THE MATRIX MOVIE REVIEW | 41:46 - 44:41
The Matrix Movie Description:
Neo (Keanu Reeves) believes that Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne), an elusive figure considered to be the most dangerous man alive, can answer his question -- What is the Matrix? Neo is contacted by Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss), a beautiful stranger who leads him into an underworld where he meets Morpheus. They fight a brutal battle for their lives against a cadre of viciously intelligent secret agents. It is a truth that could cost Neo something more precious than his life.
The Matrix is a 1999 science fiction action film written and directed by the Wachowskis. It is the first installment in The Matrix film series, starring Keanu Reeves, Laurence Fishburne, Carrie-Anne Moss, Hugo Weaving, and Joe Pantoliano. It depicts a dystopian future in which humanity is unknowingly trapped inside a simulated reality, the Matrix, which intelligent machines have created to distract humans while using their bodies as an energy source. When computer programmer Thomas Anderson, under the hacker alias "Neo", uncovers the truth, he "is drawn into a rebellion against the machines" along with other people who have been freed from the Matrix.
The Matrix is an example of the cyberpunk subgenre of science fiction. The Wachowskis' approach to action scenes was influenced by Japanese animation and martial arts films, and the film's use of fight choreographers and wire fu techniques from Hong Kong action cinema influenced subsequent Hollywood action film productions. The film popularized a visual effect known as "bullet time", in which the heightened perception of certain characters is represented by allowing the action within a shot to progress in slow-motion while the camera appears to move through the scene at normal speed, allowing the sped-up movements of certain characters to be perceived normally. While some critics have praised the film for its handling of difficult subjects, others have said the deeper themes are largely overshadowed by its action scenes.
The Matrix was first released in the United States on March 31, 1999, and grossed over $460 million worldwide. It received largely positive reviews from critics, who praised its innovative visual effects, action sequences, cinematography and entertainment value, and won four Academy Awards (Best Visual Effects, Best Film Editing, Best Sound and Best Sound Editing), as well as several other accolades, including BAFTA Awards and Saturn Awards. The film is considered to be among the best science fiction films of all time, and was added to the National Film Registry for preservation in 2012. A fourth film, titled The Matrix Resurrections, is scheduled for release on December 22, 2021.

Watching This Movie Now As An Adult, Having The Understanding I Have Of Certain Things Really Felt Like I Was Watching This Movie For The First Time Again!

[@barrytuck2697]

The first movie they directed was Bound in 1996

[@Rickolee]

When Neo came into the room and Cipher jumped, that's when he was programming himself into the matrix, to talk to the Smith. At least I think.

[@williamsmith5340]

One of my favorite movies

[@jhonnymark7581]

Bro. One day, watch Buckaroo Banzai. You won't regret it.

[@matsv201]

Its worth saying that Matrix got inspration from a lot of other older movies that is less known in the western world. One of those it got a lot of inspiration from is Ghost in the Shell. While its a very diffrent movie, both sceens and some core concepts are very simular, some times close to identical. The lobby scene in the matrix is pretty much a live action remake of Ghost in the Shell

[@davidphelps5857]

I wouldn't say Agent Smith is my favourite character but Hugh Weaving's portrayal is impeccable. The tone of voice, the cadence, and the pauses. It is the pauses that sell it. He says more with a split second pause than many actors can say in minutes of dialogue.

[@thebamboo8034]

Hugo Weaving* ^.^

[@Johonnac]

Hugo Weaving is also quite good in an earlier Australian film with a young Russell Crowe called “Proof” (1991)

[@midnighthour733]

He really sold the fact that his character is a computer program....I think they are the 'Security Program' for the Matrix and he sounds like an automated computer voice.

[@HellionSol]

Very comparable to Alan Rickman in Severus Snape. So much presence on screen, hanging onto every syllable.

[@birch5757]

@Rheumattica it's your opinion, but not a very good one. Agent Smith is maybe the most interesting character in the trilogy. You seem a bit angry and spiteful, buddy. Maybe chill out a bit.

