I thought that the Matrix was one of the great sci-fi films of all time. The second and third film, not so much. The Animatrix was great too, the Second Rennaisance was my favourite part.
I thought they were all good i didn't like the fight sequence between neo and agent Elrond (lol lotr joke) in the last one, if i wanted to watch DBZ i would get the series. other than that i had no qualms with the flicks
When I walked out of the theater after watching the Matrix, I was totally blown away by the idea of humans being grown to power the machines. I WANTED TO WAKE UP DAMMIT!!!!
But i remember the commercials for the matrix.. i was about 18 or so.. and no one knew anything about it... and so i thought it was about aliens and stuff...
I took my sister to go see it. And it just kinda... changed my life. I think i watched it 3 times in the theatre.
When the 2nd one came out i took my wife to see it. and some jackass kids where jumping over the seats and stuff after the movie (they were like 15 and such) and they bumped into her seat VERY hard... She has a bad back so... being rather strong willed, and loud. i told them to cut their crap... I'm a correctional officer.. and i used my "command voice" they were like "Wo simmer down neo." They of coarse said this after they were about 20 feet away though... so ~meh~
The Matrix was awesome. Reloaded was slightly less awesome. Revolutions almost made me cry, it was that bad. I would like to hear your theories on how Smith makes it into the real world, I've heard many, and they were all dumb.
I thought they were brilliant. My only complaint was keanu's acting. Imo he cant act. Watch his facial expressions and listen to his speech. its not believable. Maybe i nitpick too much. Yet i cant really see another actor playing the role.
