Techno religion...

Rating: 8/10 (9 November 2003)

The Matrix is the religion of our day, the modern and modified Christianity, with Neo as the digital Jesus. The Matrix is what people of the future will worship, it simply has everything! To say that it is a good movie is simply an understatement! Your body is a zone of ecstacy-karma when influenced by The Matrix....!
To think that all is an illusion is the ultimate test for body and mind!
The Matrix is to grand for our time, a trend-setter and impossible to copy. After the first watch I knew it was a special movie, but it wasn't after the re-watch i knew just how grand. It opens a philosophy and way of thinking never seen before, it has the special effects and of course some kick-ass scenes! (HA HA)
When you leave the cinema, you leave with the thrusting sound of RATM: Wake Up, and you feel cool like never before, want to jump on to things and wish you had a pair of sun glasses or a long leather coat nearby!
But then again, all this only goes with the first movie, (even though in my head, there only exist's ONE), the follow-ups Reloaded and Revolutions are terrible and should have stayed as ideas in The Washowski Brothers head, instead of making them, in hope of landing more green $! What a waste....
So when you grow older and want to show this movie to your child or youngest cousin for the first time, keep in mind they have never heard of 2 & 3, and let it stay that way! (Maybe if we ignore them, in the future they will be forgotten....!:-)
All this said, if you have yet to see The Matrix you owe it to yourself, The Matrix isn't a movie, it's an epos!