[@ZealotZeke]

14:41 Fun fact, Mell: The battery thing wasn't in the original script. Originally, humans were supposed to be the neural network machines needed in order to process, thus why they put humans in the Matrix. The human body would make a *terrible* battery. As Futurama said, potatoes are better batteries than humans will ever be. However, one executive basically said, "I don't understand what a network is, so I assume no one else will. Make people batteries, because everyone understands batteries," and the Wachowski's were literally forced to change that detail. BONUS FUN FACT: In the Matrix itself, they didn't just tint things green, they also quite literally dyed all the clothes a light green color for added effect. XD

[@razorfett147]

Yea its a shame they didnt stick to their guns with the neural network concept, as that actually makes alot more sense than the human battery thing (considering there would be no need for humans to be concious for the power cell concept to work)

[@DevilsM4rk]

😕 this makes so much more sense, it's literally called The "Matrix". That studio exec is a certified clown...

[@ScottThePisces]

@@razorfett147 while a neural network sounds obvious to us now, back in 1999 it would have been just another complexity for the regular non internet using customer to get their head around, the whole plot itself was mindblowingly baffling at first.

Bro, I was a senior in high school when this movie came out. It released during my senior spring break. Me and my buddies had an epic week of partying and ended it off by watching The Matrix in the theater. I'll never forget it. Changed the way movies were made forever.

[@SandraMorris51]

I just rewatched this a few months ago and it's interesting how even after repeated viewings over the years that I still find little things I missed. Every time..

[@sweetrain50]

It really did!! It was an instant game changer!!

[@mr_k4tz]

A lot of the ‘bullet time’ shots seem cheesy now simply because it’s been imitated so much. When we first saw this in cinemas, it was absolutely nuts and completely original.

[@siftwram]

Reminds me of when I saw someone call Seinfeld “generic” not realizing it was completely original and started most of the generic sitcom tropes

[@ShadowyFox_86]

It's so funny because I remember that even when we were shown how it was done, we still couldn't believe how it was done.

[@EvHervey]

Technically, the Oracle didn't tell Neo that he is "The One". She got him to tell her what he was already thinking.

[@therearenoshortcuts9868]

@@BadassVideos yup she gave him the hint too when he broke the vase: "would u still break it if i didn't tell u? " (aka if she straight up told him that he is The One - that would actually cause him to mess up)

[@charlestonobryant807]

Also she mentions “maybe you’re waiting for something. A new life..” he was essentially reborn in the Matrix

[@ShadowyFox_86]

When the Oracle says "maybe your next life," we see that happen. Neo gets killed by Agent Smith. Then he comes back from the dead and becomes The One, able to fully manipulate the Matrix.

[@krautgazer]

The whole thing about Neo being the one is implicitly explained in the Oracle scene with the vase. She explains the concept of self-fulfillment prophecy: would he had broken the vase had she not told him beforehand? She truly does not know if he's the one or not, neither does Morpheus, which later tells Trinity: "do you now know the difference between knowing the path and WALKING the path?". They were simply betting on Neo but he fulfilled the prophecy himself by simply believing he was the one. If I remember correctly, Neo wasn't even the first one Morpheus believed in. There were others before him.

[@charlesland3877]

I'm not sure exactly which way you meant the last part so I'm going to answer both ways I could interpret. 1) Neo wasn't the first that morpheus thought was the one. 2) In the 3rd film the architect said in each version of the world there was the one, but no one ever said there was more than one " the one" at a time in the same world. It would undo the whole "the one" thing.

[@krautgazer]

@@charlesland3877 Exactly, that's what I meant. There's a "chosen one" but they didn't know who that person was, so they believed in others before. Neo had to prove himself as the actual "one".

[@DP-um1ck]

About the oracle. Her most important line is actually: "You have the gift but it looks like you're waiting for something..". Implying he has the potential to be the one but since he doesn't believe it himself he won't be.

[@Salah-fq2wi]

He was waiting for Trinity.

[@BloodSportA2]

The original Matrix is a perfect ramp of a movie, and as far as "Hero's Journey" movies are concerned it still doesn't have many contenders all these years later. Always loved that Morpheus avoided the Obi-Wan treatment that mentors usually get in these stories, to the point where the entire last act is all about *not* letting him die. Just gave the stakes more heart than if they were just taking down a doomsday weapon.

[@michelejones4844]

The Oracle originally told Neo he wasnt the One because at that time, he didnt believe he was the One and thus couldnt be. He needed to believe he was the One. Great reaction.

[@Subxenox15]

Trinity was watching Neo for a very long time, it doesn't convey it very well why she loves him, but that's why. She fell in love with him before they even met.

[@dnllrnt]

It's insane that Keanu trained for damn near 6 months, 7 days a week while recovering from back surgery. He's truly the 🐐.

