"An eye-popping but incoherent extravaganza of morphing and superhuman martial arts."

—

Variety

""Wake up, Neo." It brought Keanu Reeves a-woah-ing back to our collective consciousness; it knocked us flat with balletic battle scenes and mind-scrambling plot"

—

Total Film

"The martial arts stunts that are its single strongest selling point."

—

The New York Times

"A visually dazzling cyberadventure, full of kinetic excitement, but it retreats to formula just when it's getting interesting."

—

Roger Ebert

"A wildly cinematic futuristic thriller that is determined to overpower the imagination, The Matrix combines traditional science-fiction premises with spanking new visual technology in a way that almost defies description."

—

Los Angeles Times

"The deliciously inventive Wachowskis have delivered the syntax for a new kind of movie: technically mind-blowing, style merged perfectly with content and just so damn cool."
