The Matrix

1999 • 136 minutes

About this movie

Keanu Reeves, Laurence Fishburne, Carrie-Anne Moss and Hugo Weaving star in the heart-stopping, adrenalin pumping, mind-altering, endorphin kick into a new millenium. The Matrix. But what is The Matrix? No one can concieve it, no one can be told what it is. It has to be seen, to be understood. This is the kind of future you don't dream about.

Ratings and reviews

I saw this at theatres 14 times when it was released. I sunk every dollar of my savings into it, and it's been consistently the first movie I buy on every new format it's released on (I even own the HD-DVDs and PSP UMD versions!) This is *my* idea of a perfect movie. I've seen it hundreds, if not thousands of times. I know every line and inflection, every shot, every musical cue. This is the Wachowski's Mona Lisa. Watch it more than once. It is worth understanding and appreciating. 5/5

This movie is legendary and iconic. When it came out in the late 90s it was unbelievably cool. Never seen movie this good. The 2 sequels however did not live up to this amazing film and Matrix Resurrections was so refreshing as it was much truer to this movie and I was so happy when I watched it recently to see they had finally made a sequel that did this amazing movie justice, This movie is literally the best movie of all time, nothing these days compares to it.

Great movie, but the streaming quality isn't brilliant, I don''t think this is in 1080p or even 720p.
