My Favorite Films of 1999 (25 movies items)" "This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe.

What your favorite movie (really) says about you.. (57 movies items)"If The Matrix is your favorite movie.....then you do drugs, unquestionably. You don't give a shit about reality, who needs reality, we aren't even in reality dude! You would like quantum physics if you gave it a chance, which is basically what this movie is about, but you have taken too much ecstasy to truly understand those pesky particles. You remember many nights taking the red pill, then the blue pill, and then another red pill, and then another blue pill, and rolling until morning, ha!"
Watched films in 2022 (175 movies items)"13.9. HBO Uusintakatselu. Wachowskin veljesten (nyk. siskosten) maailman tärkein ja siistein tieteistoiminta on liki kaksi vuosikymmentä viimekerrasta aika tavalla turhauttavampaa seurattavaa, kuin kuvittelin. On aivan liian ilmeistä, että sen päälimmäisin tehtävä on olla nimenomaisesti siisti ja suureellisen syvällinen, mutta oikeasti se on paria kelvollista toimintakohtausta lukuunottamatta vain tylsä ja naurettavan iloton.

The city is the launching point for The Resistance against the Machines that threaten their freedom. Why you wouldn’t want to visit It would mean that you are in The Matrix. Hopefully you made the right choice."
Cornerstones of Action Cinema II: 21st Century (16 movies items)"Whenever I think of the turn of the millennium cinema, I think of greenish hues, long black overcoats and aggressive rock music. To be perfectly honest, my own feelings toward The Matrix are lukewarm at best. The spiels about the chose one, the monochromatic visual style and so-called cool that was mostly appealing to the nerdiest (or the coolest) kid on my block were always offputting at best. But there is no denying that the Wachowskis turned the action game on its head. Everyone wanted to e"
“'The Matrix' may not be one of the very greatest examples of its genre (like '2001', 'Metropolis', 'Blade Runner', 'Back to the Future', 'Star Wars Original Trilogy', 'Alien' and 'Aliens'), but that it is revolutionary in how its visuals and use of sound broke boundaries like had never been done before cannot be denied.
It is not a film to be seen if people want character depth or relationship depth, with the forced and underdeveloped love subplot between Neo and Trinity being 'The Matrix's' sole weak spot. This ended up not being that huge a problem for me because everything else is so well executed.
Particularly striking about 'The Matrix' is its production values. Simply put, the film looks amazing in its audacious production design, dazzling special effects that are” read more
