

Pros: cool looking cast of characters, unusual story, great visuals
Cons: too much “evil” is invested in the idea of the future of Artificial Intelligence

I enjoyed the gun fire in this film and all the Kung Fu fighting. Special effects were neat, too.

The biggest thing that was left with me after viewing this film, however, was this: where can I get some of those red and blue pills?

...

Pros: The special effects, musical score, Laurence Fishburne, Keanu Reeves
Cons: Almost nothing

Let’s imagine that you are an average Joe just trying to make your way through the world, doing what ...

Pros: awesome special effects, awesome story, awesome action sequences, awesome music
Cons: none

The Matrix is an awesome movie, and it should not be missed by anyone.

I remember my brother got the movie and turned it on. I knew it would be cool, but just after seeing the first 5 minutes, the part where Trinity fights the police...

Pros: Eye-opening special effects, thought-provoking concepts, great supporting cast
Cons: Incomprehensible after one sitting if a point is missed; understandable after a second viewing

The Matrix is a movie whose first commercials seemed stupid but became better as the release date approached. I have to say that while I thought the movie seemed to be stupid when I first heard about it, I grew used to the idea of the movie as...

Pros: nice visuals, particularly the costumes
Cons: unbelievably poor plot, script, acting

Maybe I just didn't see the same movie as everybody else. Maybe there's more than one "The Matrix" with Keanu Reeves and all that. But the movie I saw wasn't worth the cardboard Keanu is printed on.

So I'm sitting around doing...

Pros: Great Special FX
Cons: LONG

There is really only one thing I can say about this movie, and that is WOW!!! It has everything one could want, violence, love, hate, special effects.
This movie was about the adventures of Neo who was a computer hacker but had no real idea of...

Pros: F/X, intrigue, action, philosophy, fantasy
Cons: None in my opinion

This is the teaser question in the trailer and the first major puzzle to this cybersci-fi blockbuster. This film combines the plot intrigue of "The Usual Suspects" with the BEST special effects dazzle I've ever seen (any Star Wars, Alien,...

Pros: Good action, great effects
Cons: Check your brain at the door -- terrible plot

To borrow a line from David Spade's Hollywood Minute: I liked The Matrix the first time I saw it … when it was called Johnny Mnemonic.

Seriously, though -- while Keanu Reeves plays rather similar characters in these two SF thrillers, the...

Pros: All of the above, or below, depending on where you place this.
Cons: It could be a little TOO Deep, for the average person.

This review is Part Review, Part Response to all the people that Hated The Matrix. All the people I've talked to, who hated the Matrix, All seem to hate it, for the Same reason. They cannot grasp how Human Beings, being used as Batteries, can Possibly be...

Pros: Special Effects, good the first or second time around
Cons: Unoriginal, bad acting, shallow plot

Hey I'm like everyone else, I saw The Matrix and liked it the first time, but that was the first time. After multiple viewings you start to realize how stupid this movie is at times, and that there are reasons it only won special effects oscars.
...

Pros: Entertaining, good visuals.
Cons: Some plot developments are a bit lame.

The MATRIX - The Communist Manifest of the New Millennium

...

Pros: Special effects, great cast, good story line.
Cons: Some may get confused the first time through.

The Matrix has to be one of the best movies I have ever seen in my entire life! It was great. It has a great story line, cast, and special effects. The Matrix stars Keanu Reeves and Laurence Fishburne. One thing people may not like about the movie is...

Pros: Incredible CGI
Cons: It beat Star Wars: Episode 1 for best visual effects.

I am not a Keanu Reeves fan. I've had bad experiences with some of his movies (namely Speed), so when I heard there was a new sci-fi flick that featured him, I wasn't too interested, even with the ominous-sounding title "The Matrix."

...

Pros: Futureristic, fantastic, excellent plot and directing
Cons: The meeting with Agent Smith, no operator?

I saw a preview for this movie, and thinking it would be the worst 2 hours of my life i went to see it. No, i was proven wrong, this movie blew me away, it was up to date, that's an understatement. It was so past the level of our thinking to this...

Pros: Story, Visual Effects, Actors, Sound, Music, need I say more?
Cons: The love story

All people who did not like this movie might want to stop reading right now. I can safely say that this is the best movie I have ever seen. Now, I'll be honest with you. The first time I saw it, I only saw it because Keanu Reeves was in it. I have seen...
