Craziest part is the new generation is gonna know Keanu as John wick. Not neo.
Millennianls......
DootDoot
Craziest part is your generation knew him Keanu as Neo.
Not Ted.
@@lewisdavidson571 Bill and Ted's adventures was very minor. Keanu by the masses was more known for Speed with Sandra Bullock than Bill and Ted's. And to put that on the same cultural pedestal as the Matrix or John Wick... Is a bit silly tbh.
Espartano 301 millennials are ‘81-‘96 and so they probably grew up with The Matrix. What are you talking about?
Doesn't matter, both are badass
"He's beginning to believe" will never stop giving me chills.

Made me wanna take a dump
The one thing I love about this scene is how well it portrays the very human nature of Agent Smith despite him being a computer program. He makes alot of overtly aggressive moves that aren't necessary and relishes in inflicting pain. He also does gestures that shows he is amped to fight after throwing his gun away. The best part is when he holds Neo in front of the train and talks about his inevitable death despite having the opportunity to just snap his neck. He took such an unnecessary risk at the end of the fight just to ensure Neo got to suffer before his death. He truly was corrupted by humanity
He was an insane robot
It’s crazy the more human Smith became the weaker he got
@@TheSnoozeFoxand the less human Neo become the stronger he got
Someone could say, he was a corrupted virus...
Yeah and it's just hard to not write human emotion into anything, including AI dialogue.
Everyone always gives Keanu praise for his martial skills. But let's appreciate Hugos too
Masterpiece of a performance
Lord Elrond its appreciated.
Well Smith's moves are much less complex than Neo's as an agent he just tanks it thru Neo's barrage and uses brute force moves to hit Neo not anything overly clever
@jamesbutler8821 Even though Smith's moves are less agile or difficult to pull off, there is still an art to _reacting_ to Neo's moves in a way that sells the impact of the choreography. Which requires his part of the scene to be just as involved and precise.
Hugo was pushing 40 and just like Keanu, had just had surgery. Very impressive.
The moment when Neo looks at the stairs & decides not to run is legendary ...
Just like in John Wick when he's scrubbing the blood and vengeance takes over
Fight or flight
@@StanpapiTV mmh no not really, I mean the stakes were very different. For the whole movie we're led to believe some things:
1) You can't win against an Agent, no matter what
2) Only one man believes that Neo COULD potentially do it, but we're never shown HOW up until that climax
3) If you decide to fight (which is madness) you're automatically sacrificing yourself and you're aware of that
4) If you lose THAT fight, all is lost
So yeah Neo looking at the stairs (which symbolizes the Escape route) and turning his back to it is powerful AF because it takes guts and it takes faith (faith on who he's constantly told he is), in his specific case
@@StanpapiTV not at all
@@thefourbeastrevealed7565 this life or next life?
Smith is an incomparable antagonist. Hugo Weaving was transcendent in this role.
One of the most underrated actors for sure
His cromulence embiggened the roll in a way noone else could, irregardless of their status
Few people know but smith was "the one". Not neo
Sadly he won´t be in Matrix 4 :(
@@hansolo631 Sir, I am enthralled by your, expertly loquacious, employment of spurious vernacular.
Yuen Woo Ping is a genius. Props to both Hugo and Keanu for learning this choreography. Their dedication and execution is what makes this scene so timeless.
Hugo Weaving actually looks like he can throw hands at 1:23
What's more impressive is that they've done this after both of them had gone through medical surgery. Keanu had one for his spine and Hugo for his neck!
@@fenerliuzun4476 that’s very impressive from them both. Must have hurt to move alot
Seeing the behind the scenes and watching the interview between Keanu and Scott Adkins is great. There was a part right before the "slow-mo bullets" and the "dodge this" scene, where Keanu had to kick two SWAT officers in a " Z " motion. Keanu said Yuen Woo Ping kept shouting out "MORE POWER!!!" and they just kept having to do that take again and again for hours. Great dedication.
@@LeedleLee457dude I've been a fan of adkins for years and it's great to finally see him getting recognition dudes one of the best martial artists out there and he is the perfect choice for batman can pull off the physical side of without a stunt double like Pattinson who didn't even film in Edinburgh/Glasgow it was his double the whole time 😂😂
The fact both Hugo and Keanu did this mostly without stuntmen it's amazing. Pretty raw talent from both two top 10 Hollywood actors, in the dawn of their raising to superstars!
