What an awesome flick!

Rating: 9/10 (27 March 1999)

I goto school at MSU and they had a free screening of The Matrix on 3/25 and all I can say is Wow! The sfx were out of this world, the fight scenes were the best I've probably ever seen. The plot kept pace with the non-stop action by making you question the reality of which you live in. The Wachowski brothers have completely redefined what great sfx can do for a movie. Keanu puts in a great performance, mainly because they limited the amount of dialogue he had, as Neo the reluctant leader of a resistance to free humanity. The movie immediately grabs you and holds you for the remainder, with the exception of your mouth dropping open during the mind blowing action scenes. Once word gets out about this movie, it's going to make mucho dinero.