[@johnsensebe3153]

Neo wasn't the One when he was with the Oracle, because he didn't believe it. Belief is key. He didn't believe he was the One until he was shot by Smith and refused to believe he was dead.

[@shainewhite2781]

Saw this with my brother and sister in the theater and it blew me away! Holy Crap, it's amazing! It made $400 million dollars at the box office and won Best Visual Effects, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing and Best Film Editing.

[@charlesderosas5577]

well deserved too.

[@TimotheeReacts]

GREAT FILM AND GREAT SHIRT!!

[@Archphoenix1]

so you know, the matrix has this greenish lighting, if he is outside the matrix it has normal lighting

[@tonykittykilla28]

as much as I love these movies, my favorite is actually the Animatrix, ESPECIALLY The Second Renaissance...it answers the question about "how and why did everything get like this?" and also explains why there is so much that humanity isn't allowed to know by the time we get to Neo's part of their history

[@petrhanke8644]

Yeah a horrifc nightmare fuel especially the end of the war

[@michaeldorsey1394]

To answer how did the first one become unplugged? The answer is Kid. The boy you see in the matrix 2 & 3. His story was in the animatrix and it showed how he found out the world was off like neo did but basically jumped off a building while also believing somehow he’d also not die but wake up which he did. He woke up in his pod like neo but on his own and got saved like the rest.

[@michaeldorsey1394]

Thanks Mell. Been having a hard time lately for some reason this helped.

[@michaeldorsey1394]

@@THEMIMICRYM yes exactly. Also the one in reloaded who yelled out to neo to give him the spoon before he left. The matrix experience back then was epic. We didn’t have unlimited internet or smartphones we had to go places for the information like when the hype before matrix 2 was coming you had to buy the soundtrack because it had secret stuff on it if you put it into your computer. Also the animatrix was released which had 9 stories that basically explained everything and to top it off you had to buy enter the matrix for Xbox or ps2 because the wachowskis filmed an entire extra hour of film for part two that was included in the game that tied into part 2 and setup part 3. I personally lived my best life back then say what you want but the ride was incredible.

[@philippesauve9376]

This is going to be some gourmet shit right there!!!

[@victorsos100]

I really enjoyed The Trilogy plus Enter the Matrix, The Animatrix, and The Path of Neo!! I know part of the fanbase doesn't like parts of 2 and 3 but as a whole it is pretty DAMMM good overall. I remember being in the theater watching 2 and 3 the audience enjoying them.

[@shawnhopkins2852]

im sure this has been said before, but the original idea of the Matrix was that human brains were used as processors, not batteries, but the executives didnt think people would understand processors in 1999, so they changed it. literally anything would be a better source of energy than a human body, including the food needed to feed the body.

[@willgold9989]

“Why do my eyes hurt?” “You’ve never used them before.”

[@soulance8342]

I would say my favorite character is Morpheus. When I was younger it was Neo but Neo is only possible because Morpheus saw the potential and pushed him.

[@Eric_BroArmy13]

For me, Agent Smith is both my favorite character and a character that exasperated me to no end. Which means, Hugh Weaving did a brilliant job 😎👍

[@ShadowyFox_86]

In the scene when Neo is getting "flushed," the robot is essentially unplugging him because Morpheus' group has made the system recognize Neo as dead. When humans are dead and no longer of use to the machines, they're disposed of. Since Neo had been tracked, the ship could go right to where he was flushed.

[@KyleeSaurus]

Agent Smith knew which room because it's the same one Trinity was in at the start of the movie

[@radwolf76]

To answer one of your questions, when the Agents get "killed" it does revert back to whoever they had possessed. You can see this when they're on the roof during the Morpheus rescue. The Agent takes over the helicopter pilot, but when Trinity pulls the "Dodge this" shot, you get a bit of slowmo as the Agent falls, but before he hits the ground you get that Matrix modem scream sound effect and a sparky lightshow as he turns back to the helicopter pilot.

[@princetopher]

What inspired this movie you ask, Melo? Dark City

[@omegagilgamesh]

Another fun fact: reportedly in the original draft, humans plugged into the Matrix were originally supposed to be a sort of collective CPU to help the machines be more intelligent and self aware. Executives felt not enough of the audience would understand WTF a "CPU" was (remember, this was 1999) so they changed it to "humans as batteries," even though the Wachowskis, IIRC, admitted they knew when writing this that a human would need more energy to be kept alive than what their bodies would produce.