They knew what they were doing was ultra special and would change the world.
this is my favorite movie of all time.. but top 10 actors.... cmon man.
The fact that the special effects and CGI in this movie holds up after 21 years is just an atest to how well this movie was made.
Few CGI and more man's made effect that's why it still holds up.
Just look at Matrix 2, orgy of CGI and imo it didn't age well :/
Taradhish Thats true, in the early 2000’s they thought “ We can cgi everything.” They knew in 1999 to use it as a tool, not a crutch and it turned out amazing!
I can't believe it's 21 years 😱
This film was came to 2002
New camera techniques were actually invented for this film in order to create these scenes
The "Mr. Anderson" just gives me chills. Hugo Weaving played Smith to perfection
True.
Facts!!
He’s the only good actor in the first Matrix
@@smtandearthboundsuck8400 morpheus as well...
He defined Smith, there's no surpassing in this role
That throat poke at 2:38 has to be one of the most gangster moves I've seen in a movie fight scene ever.
💯😂 exactly
Just like a ball-flick. They never see it coming, and it brings them to their knees.
There's two parts about the beginning of this scene that always stood out to me (especially considering Smith is an Agent and thus a computer program.) First, he misses all his shots in such a small space, but then second, when Neo says "so are you", he actually glances at the gun to confirm that he's actually out of bullets...almost showing a human aspect to his character.
His desire to leave the matrix was the same. The way he spoke to Morpheus was hatred. None of the other agents ever behave that way.
The sunglasses also do well to help hide the eyes and some emotion. When Agent Smith takes off his glasses, far more emotion shows through. Even going so far as to try to use the train to kill Neo. More signs of the agent becoming... flawed.
Smith wasn't an agent.... he was something else far more deeper.
@Hiram Viera Well, he calls The Oracle mom so it seems like he was never the same as the rest of the agents.
Don't forget that he's a program inhabiting a human thus making him limited as well. While they were shooting Neo was matching his speed. The "so are you" glance was disbelief and perhaps fear which was something he never felt.
This is one of my favorite scenes. When Neo just says, "fuck it, I'm fighting him," it feels so much like someone giving up on running to face their fears. That's empowerment, really.
Facts.
e.g. Grizzly bear encounter.
Oddly enough, I commend Smith for accepting the challenge and not calling for help. Makes him a bit respectable and shows why he stood out from all the agents. He truly was an anomaly.
It's one of the most powerful 'in not scared of you anymore' scenes. And deeper still, it's when he decides he is more than the system. Wish society could learn more from these type of stories.
Thanks for your unconditional love and support, 🌹🌹🙏🤗🌻....Where are you commenting from??🎤🎤🎤
I love how the old fights have these "round one round two" vibes...
Old fights? Hey let me tell you something xD
All movie fights have that but mostly movie fights in the end of the fight
Old? 😒
1999 was kinda a long time ago. This movie can vote & drink
@@Mdautkreix and drive...and buy a gun in most of the nations of the world(if it does all the bureaucracy stuff)
Can we all just agree that "Mr. Anderson.." as Agent Smith is walking up is so damn Iconic and PERFECTLY Delivered..
0:17 I love how this very deliberately echoes the stereotypical Wild West scene, right down to the tumbleweed blowing across the shot between them. You can almost _hear_ "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" ocarina.
at this point it’s become a trope
good eye
yup
I think that was the point
Perfectly said.
I love how Smith speaks in a sort of calculated and stilted poetry.
“That is the sound of inevitability, that is the sound of your death”
I bet Thanos is a huge fan 😂😂😂

@@Kacey_Jaymes 🤣 I'm your huckleberry
The first matrix film is a masterpiece.
Yes, amazing storytelling, structure, and themes. A masterpiece.
The 2nd and 3rd are at best popcorn action movies with a few interesting (if a bit dull at times) monologues on human nature and purpose.
Yeah, it's a shame that sequels suck
I mean the sequels were above average movies, it's just that the first movie was so good it outclassed them
@@marcodestefano7119 above average?? lol no. the very first fight between neo and smith looks like a bad rendered ps2 cutscene. Its a pure shitfest through and through
@@ahabduennschitz7670 i wasn't talking about the cgi in detail, also it doesn't look bad for '03
Always liked how Smith called him "Mr. Anderson." Like A Bond villain greeting James Bond with all the condescension in the world in two words.
