A feast for the eyes and the imagination.

Rating: 10/10 (1 April 1999)

I can not remember having had my expectations more wrong than when I saw The Matrix. Expecting a typical, stupid, special effects movie lacking in plot and character development of any kind, I was amazed at what I saw, and am still amazed. Instead of preparing yourself for another Independence Day, prepare yourself for a film that will make you question reality itself. Combine that with some terrific acting, a truly amazing premise; almost beyond imagination, some terrific fight scenes and incredible special effects, and you have one of the best films I have seen in some time. No one can be told what The Matrix is, so see the film and find out for yourself. You won't be disappointed.
