This movie would be good if the director kept the special effects and then fired all the actors and rewrote the script. The idea of The Matrix is amazing. When I realized what the Matrix was, I was interested. Unfortunately, the script didn't allow me to care enough about the rest of the narrative. If the characters were less cartoon-like and I was made to feel any sympathy towards them, maybe the film would work. Go see The Matrix for the special effects but don't pay attention to the narrative, or you will be disappointed. (3 out of 10)
