WOW!!!!!

Rating: Null/10 (21 May 1999)

"Wow" is all I can say about this film. It is visually incredible, and Keanu Reeves makes a nice Bruce Lee (ha ha ha. Those of you who saw the film will understand that one). With a million films coming out each year, it takes a lot to really impress me nowadays. Films need decent, original plots that have never been used before for me to even look at them. I reached this conclusion when watching such sci-fi classics as the Star Wars trilogy and the first Highlander film. I considered myself pretty spoiled, and after such high-quality films as those, few movies make my eyes pop. But The Matrix did. It's visuals are incredible, and it's cast and plot are so brand new and refreshing, I now consider myself truly thrilled by it. Why don't they make more movies this good nowadays?
I won't reveal the plot, but I'll just say this: Nothing is as it seems. Nothing. You don't exist, and the world is run by robots.
Confused? Go watch the movie and find out for yourself.
I am convinced that if when movies first came out, and they had all the great technology back then that they have now, they had made the Star Wars trilogy, the first Highlander, and The Matrix, no other movie would have ever had to have been made. They are so superior, nothing could have ever topped them, so they shouldn't have even tried.
The Matrix....One of just a handful of sci-fi masterpieces!
