Matrix changed the evolution of sci-fi movies

Rating: 10/10 (6 February 2014)

When The Matrix first came out I was awestruck by the revolutionary special effects back then. I'll be honest I wasn't sure Keanu Reeves could pull off such a dramatic role, but like so many others, I was relieved to be proved wrong. I believe to this day this movie still feels fresh and does not seem dated at all. I loved the entire trilogy but as most will also attest the first one made the best sense! A true classic for the ages. Now the plot line is a bit complicated but the Watchowski Brothers filled in the gaps brilliantly. You didn't know that reality was in the matrix till the end. Or the matrix was reality, a paradigm for the ages.
