Hollywood studios flood screens with commercial productions, that drag people...

Rating: 10/10 (2 September 2002)

Week-by-week, Hollywood studios flood the screens with commercial productions that drag regular people from their real lives to watch thinking-free brainwashing movies. What they call entertainment. The Matrix is a cheerful exception. It shows, through its metaphors, that humankind is being enslaved by the system: religion, corporations, capitalism, media, etc. It's more like an awaking call to a worldwide spread unconsciousness that is being kept by, also unconscious, greedy power-addicted few. All that and much more is wrapped up in this brilliant feature which you probably should watch more than once to get a better grasp of its abundant content. My favorite movie of all time.
