Good plot? You're outta your mind, that thing is a giant turd with no worthwhile attributes. If I wanna see those kind of effects I'll watch some Kung Fu movies and enjoy the added benefit of much better acting.

Are you out our your mind?

I could understand someone saying it's overrated but to say its a pile of shit or or a gian turd is a bit much. Seems like people just like to hate to be a contrarian.

And there is no fucking kung fu movie that has the same special effects.

I hated it and thought it was terrible, but that's because I prefer a good story over flashy special effects. To me the story in the Matrix was weak and the acting was even worse. I was really disappointed in Lawrence Fishburne who I normally really enjoy. To me, The Matrix was all style over substance, hence why I think it was fucking terrible.

^^^^^^^^^^THis is one movie I can't get or find. I read a biography book on him and it raved about Keanu in it. One of his brightest flashes of acting.


Probably in my Top 10 and the soundtrack isn't half bad either. You can find that movie pretty much anywhere that sells movies online.

That's your opinion. I personally think the story was pretty fucking good.

It's my opinion too. There really isn't anything more than the poorly fleshed out skeleton of a story there at all and it's pretty apparent from the acting of some of the decent actors involved (like Fishburne) that they didn't feel it was a worthwhile expenditure of effort. By the way, the effects I was referring to are the fight effects which it's common knowledge that they were taken directly from thousands of Kung Fu movies that have been using that stuff for decades.

I said the movie had GOOD acting and GREAT effects. The acting got more stale with each installment IMHO.
