Can't believe this movie is almost 20 years old. It was way ahead of its time.

[@schwartzy65]

no it wasnt :) today nobody will ever do movies like this only remakes/boots or tv series from a old movies...

[@MaxDamage1984]

It was. Not only were the visual effects mindblowing for a 1999 movie, but back then if you'd talk about parallel universes or the idea that we might live in a computer simulation, they would've probably locked you in a mental institution. While today these things are plausible and are beeing investigated by top scientists.

It bears mentioning the actors in the Bourne movies (at least the first one) did actually learn how to fight. You can see it in some behind the scenes stuff. But this style is definitely much cooler. Too bad the Wachowskis never made another good movie.

[@RazeMengsk]

This is all my opinion but the Wachowskis wrote Cloud Atlas which was good and they wrote V for Vendetta which was also good. They also made a show called Sense8. I haven't seen it personally, but it's rated pretty good.

[@pp3k3jamail]

exactly Hollywood today is pure trash

[@codyrise5863]

As a life long fan of The Matrix, and after a very long period of depression and just all around mental health issues, the line, "he's beginning to believe" is really resonating with me. Despite what the oracle said, the belief Morpheus and Trinity had in Neo made him believe in himself. Neo wasn't 'the one', he chose to be the one. And the belief of a few loyal people helped him become the one. I feel like I am beginning to believe.

[@sheldoman]

YES!!! 100% agree with you my dude. That line is so good and I've been feeling it personally too.

[@sonicforcejijo]

Neo is the One. He is the anomaly in the program running the matrix, technically he is the bug/code error in the system. Imagine this, divide 10 by 3. It's 3.333 to infinity. Now multiply that by 3. It's 9.9999 to infinity. Whereas it should be 10, not 9.9999 to infinity. Where is the anomaly ? Once you subtract both the numbers, you shall get 0.00 ♾️ and then a 1. Like 0.000...001. That 1 is the anomaly, like a code error, that "ONE" is "NEO", an anagram of ONE.

In my opinion, The Matrix is probably the best movie ever to exist. I really love the fight scenes, no shaky cams, no quick shots, I fricken love the film to bits, I watch it every year and yet I always find new things to find in the film, maybe something I haven't learnt yet. It's a masterpiece :D

+schwartzy65 You're damn right, Even T2 was another Masterpiece by 1 of the greatest movie actor Arnold Schwarzenegger. The CGI, The explosion scenes, motorbike chase, Helicopter flying under a bridge, the pub scene, just everything was a great performance. Also you gotta check out the film 'True Lies', the same director who directed T2. Again another great and funny film :D

+Marchiz Productionz777 yes i have seen all arnolds and camerons work. arnold is the best ever, he is god among other actors :D

[@barrylyndon5552]

Idk about the absolute best. It's up there (and they used Keanu Revees acting...talent very well) but I think it might be slightly lacking in characterisation. Really that's the only noticeable fault I can think and it is definitely a masterpiece.

[@marchizproductions4137]

reymart christian Cruz The Matrixis one of those films you watch every year and you never get bored of it. The Algorithm (Story) reveals a lot of hidden meanings either a (Religious, political or a moral agenda) and it has a lot of occultic symbolism, secrets, reality, truth in soo many ways its only hidden when we don't watch it properly. Watch 'The Matrix Decoded' you'll be impressed with more of the info. 2 hour long video.

I love how all the fights scenes actually contribute to the plot and characters. The opening shows this isn’t a normal world, the training simulation shows how good a fighter Morpheus is and Neo has potential, the basement scene shows even a extraordinary fighter like Morpheus is outmatched by the dangerous Smith/machines, making the subway fight all the more rewarding for Neo to finally rise up and win

[@nicksomma]

You should be questioning your existence if you can't connect the dots there your first time watching this movie...

[@thegoddess1694]

For some reason I feel as if it was supposed to be taken as an insult. Because being empty sounds impossible and counter intuitive. Maybe the buddhist were more referring to peace than emptiness. A kind of calm, steady flow despite having attachments because at anytime you can let them go if need be or correct them. This would be more of an accomplishment to achieve in my mind than what would amount to simply running away from the problem and acting like it doesnt exist. So perhaps smith was actually insulting Neo by saying he is empty. As to imply he is still empty. This is something Neo already knows but he is beginning to correct it. But he calls smith out on his own as well. Which angers him as it seems smith also seems to know how much of a negative that is. Neither of them are at peace and they both acknowledged that in those two simple lines. Smith wants what Neo wants essentially. To be the One. To achieve true peace. And perhaps this is why he really will enjoy beating Mr Anderson. Which means he has acknowledged at that moment that Neo has the capacity to achieve his same goal before he does. Perhaps this is why he asks later why does he keep on fighting when he should just give up. As smith seems to not have some crucial element apart of human consciousness to achieve his goal and therefore cant comprehend Neo's behavior. He is basically saying why are you so much better than I am. As if it isn't fair.

