Sci-Fi Action Garbage

Rating: 3/10 (5 April 1999)

The Matrix lives up to its billing as a computer program laden with special effects. What? This is a movie? Could have fooled me. I thought I had seen this movie before when it was called Johnny Mneumonic or was it Spaceballs. This was a typical movie with characters and plot straight out of Mission Impossible. Sure the stunts and effects were cool, but Keanu Reeves's acting overshadowed it. It was if Ted Logan (from Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure) was the main character. It was entertaining, but not for the $7 or so that admission costs. This is a decent movie to see on tv or even for a free rental, but I wouldn't spend my money on it.
