Thought Provoking

Rating: 8/10 (28 April 2020)

Most of the Matrix's performances are overall cliche, Keanu Reeves isn't rocked to the core when he learns he's living in a simulation. However, there was redemption beyond that point. The special effects are a bit dated, but they're still interesting. Hugo Weaving gives a cool and intimidating performance as Agent Smith. The characters, although not always sharp, stir interesting thoughts within the viewer's mind. The movie made me question the weight of their world and whether I would want to live in a monotone but safe lie or a bleak dangerous reality. Although dated, The Matrix, like it's world, has more than it seems.
