Charles Schoellenbach A cadre of renegade computer hackers is trying to subvert the Matrix, a software-generated delusion controlling the planet. The Matrix is a product of artificial intelligence that turned on the world and now protects itself with its own Gestapo. The hackers all go by their nom de guerre. It is a mix of Eastern philosophy, ancient Greek religion and present-day conspiracy mentality.
Reality is no longer an illusion.
The computers and software that man has created hijacked it with the everyday person unable to tell the difference. The crowd in the know wears sunglasses. Morpheus convinces the frightened and disbelieving Thomas Anderson a.k.a. The story is slow and uneventful while Neo receives training in the martial arts and the gang avoids malevolent squid-like robots in its hovercraft. The humor is hallucinatory-goofy and much too scarce.