Man, the moment and music at 2:18 gives me chills everytime. Guy was just beaten, thrown away about 10 meters in the air, coughing blood on the floor. Instead of rethinking his first decision and running away this time, he gets up, shakes the dust off and faces the enemy in the eyes. Just thrilling.
Smith was one of the greatest villains ever.
Both him and Davy Jones off Pirates of the Caribbeans are two of my favorite film antagonists of all time.
was he really a villain though or a representation of an open minded program

LMAO
To say this movie was ahead of its time is a massive understatement.
Sci fi movies before the year 2000 were ahead of its time and there's a lot of good titles to choose from
It wasn't ahead of its time this idea has been around for centuries.
„What is he doing?“ „He‘s beginning to believe“ gives me chills. I love this Film
"You're empty." "So are you" Neo wasn't talking about the gun. Mr. Smith got his digital feelings hurt.
wow…
wow…
Never have I ever thought this way.
Nice
I don’t get it.
The CCC ,agent Smith took it as an insult to his Hollow digital life...which is virtual.
Agent Smith may have been a villain, but at least he always had manners by referring to Neo as Mr. Anderson.
He called him mr Anderson to try and keep neo tied down to his old life by using his old name. The whole point is that nothing there is real and can be bent and broken.
@@Wayne-hs6gm I think, its because he know him as ID in matrix. So in his program, when he go to his file, there will be always his Matrix ID name. You can then ask me, why is he still there if he isnt in matrix anymore. IDK.........maybe files are deleted in like 3years and everytime he join, its restore time again.
@@Wayne-hs6gm or maybe it's just the first name he knew so he's never calling him a different name, like Vegeta calling Goku Kakarot all the time. 😅
@@Wayne-hs6gm you don't know how accurate what you said was...
*Ephesians **4:22**-24*
22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;
23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;
24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
Professionals have standards.
One of my all time favorite fight scenes. The fact that the movie makes it Neo's choice to fight Smith makes it all the more emotionally thrilling.
1:02 - 1:06 really stood out in my mind when i first watched this movie, and still does. Look at that camera movement. The fluidity of movement and punches all melding together as the camera sublety pans around them.
Same here, For me anyway, it has to do with the fact that they aren't cutting up the fight like they do every other movie out there where its cut after cut after cut to mask the fact the actor can't actually fight for real. In this movie the actors choreographed their fights with one another and the end result is this. Where you see them ACTUALLY simulating the fight in one continuous shot. It was great and I wished more movies did this.
@@Extremefightersexactly. I watched a few clips of reacher and there's literally a jump-cut every time someone throws a punch. It's abysmal. I understand that a lot of TV shows & movies are made with this style for budget reasons, but I find the action scenes unwatchable. The Matrix is more like an old-school Hong Kong film -- it has several seconds of holding a camera shot with the odd single or double blow mixed in. It's a huge step-up in quality but requires a lot more training & choreography.
ขอโทษประเทศไทยนะ
The fact that this movie is 22 years old and it still hold up today.

0:13
Trinity: "What is he doing?"
Morpheus: "He's picturing Agent Smith as the guy who killed his dog"
You are a genius.
Underrated
LOL
Trinity : oh...
That was good
I love the fact that this is an unprecedented event for the humans in the matrix, fighting an agent on equal footing and winning, and yet at the end of it all, its just a small delay to Agent Smith hunting Neo anew the moment the train stops. It helps build on the impossibility of the task humanity has in conquering the matrix and makes smiths ambush later on feel just as tense as any other moment.
Back in my favourite age of cinema, where the art of filmmaking was finally mastered but CGI was too crude and too expensive to use for every scene, so instead we got proper sequences like this. Truly stunning choreography
I always liked how when Smith's glasses are broken and he takes them off. He starts to take the fight more personally. Like the veneer of the cold agent falls off.
Baxter Rhodes Banshee!
The irony is that he hates humanity yet is somehow the closest thing to human the matrix produced, from telling morpheus he hates the place to showing genuine fear at the end of matrix 3
@@ashm4938 I personally believe he had been around so long without deletion that Smith gained some of of the qualities of humans but it was suppressed when fully in "agent mode" aka with the sunglasses and earpiece. Headcannon for me is the earpiece is a direct connection to the mainframe, and the sunglasses represent the uniform anonymity that allows an agent to freely move around the matrix. Both of those things if true do express a form of control from the mainframe. Without them they are effectively a free agent, no longer gaining benefits but also not being directly suppressed. When Smith was destroyed he was a free agent... What ever anomalous code neo carried was able to affect Smith and change him into the virus he was later.
