5.The Matrix
I give The Matrix three out of five stars. The only thing in my honest opinion holding the movie back is lack of answers and obscene action sequences. the fighting is to fantastic and can't be taken seriously. Since i have already seen this movie I went into it with the same expectations i had when i first saw it. I'm going to wowed by awesome special effects and be entertained for an hour or two. This expectation is spot on. I wouldn't see this movie if i was looking to leave with a good feeling or to be taught a lesson. I came away with a little bit of a cheesy feeling. Some of the acting and cut scenes are a little humorous. Near the end of the movie a prime example of the ludicrous scenarios is when Trinity kisses Neo and he comes back from the dead. Come on, that's just too much to swallow. Then again it is a movie and that's the reason we see movies. I think the movie could have vast improvements if a re-make could be made today. The era of 1999 is a weird time for movies i think. I cant really wrap my head around how big the cell phones were only ten years ago. The movie seems like it has a lot of potential, and could in fact be an awesome film. I don't doubt that it was groundbreaking back in the day. I remember The Matrix coming out and how much of a big deal it was. But i do believe that it has much more potential with today's technology. I liked the whole premise of the movie, the thought of our world being the dream world is a scary one. I think that's the reason why this movie is such a special one to film today. Neo's real world seems a little to space odyssey to me. I don't see it as a realistic society, i suppose that's what makes it a movie. I would also like more information the the "sentinels' because i think the "real" world might be a interesting direction for the sequel. I have yet to see the numerous sequels but I might guess that the "real" world is probably looked at more in depth. Keanu Reeves is the star of the movie playing lead roe of Neo. I think this character fits Keanu perfectly because of his robotic acting style is very similar to Neo's computerized personality.
