Enjoyable yet difficult to understand (and harder to explain)

Rating: 6/10 (26 October 2002)

In his column "In The Realm of the Senseless," about movies that made no sense, Joe Queenan mentioned "The Conversation" as a film that you enjoy even if you can't understand what it is about. I would definitely add "The Matrix" to that list. Exactly how and why everything is happening is never entirely clear, but it is exciting and compelling enough to keep your interest.