You guys do realize that agent smith was “the one” before neo right? That’s where the original legend came from. Neo is the second coming, the true one. This is why agent smith and neo are the ultimate rivalry.
Agent smith willingly accepted the system but retained a small margin of his humanity. In other words, he’s the evil one. That’s why no matters how many clones are made of agent smith, they are all re-enacted in his image. He is the original one, so the system uses him as it’s most powerful conduit. The system never possessed the ability to change people, only the one can do that. This is why agent smith is able to modify and change code. This is why agent smith can do the things he can do. The system never possessed that power until possessing smith. And although anybody can alter code, harness the ability of the ones to a small extent, only the true one can defeat the one who was his predecessor. Hence why neo has to be the one to defeat smith. Why only neo can defeat the agents/agent smith.
Hats off to Hugo Weaving for doing this entire scene in a suit. I mean I'm sure the suit was custom made for this but still him doing it in a jacket, tie, and button down shirt is impressive.
Seriously. The first time I put on a suit, I instantly asked how did people fight in this thing.
But then again Keanu fought in 3 whole John Wick movies in a suit :D
@@dunjam1194 true but those are custom suits designed for him to move in, there are customizations in the inseams for example.
Not to mention it must have hot asf in that Subway too!!! Unless they did it in a set.
That makes me wonder about higher-end security personnel-such as the presidential detail associated with the US Secret Service. The dress suits they wear just MIGHT be fitted to allow for quick movements.
Turning 35 this year, this is definitely a top three movie moment for me.
The look of shock/disbelief on smiths face when neo gets up at 2:22 is legendary, like hes realizing in this moment neo really is everything that was said about him, and hes not gonna go down easily

Still the greatest film I've ever wtached at the theatre.

@@aeonlincoln5474 because they didnt hire the legendary Yuen Woo Ping to do the choreography for the new movie.
What makes this scene even better is the fact that Hugo Weaving and Keanu Reeves did most of their own stunts.
Keanu did all his fights and combats. See behind the scenes and his interviews. Although the part where he crashed into the wall after Hugo throws him there is CG
That, and also the fact that they keep the fight on full display with little cuts, only transitional cuts after certain blows. oh and absolutely no god damn shaky cam.
And no friggin shaking camera in the fights. I so hate that in modern movies... Like.. they can film everything properly, but the fights are shaky? Jeez..
The fighting choreography in this movie is beyond incredible. That moment when Smith is head butting Neo, so Neo lifts his knee to put distance between himself and Smith in order to stop the head butts, is genius. That level of thought into a fight is hardly ever seen in Hollywood.
That's bcos they had a Hong Kong fight choreographer and action director come in for the first 3 movies. His name is Yuen Woo-Ping.
They really needed him for the 4th movie.

@@user-rd7hj2vl9i He definitely got stunned when he got slammed into the roof of that tunnel, though!
I remember the marketing for the movie when it came out was really mysterious. They used that Morpheus line “no one can tell you what the matrix is. You have to see it for yourself”.. really enticing and some friends and I went to see it not having any idea what was in store. Needless to say, it was an awe inspiring experience. I came out of the theatre with my mind blown. So good!!

I was working at a movie theater at the time. On one hand it hurt them, because people weren't interested in watching it from the trailers and promos. On the other hand, after people actually saw the movie, the popularity exploded! It was really amazing they were able to keep the movie under wraps that long, and definitely can't be done today.

Yeah it was so weird how little we seemed to know about it before it actually released! Definitely harder to do that these days!
I was 15 when I saw this at the cinema with my friend and after the film we were lost for words. A superb example of cinema and I'm so happy my son loves it too. Poor boy won't be old enough to watch matrix 4 when it comes out 😂

I love his extremely presice robotic movements here as he counters Neos attacks. Always reminding you Smith is a machine; calculated to win and defeat his enemies at all costs.
1:56
Funny thing is that the Kung Fu choreographer describes Hugo Weaving's strong qualities as being a precise robot. See behind the scenes.
Terminator vs Robocop vs Agent Smith: Agent Smith wins every scenario.
Also note how he's okay with being hit in the face a few times to lure Neo into a counterattack.
