an overall mind-bending film

Rating: Null/10 (29 April 2000)

Before I talk about how much i loved this film, i would enjoy pointing out the fact that the directors/writers of this film know how to attract to males. Their previous film, Bound, was a story about lesbians, and the matrix, was a story that anyone can enjoy. The matrix features tons of innovative methods of special effects and camera work that i have never seen before, but on top of that, it proves, under the right environment, much criticized actor keanu reeves can shine. Him and his co stars do a phenomenal job in this film, the directing of this film is very innovative, as with the writing. The film also incorporates one of the most original storylines to date, dealing with how people need to question their own existance, and question reality. A groundbreaking moment in sci-fi movies that has only been made by a few movies such as Alien, or The terminator. The Matrix contains some of the most packed and cool actions scenes also, although heavy on the violence it is done relatively tastefully, limiting the gore content and such. A highly advised film for anyone of any age to at least give a try.
