Reviews

Portland Oregonian - Shawn Levy
The Matrix slams you back in your chair, pops open your eyes and leaves your jaw hanging slack in amazement.
90
The A.V. Club - Keith Phipps
The Wachowskis do it so playfully well, keeping The Matrix's potentially confusing plot intelligible, intelligent, and suspenseful, that it doesn't matter.
90
L.A. Weekly - Manohla Dargis
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 - James Berardinelli
Kinetic, atmospheric, visually stunning, and mind-bending.

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