Remarkably stunning visual feast following computer hacker Neo (Keanu Reeves) who discovers from an idol, Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) that the world he lives in is actually a computer-generated world that is controlled by machines, who are attempted to be brought down by a rebellion in an underground city where they build their shelter. Upon Morpheus' ship, the Nebuchadnezzar, he encounters romance with crew companion Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss), and raucous villainy with digi-agent Smith (Hugo Weaving).
With visual effects that anyone would feel jealous of and originality that snatches your bone and twists you along a dazzling ride, this feels like these characters are actually drawing you into the universe and describing it clearly while you're right by their side. Don't miss this!