W. L. Orodor Calaerchon In this scene, „empty“ doesn‘t mean that their magazines are just empty. Here, it means that both their existences are empty. They‘re not existent, for they are currently living in a dream world which doesn‘t allow existence. Therefore, they‘re both not fully existent people who are living in that moment. They‘re empty as well on the inside as on the outside.

[@Vikingr4Jesus5919]

@@lukase3600 Really mate? Can't take a joke? As for your reasoning, there's some gaps. For one, the Matrix is real (in the movie). Agent Smith may not be a real person - that doesn't mean he isn't real. He's as real as you Firewall in your computer. The Matrix just makes him blend in like a human. And although Neo's appearance is his digital self when inside the Matrix (like a virus, in a way), he was a human bred by the machines and is therefore just as real as the machine. But ultimately, this lines up with the quote of the movie, as Morpheus said. "What is real?" Or should I say "What is empty?"

Man, these fight scenes are still extremely entertaining. Not only entertaining but they just hold up so damn well, they’re not 100% timeless to me because the John wick movies of today kinda set that new standard of what is great action directing. But these fight scenes between Neo and Agent smith are legitimately flawless and just light years ahead of what came before and immediately after this movie, it’s quite incredible.

[@gamingoutloud293]

In my opinion John Wick action scenes compared to matrix are not that good.

[@byrondouglasdean]

[@electronix6898]

You know, it blows my mind how we've gone backwards in terms of action scenes. This movie came out in 1999, over 20 years ago and yet somehow despite the level of technology at our disposal, we gotten worse with our action, writing, plot, set design, everything. How is that possible?

[@SoLoboo]

When everything is about feelings and inclusion and pushing a political message instead of making good cinema, this where we arrive.

[@soundyg7441]

It seems like the action scenes in matrix 1 are just the result of a group of ludicrously talented people working at their absolute A game, who happened to be brought together at the perfect time to produce something magic. Folks like the chap who responded before me seem to be under the impression that a scene like this is “easy”, as if Hollywood just needs to try a little bit harder. But the reality is that it’s insanely hard and requires extraordinary dedication and a heavy dose of luck to pull off.

[@Ashonti_ixv]

@@soundyg7441 With that being said, shouldn’t they have taking a bit more time with the new film then?

[@soundyg7441]

@@Ashonti_ixv I guess so. Apparently they considered it because parts of it are essentially “unfinished”, according to comments I’ve read from the director. But then these films are enormous undertakings that involve lots of super complicated deadlines. I highly doubt it’s possible to just hit the brakes to fix things. Re-shoots are notoriously expensive, and unless there were capable people ready to be parachuted in, perhaps it wasn’t even guaranteed that M4’s action could be improved? My point is; film projects like this are insanely tough. Absolutely insane. And the success of M1’s action and the relative failure of M4’s action really can’t be boiled down to,”Hollywood just needs to try harder!” You can’t throw money to get A+ craft

[@SoLoboo]

@@soundyg7441 And what you just did is made a whole lot of assumptions based in nothing. I said they focus on the wrong things instead of making good movies. If they took as much energy put into pushing agendas into taking the time to nail the choreography and movie story line, maybe we might actually have a chance to have something as good as a movie that came out 2 decades ago with more ancient technology. Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

[@trev9168]

One of those moments in films where the coolness level might not be seen again for decades

[@marianoyuba3736]

In my opinion, this is EASILY the best fight in all of the trilogy, and one of the best fight scenes ever made in its own right. Brutal, desperate, stylish, kinetic, constantly shifting the balance of power; this is what every movie fight should be like. (Not talking about the kung-fu, but the mood and editing) It's beyond me how the makers of this fight could make such boring, hum-drum fight scenes such as the Chateau fight in the next one.

[@IconicClips]

Interesting opinion...

