This is a great movie. It has vitual action, like the Matrix, great acting and f/x, and makes you think at the end, like Contact. It is kind of like the Matrix, but not a ripoff. While it has similar elements, it's not about action or a quest like Neo's; it's mostly story-focussed, which is less common in movies these days. It also had exciting parts, but not just mindless action. If you like movies with interesting stories and twists plus action and suspense, rent this movie, but make sure the ending isn't given away.

The Matrix is just awesome. It's got a good plot too. You might be a little disappointed with the end, but I didn't have much of a problem with it. The special effects are amazing. It's nice to see Keanu Reeves in a good movie again. Laurence Fishbourne is cool as usual as Morpheus. Don't analyze the plot too much. Parts were dumb, but I didn't care. I was too excited too. DO NOT WAIT UNTIL VIDEO, THE EFFECTS ARE TOO GREAT. It would lose a lot on video. Just see it.

The story "Dangerous Liaisons" is a great one. And whether or not you could take this movie seriously, it shows. Kids would be grossed out by this movie or bored by it. Adults would have a similar reaction. By as teen movie, this works as well as Scream. And it's nice to see a "teen movie" with both a good story and minimal violence, unlike most horror movies that are released. This movie is a little trashy at times, but it shows in the end that the things that happened were not okay. It was not glamorized. It destroyed all the characters. Anyway, this a great movie, it has funny parts, and if you're a teen, go see it. Especially if you like Sarah Michelle Geller or Reese Witherspoon.
