Portland Oregonian
The Matrix slams you back in your chair, pops open your eyes and leaves your jaw hanging slack in amazement.

The A.V. Club
The Wachowskis do it so playfully well, keeping The Matrix's potentially confusing plot intelligible, intelligent, and suspenseful, that it doesn't matter.

L.A. Weekly
Bill Pope's swooping, noir-inflected cinematography is wonderfully complemented by Owen Paterson's inventive production design, a great soundtrack and the best fight choreography this side of Hong Kong. And even if this isn't "Blade Runner," it is very cool shit.

ReelViews
Kinetic, atmospheric, visually stunning, and mind-bending.

There's a kind of liberating, almost transforming energy in this film; it lights you up and sends you out all giddy with silliness.
