wow

Rating: 9/10 (18 June 1999)

I went to see this movie twice, and maybe I'll go another time. It's a totally cool idea of this world being a fake, virtual world that is fed into the minds of us, humans, to let us think everything is OK, which is not the case. We've let things get out of control when we invented AI and now "the robots" use our bodies for their energy supply. Neo (Keanu Reeves) is pulled out of The Matrix to the real world (or what's left of it) to save mankind. I especially totally liked the 'agents'. The way they behave, act, move, speak is so very credible, machine-like. They look like men in black but they're cooler in some sort of way. They never react wildly, but speak distinctly. Bad guys of this millennium if you're askin' me! The fighting scenes are also very mind-blowing. The slowmotion/fast blurry effects are like you're watching them in trance (definitely go see this movie in a big-screen cinema!!!). The bullet dodging and flying around is very believable. also check out the soundtrack! it really rocks!!!
