The Matrix: Lets Redefine Cinema. ****

So Yesterday we decided to watch "The Matrix" and I simply forgot how awesome this movie really was.

Well as the movie starts it gives a scene the audience has to watch and chew on as their curiosity itches as to what the matrix is. Trinity is shown taking out a bunch of cops simply by breaking the rules of gravity and climbing on walls and kicking chairs to redirect bullets. This can't happen in real life so what is The Matrix? This is the question that drives the entire movie. Yes the beginning is mysterious, edgy, and melodramatic but that just adds to factor of what the matrix really is. This movie acts like a new invention, we sit there waiting and wondering what the heck this special machine does, then when it springs into action it absolutely blows our minds. The special effects in this movie are top notch, some of the best since "Terminator 2" and they are timeless in a sense as well.

This movie is very smart as it develops its theory of "The Matrix" and not only does it tell us what the matrix really is but it give comments upon human existence and how we are viewed not only by God or other humans but possibly machines as well. This movie is so creative that it alludes to religious savior like attitudes as it alludes to Jesus using "The One" perspective. This movie not only blew our minds but redefined Cinema forever because of One scene, Bullet Time. In this scene, Neo, Dodges a chamber of Bullets as an agent is shooting him and the camera pans around him as we see these super slow motion bullets just grazing him. This scene is spectacular and one the most memorable scenes in any action movie ever made. This new invention is brilliant and sweet.

Well to summarize, this movie has a really awesome story, a creative theory and brilliant allusions to life and humanity, the acting is its big downfall as a rigid Keanu Reeves utters his lines like a drone but he still fits the role perfectly. Basically this movie is just so on top of its game in every other aspect that really the acting doesn't even matter. This is one the best action movies ever made. Its a classic.
