Something for everybody in this wild ride...

The Matrix is the rare combination of plot, acting, special effects, and action that appealed to me on a lot of different levels: the whole concept of the "Matrix" made my head spin but didn't lose me, and the action sequences were well executed and built on each other nicely.
Lawrence Fishburn is warmly enigmatic, Kneau Reeves presents a nice combination of confusion and cockiness, and I could have happily watched Carrie-Anne Moss walk back and forth across the screen in her black outfit for two hours.
