The best sci-fi movie I've seen since Stargate!

Rating: 9/10 (2 April 1999)

This movie was the embodiment of sci-fi as it should be - it draws you in, scares you to death, gives you a LOT of eye candy, and leaves you dying to see it again.
Some of the actors enlisted didn't make it look too promising, but the performances were easily the best seen from Keanu Reeves and Laurence Fishburne while Carrie-Anne Moss was the perfect choice for Trinity.
The look of the scenes that were not based in the Matrix was similar to that of Alien Resurrection in some ways, and one cut of Keanu Reeves turning toward the camera with his black trenchcoat flapping in the breeze, raising 2 pistols up toward you looked like it could have come right out of a Nicolas Cage Face/Off scene. The majority of the film, however, is very original.
Finally an effects movie with a fantastic plot.