He is a not exactly a machine. He is a programm, a piece of code.
Hugo and Keanu are brilliant actors! Movie still holds up 24 years later
Without a doubt, this film was the one that closed the millennium
As an adult watching this, after all the other fighting movies I have seen, what really stands out is how well it is shot. It is clear what is going on, we can see everything, the camera is either fixed or doing steady tracking shots, and they are letting the actors do quite a few moves/hits before cutting. We know exactly what is happening every moment in the fight, and even now still learning more about both of the characters. Probably considered too "simple" these days but god is it amazing to watch.
The kung fu scene is pretty bad ass too! Stop trying to hit me and hit me lol
The choreography is fantastic too. Stays true to the rules they set up. Smith is strong and fast but is confined by rules, therefore his style is very simple. Neo can bend the rules since he isn’t as confined, so there are more acrobatic moves in his style.
Plus when they are hit it tells a narrative too. Neo’s best shot can only push Smith back a little. Every hit Smith lands drives Neo back. You can feel that threat, Neo can hit as hard or take as much damage.
@@awilmart I think Neo is also using martial arts movies that he learned from Morpheus.
Moat action scenes still can't hold a candle to this. Action movies now rely to heavily on up close ups and rapid cuts. Really takes you out of the action.
@@shaunince6336 They did that since the early 00's to be fair. This is a throwback to the classic kung fu/Hong Kong action film style of directing, where long stretches of choreography are captured by longer shots/fewer cuts.
Hugo was one of the stars of the trilogy. His portrayal of Agent Smith is unlike anything I've seen with an antagonist and there's this energy and charisma he emanates that makes this role truly his. I will never not get chills when he berates Neo through gritted teeth;
"Why, why WHY, Mr Anderson? WHY DO YOU PERSIST?!"
One of the best villains ever created and one that may have had a fair point!
Because I choose to...
hugo weaving practically deadass CREATED tha character of smith; go search & peep tha notes he made on his copy of a working draft of tha script; dude annotated tha fuck outta it like a english teacher grading a shitty essay lol & insisted upon numerous changes bein made 2 tha wachowskis original vision of tha character. for ex, originally he was presented as somethin of a stereotypical villain, laughing evilly & such, toying wit cypher, takin sadistic pleasure in his hateful monologue bout humanity 2 morpheus, but weaving categorically refused & argued dat smith is a literal machine & should display as lil emotion as possible thru tha entire movie
He had a bit of humor to him as well.
Agent Smith's point that humans are a planetary virus could bear out, but we gotta keep working together to make sure this villain wasn't correct.
Hail hydra
Quarter of a Century ago, as of next week, this film showed up in theaters.
"Game changing" does not describe the effect it had.
Masterful in every way.
Neo, the only man the remember all the cheat codes.
1:15 is when the other brother decides to turn up the difficulty
9021🎉😂

“I’m going to enjoy watching you die, Mr Anderson”
Even before Neo made Smith go defective and become what he was in the second and third movies, there was something different about him. Programs shouldn’t enjoy anything, or say anything that emotionally charged.
Yeah it's implied earlier in the movie as well when Smith takes off his ear piece to say how he really feels about the Matrix that he's at the very least thinking about going rogue
Cyber Justiciar when he spoke to Morpheus it was evident he was beginning to develop emotions even before Neo hacked him
Unless they were AI's
"What are you doing?" - Brown
"He doesn't know." - Jones
He was always different than the rest.
ive seen theories that he was a former "one" from an earlier matrix, and thats why hes different from the others.
2:18 when Keanu flexes even the dust runs away
Lmao
Bruh chills every god damn time. Especially with the music!
It's an interesting irony in this movie that an essential element of Neo's emergence as the One was that he not believe it at first. He went in to rescue Morpheus believing that he was an ordinary man, expendable for the cause. And through his battles with the soldiers, the Agents, Smith here, and finally death itself, he came to understand who he truly was.
But to emerge as the One, he had to initially believe that he was not.
2:19 I always thought this was a subtle callback to when Neo first fought Morpheus. The subtle calm inhale and exhale and the hand motion daring smith to make the next move. Similar to how Morpheus did the exact same hand motion to Neo when they fought and he lost the first time, and his breathing taking him back to remembering that there really is no air to breathe.
