I have to say that this was pretty good for an action movie. It had a rather original approach (although it's nothing new - the ideas HAVE already been there, although many people don't know or believe)and GREAT special effects. But it also has the same flaws as most action movies: flat characters (Neo is the only person we get to know at least a bit), a terribly boring last twenty or thirty minutes, which have no story and are just there to display more off the special effects (and even the bullettime gets boring after you've seen it once), and an absolutely stupid ending with Neo coming back to life after receiving a kiss by Trinity (OH PLEASE!!!). Anyway, I think this is nearly as good as an action movie can get, so see it if you have the chance.
