Que desastre de película, hasta los tan aclamados efectos especiales son horribles, ni hablar de las siguientes entregas que fueron peor que esta.

I hate movies like this, many slow motion, too many gun shootings, protagonist always trying to be cool, protagonist is always invincible, always wins a battle easily, antagonists are always dumb and lose a battle easily.

I am not interested to see martial arts in movie, I lather watch gun battles. If I want to watch martial arts I lather watch real martial arts match, martial arts in movies are fake. I don't even like most gun battle movies like The A-Team, Knight and Day, Resident Evil. I only like gun battles from Metro 2033. It gives thrill because bullets are very limited.

I only like the idea that people are in the computer world.… Expand

The "Citizen Cane" of the digital age. Tragic.

I give it a 3 because of the visuals. Even though I'm into matrial arts movies I did not like The Matrix. The first time I seen the special-effects however I was kind of "Whoa - cool effects" but it just gets old while the movie I give it a 3 because of the visuals. Even though I'm into matrial arts movies I did not like The Matrix. The first time I seen the special-effects however I was kind of "Whoa - cool effects" but it just gets old while the movie progresses and I went out of the cinema asking myself: "So.. Did they talk anything else than: Neo - You're the chosen one." For me The Matrix is like fast-food. Good for the masses but bad for those who seek quality. I surely won't watch it a second time especially since there are much better special effects out there nowadays which render this movie completely useless. Don't tell me it has a deeper meaning because there are probably 1000 books which have an alternate universe as topic and are less predictable. At the end I surely understand why "The Counterstrike generation" likes this movie so much though.… Expand

One of the worst movies of the last 10 years. Horrible acting by Reeves, a stupid script and an even dumber plot. Nothing more than a special effects display disguised as a movie.

Anyone who thinks this movie is great is an imbecile. Unfortunately, this country is rife with imbeciles. Okay, okay--this movie has some cool fx and some style, I suppose, but it also has some of the lamest fx ever printed to celluloid Anyone who thinks this movie is great is an imbecile. Unfortunately, this country is rife with imbeciles. Okay, okay--this movie has some cool fx and some style, I suppose, but it also has some of the lamest fx ever printed to celluloid (e.g. the freeze, rotate effect). For the martial arts genre, this kind of style is the cat's meow, but, like most martial arts movies, the visuals can't overcome the shortcomings of the braindead plot. And that, my dear friends, is where "2001", with its late-60's fx, spanks "The Matrix" up one side of the street and back down the other. Thanks for trying. In closing, an earlier comment alluded to a comparison of "The Matrix" and "Citizen Kane". I'm still waiting for that comparison.… Expand

Only morons like this film. Ok, the principal concept is a good one, but that is completely ruined by an extremely poor script with appalling dialogue and ill-thought out story. One of my favourite worst lines is when Neo first sees a Only morons like this film. Ok, the principal concept is a good one, but that is completely ruined by an extremely poor script with appalling dialogue and ill-thought out story. One of my favourite worst lines is when Neo first sees a "squiddy" and asks what it is. The reply: "It's a killing machine designed for only 1 thing". (And what would that be, the viewer thinks, killing, per chance?) But, no! It is to "Seek and destroy". In case it needs pointing out, that's two things. You may think I'm being pedantic, but this is not an isolated example. It's full of bad lines and pathetic attempts to be all philosophical. Fans often say how "thought provoking" and "deep" it is. Can you actually say what thoughts it manages to provoke? The only thought it provoked in me was "Why have I paid £5 to see this?" And "Ur an idiot if u hate this film": I've READ Alice in Wonderland, not watched it (it was a book before it was a Disney cartoon, you know) and seen Akira many times. Studying Japanese culture will not make this absolute turd of a film any good. It's just extremely poor.… Expand

Resentable plot, dreadful characters, plot holes the size of France. A stupid, stupid film; it feels like some special fx with a rubbish plot tacked on.

One of my favorite sci-fi films of all times. It has incredible acting with really good graphics.The story it had was put together flawlessly. You can't make a science fiction film better than this.

You can't call a sci-fi great simply because it uses philosophical thoughts and lasts more than two hours.

فعلياً ما هو المعنى من هذا الفيلم !!؟
إنه عبارة عن مؤثرات بصرية فقط ولا شيء آخر. الفيلم يعتمد بصورته الأولية على مبدأ التصارع بين العالم الحقيقي المُدمّر والعالم الآخر الذي تعيش في داخله الإنسانية بشكل واهم. إذاً من هذا المبدأ كان من المُفترض أن يقدّم الفيلم صورة انسيابية لمعنى هذا الوجود وتحقيق الخير، لكنه لا يُقدّم سوى عنف وحوارات لا يوجد فيها شيء مثير.
هذا الفيلم أخذ ضج أكثر مما يستحق، إنها مؤسسة الإعلام التي تبيح لنفسها تغيير موازانات الفكر من أجل مصالحها.
إنه من أسوأ الأفلام بشكل مطلق… Expand
