A ground breaking brilliance in Science Fiction film making.

Rating: 9/10 (28 August 2002)

Enough has already been said about how brilliant The Matrix is and I'm not going to add that much. It is curious to note however that as The Matrix was released in 1999, another ground breaking film was released twenty years earlier in 1979. I'm talking about Ridley Scott's Alien and whilst the differences between the two films are broad, both have stamped their mark as cutting edge science fiction films of the twentieth century.