Yeah… subtle…
Like . . . duh
And Morpheus has an agent fight of his own in Reloaded in which everything mimics this one
This movie blew our minds seeing it in the theaters. There was nothing like it, ever.
It was the best film I ever watched at the theatres back in 99.. and it's still the best film I've ever seen at the theatres...pure entertainment.
Interstellar?
Dark Knight for me.
The Matrix is the best movie of all time. The choreography, the action, Kung fu, the suspense, the pick up lines, no bullshit just pure movie madness!!. The matrix trilogy will never age.
I remember Terminator when that came out, that was the movie that changed how we view CGI forever.
0:48 how I get out of bed when I’m late for work
Exactly
Thats the spirit😂
Hahahahaha
God damn, that's actually true.
Sure
" Mr. Anderson" 😐 One of the most greatest, iconic, and memorable greetings in cinema as of today it still gives me chills and goosebumps. It never gets old.😍😎💯👍😏😰😱
1:36 i always loved how smith let's neo kick his ass for a second😬
If Neo had a pencil, this would be over in 30 seconds.
Edit:
Top reply: In this version, he had a spoon.
In this version, he had a spoon.
John Wick reference
BENJAMINESTEBAN10 *_hehe yeah Boi_*
Music Boy I thought it was from Thomas the train
stevenstrumpf7 he is gay
I never put it together in previous viewings that Agent Smith had no intentions of dodging the train, instead holding Neo there until they both died, knowing that as an Agent, he can just come back. That adds a whole new level of menace and badassery.
Yea. Also, killing agent means killing the person he posseses. One think that always bothered me in Matrix (still exceptional movie) was not adressing the problem of countless deaths red pills cause, killing people on their way. While it is very hard to kill an agent, it could also add great barrier for many people, because they would not want to kill innocent person behind the agent, making possessed person a living sheald, so "just run" stategy could be also ethical, in addition to very wise.
That was Agent Smith trying to prove that, as a human, Neo’s death was inevitable. As part of the machine, Agent Smith could never die. That Neo could fight all he wanted, the outcome would never change.
@@mathuraphael9196 It's a war, unfortunately, even if one side doesn't even know the real reason they are fighting. To them the red pills are just terrorists blowing up buildings for fun.
That's what I thought when watching it, but then he does that little reach at the end and it undoes it.
He should have just looked at him angrily for the second before he got hit.
@@mathuraphael9196 well in this scene, neo was about to take the exit. So he wanted to flee.
The tension between Neo and Agent Smith is so thick and heavy you can hear a pin drop. 😰😱 Keanu Reeves and Hugo Weaving did a phenomenal and spectacular job in this scene as they both put tons of emotion and depth into it. 😍😎💯👍
Coolest film ever made, in a league of its own.
I think my favorite part about this movie and about this fight is that it proves Neo is "only human". Agent Smith may be stronger, throwing Neo is walls and pillars, but Neo adapts, which is arguably humanity's greatest strength, that adaptation that Smith could never do. At 1:38 Smith grabs both of Neo's arms and headbutts him, but Neo adapts and break out. At 2:29 Neo does the exact same maneuver to Smith and he fails to adapt. At 2:38, Neo throws a punch at Smith and he grabs the wrist, but Neo quickly adapts and extends his fingers to go for the Agent's throat. This entire fight is Smith overpowering Neo, but Neo having the advantage of the natural human ability to change tactics based on a scenario. Brilliant.
While in principle this is true to this scene it is not true for the entirety of the trilogy. Smith is seen adapting throughout the entire movie, although his approach is more calculated. The irony with smith is that although he is only a program he showcases almost all of the negative traits he hates about humanity. However he adapts in the most ruthless of ways. Because he is a program confined to the matrix his ability to adapt was limited but he is later freed and able to adapt in ways I’m sure you’ve seen. I think the two greatest differences is that smith doesn’t adapt internally he remains the same he believes he is already better and superior to Neo in every way making him only create copies of himself. Neo understands he has flaws that can be improved and as you stated adjust as the situation presents itself. Almost like Pride or Arrogance Vs Humility or Meekness
Even at 1:30 Neo uses the same move Morpheus used against Smith in their fight and Smith hasnt adapted.
Neo is actually a machine that can adapt ;)
@@olafjurek2137 def a interesting perspective with the matrix 4 approaching. We don’t really know the truth behind Neo
@@olafjurek2137 I will say that with Trinity also coming back I can’t fully get behind it unless she is also a program
Jesus christ 23 years ago and it still looks so crisp and slick, no shaky cam bullshit, real actors fighting, long takes. fucking awesome
0:43 Coincidentally running out of bullets at the same time is hilarious to me.
