    The matrix lobby shootout is one of the best ever. Heat's shootout being THE best.

    I loved the first one. The other two didn't cut it.

    the fight in the 3rd one is cool but it has too much futuristic science-fictionalised cheesiness in it that just isn't matrix. there's a funny as fuck part on it though, the part where he's stuck in that train station and runs out the tunnal, then returns to the same station in what seems to be like a recurring space in time - he just says "shit" after running it, i laughed so much at that. i was high like but still...

    the first matrix, aint no beating it. it was plausible with a basic conspiracy theory that gave another perception on life. you can't get that with the other two as they just become centralised on the matrix itself and take it waaaay too far.

    Wasnt it Smith? I havent seen the movie since theatres, I thought it sucked and I walked out.

    First was great, total mindfuck, and i love the cyberpunk genre, 2nd one was ok, but man, the third SUCKED.

    Reloaded sucked hard. Revolutions ruled.

    more than the action part i like the philosophical part,

    is everything predetermined or do we have a choice?

    It was A smith, but it wasn't Hugh Weaving acting the role - it was the guy that got cloned in Revolutions, then brought back from the matrix into the "real world".

    Huh??? I thought it WAS Hugh in all 3. That's a 1-of-a-kind voice!

    Hugh was in all 3, but in the 2nd one, Agent Smith duplicated himself in the one guy on Jada Pinkett Smith's ship right before he left the matrix, and he was possessed by Smith outside the matrix as well. It was kind of odd how similar their voices were. But if you're still not sure which guy it is, at the end of 2, there's Neo in a coma and another guy passed out on another gurney. Smith has possessed the other guy.

    And if you loved Hugo Weaving's voice, check out V For Vendetta. The screenplay was also adapted by the Wachowski brothers, but about a decade before they wrote The Matrix. It's adapted from a graphic novel, with a huge 1984/Big Brother vibe. Sorry to all the Brits out there, but there's nothing cooler than blowing up Big Ben and Parliament to the War of 1812 Overture.

    ...so good a set of films and universe, in fact, that there are a lot of people out there who believe the Matrix is real.
    They make some interesting cases...some take it quite literally, while others use it more as a metaphor for realizing things like 9-11 being an inside job, learning about 'Reptillians', or so on.

    Ah well...

    the first one is a cyberpunk classic. it's almost a study in the genre, featuring pretty much everything that makes cyberpunk cyberpunk (except body augmentation, though the characters appear as they imagine themselves in the matrix. how would you appear? i'd probably be in a suit that fluctuated through psychedelic fractal patterns).
    i appreciate what they were trying to do with the 2nd, and it almost worked. the action is tight, but the plot gets a little fucked-up. 6 previous matrixes? what happens to all the folks who are plugged in when they reset? "oh shit, i'm back in my life 6 years ago... AGAIN." also there were gratuitous fights, but not nearly as many as in part 3... jesus. it became a bit too 'style over substance' after part 1.

    a great movie... But i've liked the initial episode more, because the philosophical part was osrt of new for someone in my age at that time, and finding the hidden symbolisms, the riddles, and other wordplays were great. but in the second movie, the story became based on more monologues, spoken out by wise eople, which had decreased the flow of the story.
