Laurence Fishburne can tell you

Rating: 6/10 (28 January 2000)

THE MATRIX is overrated quite a lot, I think. Visually strong the movie really cannot stun me with such a poor story line. The real contents seem to be: impressing the viewer be revealing new facts about the amazing Matrix-world. But after having caught in which way the Matrix works it is just boring seeing Laurence Fishburne explaining and explaining what has already been explained. His never ending monologues nearly ruin the whole movie. It is not that interesting hearing ´´it is like this´´ and ´´it works like that´´ for half an hour. The rating of 8.4 points in the IMDB is too high, I think. I rated the Matrix 6 points.
