Very wellmade, glorious effects but nothing more.

Rating: Null/10 (2 December 1999)

''The Matrix'' is not really what I've expected. Even though some brilliant special effects, it was only towards the end of the movie that it got exciting. The Wachowski-brothers has made a really wellmade movie, but hornestly, John Woo does it better. Everything was better in ''Face/Off'' for example. Keanu Reeves is not one of the best actors in the world, and this movie really tries to confuse us in a way that Terry Gilliam tried in ''Twelve Monkeys'' but it still ends up like an ordinary ''Bye Bye-Brain'' action movie. Only better made. If the brothers just made a more entertaining script, this would be really good!

Ending quote: ''The Matrix'' might not be as cool or good as I expected but if you can hold on half of the movie you will enjoy! *** (of 5).
