Tally Dot Matrix T2250

Advantages: Every single second
Disadvantages: None

...The Matrix stars Keanu Reeves as Neo, a normal 9 to 5 worker who secretly does computer hacking on the side. One night, a mysterious woman named Trinity seeks him out and introduces him to Morpheus, considered a terrorist by the government. Morpheus shows Neo a world he couldn't possible imagine, and learns that he may the key to saving it. If you went back to 1999 and asked people the film they most want to see that year, hardly anyone would've said this film. This, of course, was the year of the first Star Wars prequel and the hype machine was in overdrive, and so The Matrix got relatively overlooked. But it's so much better than the phantom menace it's hard to see what everyone was so excited about back then. This film came out at the perfect time. The internet was booming, mobile phones were no longer only tools for the wealthy... Read review

Advantages: Carbon copies
Disadvantages: Only good for text printing

Advantages: Good entertainment
Disadvantages: tooo much hype

...? instalment in the ?Matrix? trio. It was in my second year as a 3D effects animation student that the original ?Matrix? came out and, unfortunately, I never made it to the cinema to see it. Not so with it?s highly anticipated sequel (sorry, I don?t subscribe to the trilogy ethic), I was determined to go and go I did, after trying but failing to sidestep all the hype, trailers, sneak previews etc, which in my opinion can be detrimental to the impact of a movie, and were in this case. Recommendation I?m not going to do the standard plot run down here; the film makes the assumption that you?ve seen the first film, so will I. God help any cinema goers who haven?t who walked into watch this on spec as it?ll have made very little sense at all. This is the continuation of the resistance to the robot/computer dominated world, moving forward along... Read review
