you don't want to miss this

Rating: 10/10 (5 May 1999)

I must say I'm a sucker for movies that make you think. The idea that one is not in control of one's life may be a little over-used, but nevertheless, this movie gives you the visual details you need.
I must say though some of the jokes were cheesy (humans being made into Duracell batteries for one), which produces several points of anti-climax, it's not bad enough to make you not like it. The kung-fu was one thing that really kicked ass. First time I must say where kung-fu is used well. Also incredibly imaginative at times in terms of the special effects (I mean, I've never seen anything like this!). The fast dodging of bullets etc etc. Though I must say the sound tended to be too loud at times for my pleasure.

I love the scene where Trinity finished off the Agent .. I mean, yeah, girls, this is one woman to look up to! However, I must say the movie didn't explain how the hell the little system which the aliens destroyed recovered and how Neo managed to get back to the Matrix after that destruction and what happened to Morpheus. I hope this is not a ploy to do a sequel.
At the end of the movie, let's just say, I felt as though I was in The Matrix. Let's face it, reality sucks without split-split-second kung-fu...
