Absolutely amazing

Rating: 10/10 (19 June 1999)

This is my favorite type of movie: the one where the point of the plot slowly dawns on you as you watch the movie. (Twelve monkeys is another example of what I'm talking about.)
There is very little that can be said about this movie without ruining some of the suspense. As they say in the preview, "No one can tell you what the matrix is. You have to see it for yourself." All I can add is, it'll be worth it.
A few days ago I wrote a comment on "The Mummy", where I complained that special effects are not enough to make a good movie. "The Matrix" might as well have been an answer to my wish. It's got amazing effects, and it has a plot that will keep you glued to your chair. Go see it - it's a must.
