A very tedious film. I yawned all through it.

Rating: Null/10 (18 May 1999)

This is the most disappointing film I have seen in years.
"The Matrix" had special effects galore, but no plot, character depth or development, and dreadful music. I actually yawned out loud several times during the screening, but no-one would have been able to hear me over the never-ending sounds of violence coming from the screen.
This film seems in some way to be a *summary* of other recent films such as "Dark City" and "The Truman Show". The writers did not bother to go into many details in the story. The script was also full of stupid-sounding lines that were obviously intended to sound "deep and meaningful".
It appears that there were lots of violent scenes the authors wanted to put on film, but it was too much trouble to fit a story to them.
