The Matrix is a movie experience like no other, and experience is what it's all about. It explodes with dazzling visuals and a transcendent sense of excitement.

Extremely violent, extremely preposterous, extremely entertaining, The Matrix succeeds at two extremely difficult tasks: as a vast, exciting virtual-reality movie and as a defibrillator for Keanu Reeves' big screen career.

A must-see among genre fans, especially guys in their teens and 20s, for whom the script's pretentious mumbo-jumbo of undergraduate mythology, religious mysticism and technobabble could even be a plus rather than a dramatic liability.

Thematically complex, yet intelligently integrating eastern philosophy, Lewis Carroll and ancient mysticism.

The effects are astonishing. It's funny, it's dark, it's smart and it's filled with guns, lots of guns. A landmark film and quite possibly the ultimate expression of cyberpunk.

A technologically stunning movie that furthers the genre and features crowd-pleasing performances to go with the frequent scenes of gunplay and violence.

The movie is nonsense, but it does achieve a brazenly chic high style -- black-on-black, airborne, spasmodic.

Hang on tight for a real mind-blower, with astonishing visual effects, frightening monsters and exciting stunt fights.

Where other films are done in by the freedom offered by computer effects, The Matrix integrates them beautifully.

Writer/director siblings the Wachowskis have gone further with the action genre than you'd have ever thought possible.

The Wachowskis and cinematographer Bill Pope take advantage of currently available technical trickery to create visually distinct levels of reality while setting high-speed cameras in motion to make the action sequences particularly dynamic and fluid.
