Matrix

Pros: original
Cons: -

As of this writing, this DVD has over 2000 reviews. This, more then anything, tells you how popular it is, even with Keanu Reeves, one of my least favorite actors. I assume you are probably already familiar with the story so I will only discuss the...

Pros: wow
Cons: wow

The Matrix stars Keanu Reeves, Laurence Fishburne, Carrie-Ann Moss, and Joe Pantoliano, among others. I have tracked Fishburne's acting career since his infamous role on Pee Wee's Playhouse as "Cowboy Curtis", and I must say, I am amazed once...

Pros: Great keep you on the edge of your seat action
Cons: no sequel

My boyfriend suggested this movie. He said it was a great "action" movie. I expected your typical "guy" flick with lots of fights and blowing up of things, but boy did I love this movie!! This movie will defiantly leave you wondering...

Pros: The movie makes sense when you pay attention to it
Cons: none

I saw this movie because my sister kept bothering me.....they talk allot about pattern of life in this movie, but these people in this movie were more bionic, It is a science fictional movie...it's like cyber the only thing that there souls go with them...

Pros: Storyline, Action, Special Effects
Cons: non-sensless violence?

I originally saw this movie because a friend recommended it to me. I had no idea it would be this great. The plot is twisting making you think the entire movie and I love that. The action is awesome, but the single greatest thing about this movie...

Pros: Impressive FX, Incredible Story, Well-made Wardrobe, Flawless Acting
Cons: None

Sci-fi. When one contemplates this oft-used cliche, horribly-costumed individuals in obviously phony metallic saucers immediately come to mind (as in "The Day the Earth Stood Still"). Science fiction, however, encompasses much more...

Pros: Concept, Special effects, art direction
Cons: the acting isn't too good, too complex for some, too many special effects

To think if I only saw this in the movie theatres, I may have liked it more than I do, but still even on a big screen TV with surround sound, it still impressed me. The commercials for the film looked like Nissan ads. Coming home with most of the special...

Pros: A well thought out picture of the future.
Cons: none

This movie is the best movie I have seen in years!!! This movie is pure genius in the making. This movie has violence, suspense, romance, and technological warfare. The way the future blends in with the real world puts a real spin on reality. The Matrix,...

Pros: Special effects, martial art sequences, story line, dialogue, ect.... ect......
Cons: The ending is a little redundant, but done so well it is easy to overlook

The Matrix is a movie that completely redefines film making and even changes your thoughts about the reality we know. From the very beginning, you get a feeling for what the rest of the movie will be like. Action, symbolism, running from agents, surreal...

Pros: directors, actors, special effects, fighting scenes, plot
Cons: none

The best film made in the twentieth century is the Matrix. Besides having a mind-boggling plot, this film used never before seen special effects that will captivate any audience. The characters bring the film to life. The fighting scenes add...

Pros: Everything
Cons: None

This movie is awesome! The first time i watched it, i fell in love with it and it has become my all-time favourite movie. It is about people out of the Matrix like Morpheus who brings people with good potential from the Matrix into the real world. Then...

Pros: stunning special effects, captivating plot, non-stop action
Cons: it will leave you aching for the sequel

This is my favorite movie of all time. The action is amazing, the stunts were superbly coordiated and filmed, the dialogue is intriguing and the special effects are simply marvelous!

I've watched this movie about 15 times, nine times in the...

Pros: Good action, EXCELLENT special effects
Cons: poor plot; Keanu Reeves.

I didn't get to see this movie until it was out on video. I'm sorry...I was in school and I couldn't get away. But since I didn't see it in the theatres, I wasn't dazzled by the special effects and such. Unfortunately, without them, this movie is...

Pros: great graphics, plot, and actions
Cons: none!!!!!!!!!!

This is the best! I love movies with action, but they tend to have no plot (or a very thin one). The Matrix has a VERY unusual plot. The movie gives a view of life that many people would never think of. You have to pay very close attention to every...

Pros: First one to have real success with the idea behind the plot. Good noir feel. Gunfights turned into an art. The head Men In Black ripoff is great. Keanu Reeves actually *isn't* as bad as the status quo makes him out to be.
Cons: .....The ending. The use of Judo as a martial art that's supposed to do anything but suck.

A critic who reviewed The Matrix once said it was the defining specimen of what a great movie should be. Replace everything after the word "of" with "the fact that a thing is never as good as everyone else tells you it is" and...