[@Howlingburd19]

My favorite fight ever :3

[@lenks0]

The Chateau fight was arguably more stylish and kinetic. What makes this (and any) fight great is first of all that the fighting is merely a tool for telling the audience about the character(s). Notice how the character Neo at the beginning of the fight is not the same as Neo at the end. "He's beginning to believe" sums it up nicely. This is the most important thing, but also good is when fights have emotional content. The audience has real reason to think the agents are practically invincible and that Neo can't win, and that tension makes us emotionally invested in the fight. The reason the Chateau feels boring is there's no character development, no emotional content, never for a second do we think Neo might lose. It's as if the director looked at the script and said "ok, the movie is a little flat around here so we should add some kind of fight sceen here."

[@darktiozao]

But even in the Chateau fight there was little development, Neo learned that he can't block a blade with his hand without bleeding a bit.

[@smithcubs]

@@darktiozao I think it was more so that some programs can surprise him, because he can definitely block edges, but who is doing the swinging.

[@TheHolyMongolEmpire]

This scene alone is 800 times better than anything that was in the horrible new movie.

[@mujiha]

What I find most interesting about this battle is the fact that Neo’s performance in this fight is based on his unshakable belief that he is in fact the One. Through all of the kicks, punches, slams, and combos he endured during this fight he has to maintain that belief in himself. Smith slams him against a wall several times and mixes him up with his incredible superhuman strength and any normal person would take a few of those punches and eventually be like “ok this is impossible there’s no way I can win” and then that’s right when they lose, because your abilities in the matrix are based entirely on your belief of them. Neo doesn’t buckle once through this entire ass whooping. Not when he gets mega sonic gut punched a million times in the stomach. Not when he gets smashed into the wall against the train tunnel, and not when he’s getting strangled and seconds away from being run over by a train, one of the most violent and scary ways to die. And you can tell the way that the cruel and aggressive way that Smith is fighting is to inflict mental damage, and let Neo soak in the inevitable hopelessness of his situation. The whole time and even when death seems imminent, he has to know, believe and maintain “I can do this beat this agent in a fight.” Then when he finally truly begins to believe at the very end, he realizes he doesn’t even have to fight these agents to destroy. This scene tells a story and dramatically develops Neo’s character with minimal dialogue and under the guise of a fight. I just think that some incredible writing on the part of the wachiwskis

[@IconicClips]

Well said and written @mujiha. You have read quite a lot into this fight scene but what you say makes sense. The belief that there is no spoon is probably running through his mind at this point too. "...your abilities in the matrix are based entirely on your belief of them" that is a great statement @mujiha. This too can be said about life in general and the matrix that is being built around us.

[@GothBootsyCollins]

It's certainly a testament to the power of faith, as there's good reason to believe Morpheus was always wrong about the prophesy and that 'The One' is in fact Agent Smith. Born in the Matrix, eventually able to alter it's contents as he sees fit, reducing every inhabitant of the program to 'One' consciousness.

From that first scene with Trinity, till the end when Neo takes off, I am pretty sure my jaw was on the floor the whole time.

This Is my favorite fight from the series. The main reason? The stakes. At this point, Neo Is still very vulnerable. Sure he Is a badass and did some impressive things already, but you can feel he barely made it, since he's still not The One nor on equal footing with an Agent. The score, the choreography, the fact he gets hit as much or even more than he hits Smith, being on the verge of losing at any point. This, my friend, Is action perfection. A fight that can go either way.

[@concordetconstabulary219]

The irony here is that the shot just before they fight has more emotional resonance than most movies today. People forget that what makes this fight amazing and so cathartic is the arc itself that led to this. Neo is an average joe thrust into a bigger world he can barely comprehend and as the story progresses he grows from a faithless average joe to a man of some faith fighting the very system itself that once enslaved him. People forget that and usually just shut off their brains for movies. It’s sad that this action movie from 20 years ago has more substance than even the greatest blockbusters of today.

[@zuriyel5368]

They had Hong Kong director and fight choreographer Yuen Woo-Ping for the 3 Matrix movies to choreograph, direct the fight scenes and intentionally designed distinctive fighting styles for each character. That includes taking Reeves' neck and spinal injuries and Weaving's hip injury into account when coming up with their fighting styles. They did tell him what they wanted to happen though, Yuen simply had the freedom as to how to go about it. I think it's even more impressive when you think of how production gets shut down for a period of time, when a lead actor gets injured.