2:40 Still one of my favorites bits in cinema. Hugo nailed it.
when smiths glasses broken, his power rises up to 9000
Sharip F WHAT? 9000? There’s no way that can be right.
Second fase of the boss
Omg it's so true Leo flys against the walls!!!
He gets serious then before glasses get broken hes toying with you glasses gets broken he goes all out
@@bacilluscereus1299 Smiths reaction when neo blocks the bullets
The fact that Hugo Weaving was doing those moves in a suit is impressive.
wait he did his stunts?
@@zoxyy.1x A pretty sizeable chunk of them - Keanu and Hugo were also trained in Martial Arts alongside some other members of the cast. Reloaded and Revelation had more stunt smith usage thanks to their astronomically higher budget
All the action is done by the actors. The studio brought the legendary choreographer Yuen Woo-ping, and he suggested to work with every single character for 4 months for the fights in the Matrix to be as much realistic as possible!
No other film even comes close to this masterpiece, no matter how much they try to improve the special effects.
“My name….is NEO.”
Chills every time.
20 years later, after seeing so many movies, this is still one of the best
This movie is the very definition of the word “badass” :)
true
“Is” tha best🍂
Will always be
A Game changer in modern cinema
Jesus this fight alone is better than all the action scenes in 2021’s matrix
Not only that, this scene feels like there's an actual "threat", unlike Resurrections. Even the line "Mr. Anderson" sounds threatening here.
@@xAlundrax Hugo Weaving has a sinister look even if he doesn't do anything, the fake agent Smith in Matrix 4 looks like your typical asshole in the high school movies
@@viktordelacroix6208 Exactly! I came back to this video after watching 4 and realized just how much of a difference there is between both Smiths. Hugo got it right
Dude I know its crazy how far off and how trash matrix 4 is this scene alone and you could tell this was special that fact that matrix 4 has not one good scene is mind blowing
Agreed
I really like how the camera isnt playing any tricks on you.. you can see the full fight and all the actual movement with a few cool close up shoots. holds up incredibly.
24 anos atrás essa cena foi feita, e mesmo assim consegue ser melhor do que a maioria das cenas de luta feitas nos dias atuais.
Whoever made the decision to liberally coat Keanu in plaster-dust before that shot at 2:17 deserves a medal. About as close as you'll ever get to an anime power-up in real life. What an incredible shot
Super Saiyan Neo
It's fairly common in martial arts films but yeah looks excellent!
i always cover my whole body with lots of baby powder when i was a kid, i know how awesome it feels.
@@dustinakadustin I thought it would be, I knew it wasn't original to this film
I thought he farted... lol
This movie and Lord of the Rings were the best cinematic experiences I've ever had. Nothing has come close since.
And Weaving was in both!
The Batman movies I’d say as well
Blade.
Endgame, batman trilogy
@@allenmeza6786 endgame Looooool shitmovie, infinity war was much better
I love this scene, because you can see how Smith is getting more and more irritated that Neo stands and fights, instead of running away. You can tell that when Smith is using brute force more instead of martial arts.
This is an example of the perfect fight scene, in my book.
What a Year 1999 was - American beauty, Magnolia, The Green mile, The Sixth Sense, Fight Club and of course The Matrix.
Edit - I think we can add The Hurricane, The Straight Story, Being John Malkovich & The Insider to this elite List.
and let’s not forget Mystery Men
The Mummy as well! 1999 was a great year for films
But behind 1994, forrest gump, shawshank redemption, pulp fiction, dumb and dumber, the lion king, the mask, ace Ventura etc in short no one can beat 1994
And compare it to the crap that is released for the last couple of years. Pathetic!
Boondocks Saints and Deep Blue Sea.
I didn’t realize how badass kung fu in a suit and tie is.
Lol
Before He was an assasin he was an ass kicking worrior
I don't believe it's kung fu. I think it's just brute force, and super speed.
Its not kung fu.
Ask kiryu kazuma that from the yakuza series lol
My personal favorite fight scene ever. I get sucked right in every time I rewatch it.
The subtle smirk Neo gives to Smith after breaking his glasses is the cherry on top of Keanu's acting skills! Such a great actor!
