Perfect on it's own

Rating: Null/10 (18 August 2004)

When I saw this movie back in 2000, it was my favorite movie for about three years. I don't know what it is about it, the story, the way the story is told that makes you have to watch it 12 times to get it, the cool fight scenes (LOBBY SCENE!!), or all of the above. At the end you get feelings of coolness and hope, unlike some movies that have a depressive quality at the end (which I strangely also love). If you haven't seen this movie, go see it now! If you have, but you haven't watched the sequels, don't watch the sequels. Unless you really really really want to and have to. Because I'll agree that in Reloaded, the highway scene is way cool, and in Revolutions, the final battle is also way cool. But are they worth being let down? I'm not sure. See the first one, it stands on it's own as a strong, metaphor-filled, re-watchable over and over, absolutely awesome film. You will like it.
