What a farce!

Rating: 4/10 (16 August 2000)

I went to the cinema expecting to see a spectacular movie, filled with stunning special effects and (at least) a decent plot and I got a boring tale about a certain Neo, where God only knows why he must be a hacker (he could well have been a pony express clerk or a plumber as far as the the story is concerned). The dialogues are slow paced, mostly idiotic, and the performance of Reeves is said to be one of his best just because he remains quiet most of the time. In the end I don't understand what the hype around it is all about. Much ado for nothing.
