Why The Matrix is my favourite movie of all time.

Rating: 10/10 (16 March 2017)

I'm a fan of action, sci-fi, thrillers, darkness, originality, realistic, romance, style, deep story lines and this blockbuster doesn't just have it all, its a 10 out of 10 in each of those aspects of the movie. Now when I say realistic, you're gonna have to take that statement with a pinch of salt, as its obviously not a real story but after I saw the film back in 1999 when I was 16, I asked myself the question, wow, how do I know I'm not in the matrix right now? The movie is told in such a way that really makes you believe it could be true, where a lot of films fall short of these types of story lines. A lot of films hit you with crazy ideas too early which forces you not to believe that it can actually happen. But this movie is built and told in such a way that its almost impossible for you to deny it, and that's one of the main reasons why I love this movie so much. And as for originality, this is arguably the greatest groundbreaking movie of all time. Before and till this day, there still hasn't been a story like this in any movie.
If you ever have a spare 7 hours, my advice would be to watch all 3 movies back to back and see them as one big movie, truly outstanding.
Thanks for reading.
