Summary - Perfect 5.0

A wickedly smart story that is provocative in a unique way. It’s that film where you remain up for night after night wondering…pondering…questioning everything about life. What if? That’s the question you’ll ask. “Have you ever had a dream you were so sure was real?”

Acting - Really Great 4.5

Almost top-notch acting. Hugo Weaving, Lawrence Fishburne, Carrie-Anne Moss, and of course, Keanu Reeves offer terrific acting.

Male Stars - Really Great 4.5

I salute you, Wachowski Bros!

Female Stars - Really Great 4.5

Female Costars - Really Great 4.5

Male Costars - Really Great 4.5

Film - Perfect 5.0

A brilliant film with a brilliant cast. The visual effects go above-and-beyond any movie made at that time. That is no exaggeration.

Direction - Perfect 5.0

Dialogue - Perfect 5.0

Music - Really Great 4.5

Visuals - Perfect 5.0

I've never seen it like this. Ever.

Edge - Risqué 2.2

Gun and martial arts violence are peppered throughout the film. Some surreal and frightening sequences.

Sex Innocent 1.5

Violence Brutal 3.0

Rudeness Salty 2.0

Reality - Fantasy 4.3

Potentially possible. Every fight scene, however is totally unrealistic.

Circumstantial - Surreal 3.0

Biological - Fantasy 5.0

Physical - Fantasy 5.0

    Regarding moviedude’s Review
    Good review Dude. I’d like to rescreen Matrix and review it myself. I recall being impressed that it was the first movie to effectively present real and virtual worlds with people moving between them. This came to mind again recently when watching Avatar, which pulled off the same trick, perhaps by stealing some of the Matrix’s techniques.
