Okay, so I’ve never seen The Matrix until now. I know. No, I know. I KNOW. I’m behind in the times. My coworker finally lent it to me, and demanded I watch it. Thanks to him, I’ve finally seen the cult classic everyone quotes from all the time.
I’d like to start by saying that I totally understand why so many people love the movie. It must have been awesome when it first came out. It’s a cool movie. I wonder if kids these days still love watching it. Any readers younger than fifteen want to weigh-in? Matrix–yay or nay?
Anyway, I liked the idea of the movie, and the guy who played the unMatrixed computer dude was super delicious. If you haven’t seen The Matrix (though I doubt there’s very many of you), then I recommend you go see it. It’s a good time. I’ve been warned against seeing the second. I’m not even quite sure why there is a second movie. The first seemed to have a definite ending. I’m not sure how it’ll continue without being annoying.
Verdict: Yay.