[@hornherodog]

My personal fan theory is that Agent Smith is the VERY FIRST One, and him existing is why his program when nuts.

[@Mad_Oph]

The funny thing is that Morpheus' lesson, "stop trying to hit me and hit me", gets echoed throughout the rest of the film whenever Neo starts overthinking or letting his doubts cloud his ability. It's just a really cool throughline that every time Neo fails in the original film it's due to him getting in his own way and succeeding when he realizes he needs to be present in the moment.

[@baka9466]

Sadly the Wachowskis are pretty hit or miss, but Sense8 is amazing. It's a Netflix show and they kept trying to cancel it and then bring it back just long enough to tie up the plot, but that's worth a watch and I don't think I've ever seen anyone react to that show

The oracle told the truth, at that point Neo was not the one, he only became the one after he "died" and Trinitys kiss brought him back, which is shown by him finally seeing the matrix in code. The Oracle even said "it's like you're waiting for something, your next life maybe".

When i was in my teens i actually stopped a robbery in my neighborhood after i heard a voice calling me in the middle of the night. I was sleeping and a male voice told me to wake up and look out of the window so i did, and there was a man dressed in black holding a crowbar near a store that's in front of our house. He started hitting the door several times without success, i saw him walking back & forth like he didn't know what to do but went back to hitting the door several times. Anyway, I called my mom, my mom called my aunt and she called the owners of the store who called the police. It's crazy but there were two officers very near so they arrived quickly at the place. Sadly, when the robber saw the police car lights, he ran away. I don't know if he was ever found, but that happened to me one time and i still can't explain what was the voice i heard and why i was chosen to stop that man from robbing that store. My mom told me not to say anything to the police as i was a minor, but i saw the man who did it, and my description could have helped catch him. Btw, days later, someone did manage to break in but from the back. They opened a hole on the wall and stole all the food. 😕

Also, the Oracle never told Neo he was not the one. To quote Morpheus, "she told you what you needed to hear". She told Neo: "Sorry kid, you have the gift, but it looks like you are waiting on something." That is a "yes, but...", not a "no."

Not sure your feeling on reacting to shows, but Lana Wachowski also did the show Sense8 for Netflix. Honestly, I LOVE that show. It's interesting and a bit progressive without being in your face about it. There is amazing action and storytelling and it would be fair to warn of nudity which can just be edited out. I highly recommend watching it at least. Was filmed in 8 different countries and Lana requested all be shot locally so the show was cancelled after 2 seasons, and it was probably one of the most expensive shows to make.

I'm just gonna continue this thread as I watch (sorry, it's my favorite trilogy, and you're one of my favorite reactors 😅 The greenish hue you noticed around 7:00 is actually always there anytime or scene where they are inside the matrix. Everything in the real world is way more blue. I only noticed this when I watched on shrooms😂

[@MindsWide]

also while I'm at it, thank you for not posting some bs 20 or 30 minute cut of this. 40 is perf for YT

This film is a classic. Please react to The Matrix Resurrections. It's on HBO MAX.

I worked as a PA on the set in SF and trust me, they went all out on the 4th movie 🍿 I’ll be in SF tomorrow for the BG showing. Enjoyed your reaction

My favorite was actually the third one, Revolutions. It's the only one I've seen that decided to be at least a LITTLE self aware of how ridiculous the plot was to the point that they let it end on what was basically a Dragon Ball Z battle with an explosion and a rainbow.

Chappelle definitely ruined that scene for me too. "Nah nigga it's Earl, I need your stapler."

My favorite is Trinity. Imagine how crazy she could fuck with her Matrix powers.

6:05 the fart sound effect made my day😂

[@pantryraidz7609]

That fart joke got me good not gunna lie.

[@giannisksanthopoulos4300]

Many people dont realised, but Trinity has a huge part of Neo being the One. If she didnt love him.... he is not gonna be the one

[@MrTuubster]

Never saw a trailer for this movie. I went in blind at the cinema. Blew my mind!

Matrix is one of my favorite films of all time. The trilogy is great but this is definitely the best one. I had to watch them over and over again to catch all the little details you miss the first time you see it. Thankfully, these films are so good, you don't mind watching them over and over again. This one especially.

Interesting sound effect at (6:04) 😂
