For an exposition dump, it has a talented enough actor and good enough effects to be engaging, but it isn't good exposition, it's a dump of exposition. Metropolis (the movie that both The Matrix and Dark City ape in terms of themes and style) by Fritz Lang has a masterclass in exposition using visuals and music cues to create and exposit a world unlike anything else ever seen before on film. Hell, even Dark City does a far superior job at expositing about its world without dumps (until the mini-dump by Kiefer Sutherland at the end).

Having an actor who has a voice that is so beautiful, well spoken and deep as Lawrence's, really helps sell the whole scene. Lawrence has the kind of voice suitable to narrate anything, even a nature documentary, and make it sound beautiful and interesting. His cool appearance, his cold factual delivery of such well written lines is a powerful combo. Because the lines it gets to deliver are incredible: "What is real? How do you define real? If you are talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, taste and see then real is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain." That was the kind of thing that blew audience minds back in 1999. The kind of thing that makes you raise a hand and go: "Now wait hang on a sec..... [thinks about this]..... Oh shit >_> ... O_O whoaa.. " To top that off, the excellent mixed emotions acting of Neo as he listens to everything explained to him, and the incredible visuals of the scene as everything is explained. Like the absolute stark white room they start off in, moving through the TV, the visions of the real world, a human as a battery, etc. This scene is cinema history.

This is one of the best sequences in the history of Science Fiction movies. The only change I wished they would have made was the line "combined with a form of fusion". Beautifully done. Having experienced a similar horrifying shocking reality myself, Neo's mental breakdown was right on point.
