Visual art

Rating: 10/10 (11 November 2013)

Who hasn't seen this movie and what can be said that hasn't already.
This movie takes an original idea, computer graphics, great characters, charismatic actors, a wonderfully imaginative script and turns science fiction on its head.
Who is "The One" destined to change the plight of mankind. Does he even exist?
Do not miss this film. Sci Fi fan or no this movie delivers. This movie has a lot of action and there is considerable violence but the violence is so beautifully choreographed that it becomes its own art form. My most vivid memories are of the savagery somehow turned into alluring music. Who can forget the shot of the Vulcan gun firing from the helicopter hovering outside the office building as it shreds a room during the rescue of Morpheous? Its one of the most beautifully shot scenes in my memory topped only by the slow motion storming of the office building by Trinity and Neo.
A small group of dissidents set out to free mankind from the grip of an omnipotent computer. Will they succeed? Is there any point to resisting anyway? We'll just have to see.
