More real than life The Matrix takes you on a ride and doesn't let you go!

Rating: 10/10 (7 December 2002)

This movie is absolutely incredible. Many things can be said about and I will choose to say a few. Wow. Wow. Wow. When I saw this in the theater for the first time I sat frozen, clutching the theaters chairs, why? Because I had never seen anything like it before. I had a similar experience after seeing Blade Runner for the first time in the early '80s. I walked out thinking to myself, this is going to change the way movies are made. And I was right, every action movie since has borrowed heavily from The Matrix. If you are a fan of action and adventure, then this movie is for you. Forget about everything you know, or think you know, and be prepared to be blown-away.
No one can be told what the Matrix is, you must be shown it.
