Best Movie of the Year

Rating: 10/10 (25 December 1999)

Many see The Matrix as simply a rush of mind-bending special effects, but that is just an added bonus to the plot and cast. This movie brings together action and science-fiction in a well blended mixture sure to send your senses into overdrive. Keanu Reeves and Laurence Fishburne give terrific performances as Neo and Morpheus, respectfully. Carrie-Anne Moss does an excellent job playing Trinity, and she will become invaluable to Hollywood to years to come. Hopefully all three will reappear for the announced sequels to this 1999 blockbuster.
