One of the greatest

Rating: 9/10 (24 May 2016)

Well there is not much to say about this fantastic peace of art. This movie revolutionised the concept of action/sci-fi films. Loved it!
THE MATRIX challenges what's real and what's part of an elaborate, fake cyber-reality, so it can be confusing for both the audience and the characters in the movie, which is heavy on special effects and brooding paranoia, light on plot, dialogue, character, and even coherence. In other words, it's the ideal movie for the kind of teen who wishes that video games could come to life. Though rated R for violence (some pretty gross, including an icky bug that enters the hero's body through his belly button) and language, most teens 14 and up who are begging to see it should be able to handle it without a problem.
Given a budget that encourages their kinesthetic skills, the filmmakers tend to go on a bit, but it's mostly a kind of quick, glancing hipness that's being indulged here.
