This has to be the most overrated movie in sci-fi history. It is way too long and the acting is stiff, especially Keanu "get me a new facial expression" Reeves. Who cares about the special effects when the story is incoherent and uninteresting? I certanly don't. It disturbs me that many people consider this not only a great movie, but a classic!!!! Did these people see the same movie I did. I saw a dumb action movie with delusions of grandeur. I say watch Star Wars again and see what real storytelling is all about.
