Ground breaking film with classic roots.

Rating: Null/10 (29 May 2003)

People don't seem to understand why The Matrix is so popular, or why it is held in such high regard, but this is actually quite easy to understand when you step back and look at the entire picture. It has everything. Kinetic action, fully realized special effects, internal plot points, subdued love and best of all, high class martial arts!
It is not the plot, the effects, or even the story line that make "The Matrix" so special, it is the well thought out combination of all of those elements that bring this film to the status it deserves.
