it gets better on repeated viewings!

Rating: 9/10 (12 May 2000)

after seeing this movie in the cinema and renting it on VHS, i own this movie on DVD and now i watch whenever i want. The good thing about this brilliant movie is that it gets better and better each time i see it! On each viewing i discover new interesting details in the special effects and the story. Sometimes i even put it on pause to glare at the special effects shots, like when Neo wakes up in the real world. You should try do that too, only then you can truly observe the visual excellence of these scenes. This movie totally deserved the oscar for visual effects (sorry phantom menace!). As Joel Silver said in an interview, this movie is ground-breaking, a film that will be much imitated by others.
