First half was pretty interesting, the second just Hong Kong combat. ( )

Bien que l'histoire ne soit en rien ma tasse de thé et qu'elle m'ait de ce fait échappé en partie, il est difficile de rester indifférent à la beauté des images de The Matrix, à leur fluidité, leur énergie folle, à la beauté chorégraphique des combats. L'esthétisme du film, assez éblouisssant à plusieurs endroits, justifie à lui seul qu'on le regarde.
Une découverte. ( )

Still good solid fun, except for the last scenes and the power of love. ( )

An unhappy programmer finds out... some stuff that would be spoilers.

Huh. Well that hasn't aged well. After seeing it a few times, the once-mind-bending science fiction has nothing to offer, and instead I just notice how it doesn't hold up to too much thought. And after the last decade, the movie's once-awesomely-innovative style just looks like every other bad action movie. It's really only got two good things left: Mr. Smith, and Hugo Weaving.

15 years later and still pretty good. Old and new fans alike will agree that this was a uniquely entertaining feature film. ( )
