Pros: Everything
Cons: Nothing
The Matrix is one of the most amazing movies I have ever seen. It is one of the only movies that actually lived up to the trailer.
I remember sitting in the theatre, going, "Whoah" right along with Keanu Reeves, and thinking, "this...

Pros: Dazzling special effects, wonderful techie plot - right on the money
Cons: Could have had more exploration of certain themes
So...I went and saw it at the AMC, with its comfy bench seating, in a nearly empty theater, with a huge screen and DMX to blow out my ear drums. I also came alone and fully wound on a big pot of very strong coffee, alert and objective. This time I...

Pros: Visual effects
Cons: None. Nada. Zilch.
"The Matrix" was a film that grabbed my interest from the first moment I saw the preview during SuperBowl 32. I saw "The Matrix" the day it came out. It was March 3rd, 1999. I remember all of this because "The Matrix"...

Pros: Amazing Special Effects, Great Science Fiction Storyline, Innovative Concept
Cons: None
I am a big fan of science fiction films and The Matrix is definitely one of the best sci-fi films I have seen in a long time. The story is very immersive and the type of plot you really don't see very often. Visually, the movie was stunning and all the...

Pros: new twist on an old idea, special fx
Cons: acting, rushed ending
Although Keanu's sub-par acting maintains a puppet-like demeanor through yet another flick, I did manage to get "caught" in the Matrix.
The backdrop is not as original as one might think, and is only a slight (yet admittedly...

Pros: Originality of Action sequences, Wonderful Script
Cons: Violent - more suitable for teens and older
The Matrix - Is what you see really there.
What can one say about a movie that combines the beauty of the martial arts action sequences along with the fluidity of story telling so stunning that it grabs a hold of one's mind and carries...

Pros: Awesome action scenes, great plot
Cons: Chances are that there is not going to be a sequel
Yeah I know, Matrix has already been shown and is history. But I have joined epinions not so long ago and missed my chance to write about Matrix when it was out so I am going to do it now.
When somebody watches Matrix for the very first time,...

Pros: the special effects
Cons: nothing
There once was a time when I would watch any and all Keanu Reeves movies more than once and find them completely boring. This all stops with The Matrix.
The Matrix is a story about a whole other world run and made completely by machines and...

Pros: Amazing Special Effects
Cons: None
What if everything around you, everything you know is not real. What if your reality was someone else's computer program. That's the general basis of this movie. Thomas (Keanu Reeves), also known to his fellow computer hackers as Neo, has a...

Pros: Great Story, Plot, and makes you think
Cons: Waited too long to go see it (In my case)
As far as my personal opinion on this movies goes. It is awesome. I know it's already hit the theatres, and VHS/DVD. But I've seen this movie maybe 8 times, and it's just as good the first time as it was the last time.
What is the Matrix?...

Pros: Fx & Plot
Cons: I've never again seen such a good movie
The Matrix is the second film from the Wachowski brothers, the first being Bound and is a VERY different film from their first. While their first film was a cool and sexy crime thriller this is a film of huge ambition. At its core it attempts to...

Pros: Excellent special effects, lots of action
Cons: Plot (a little, anyway), seems overdone sometimes
The Matrix. Now there's a movie. Not only is it possibly the greatest action movie I've ever seen, but it's got some great sci-fi concepts in it as well.
By the time this was made, at least Keanu Reeves seems to have been well distanced from...

Pros: Just about every frame.
Cons: The story can get confusing if you're not paying attention
Film critics, along with many other writers with sociological bents, tend to group movements into decades. The noir of the 40’s, the Sci-Fi of the 50’s and so on. It’s a rather short-sighted way of categorizing filmmakers and their artworks. That being...

Pros: A wonderful movie, dazzling special effects, something for everyone, perfect cast
Cons: There's no sequel out yet.
One of the most amazing Science Fiction movies ever created. The Wachdwski brothers are amazing. This movie is a marvel of computer graphics. The Wachdwski brothers were fans of anime, and wanted to make an American live action movie, based off of a...

by Lunar82 , Mar 19 '00
Pros: Special effects, great story line
Cons: Not too much on the other ships and the last human city
You ask why I believe it was a great movie? Well I'll tell ya why. The whole movie was just played out so well. And Neo's character was great. The fact of the matter that they mixed so many things into this movie. I believe it can survive a trilogy...
