Major eye candy as well as very tasty brain food.

Rating: Null/10 (3 April 1999)

Tonight I saw "The Matrix" and I gotta tell you. This movie kicked major a**. Keanu Reeves as a hacker?, yeah right. But you quickly get over that as the movie takes you on a wild ride visually. The special effects are what makes this film work on the surface. Under that is a story line that may be hard to swallow for those not in to deep sci-fi. If you're going to see this movie thinking it's gonna be wall to wall action think again. There's talk, quite a bit of it, actually more than you'd like it to be. But if you're a sci-fi nut like me you can connect and keep up with the story, otherwise you may catch a few Z's like a small percentage of people did in the theater I went to. The CGI work in this film is the best yet to date. Very surreal you may think you're dreaming. Costume design was very good. Tight fitted leather never looked so good. I'll take that into account next time I decide to run up walls in excess of 50 MPH, and dodge bullets. All in all a good movie. A-
