It would hold up even better if the producers didn't force them to change the use of the humans. Basically changing it from humans being used as a computer, into humans being used as a battery.
This is one of those movies that's responsible for so much of what followed it that it now looks less impressive to new eyes than it should. See also: Citizen Kane.
I love the irony of comments such as "its like Inception" "its like Stranger Things" "its like Hunger Games", when in reality all of these movies and series will have 100% taken from The Matrix. A truly iconic movie.
I watched this in theaters several times. I got a couple friends into it during the initial run, then it went to dollar movies and I was able to get even more to go see it with me. I probably introduced it to a dozen people. It blew my mind back in the day.
I did'n saw the first time in a theater because all my friends that watched didn't understand it and tell me that it was so boring and bad. I watched on DVD and was instantly my favorite movie.

Trinity's, "Dodge this" line will always be the most badass line in cinema history. I absolutely love how quick the interaction is, between her saying and doing it. Soooo good.
Too bad they forgot a little detail - the agent was not facing Trinity when she put her gun to his temple. And suddenly boom he's flying backwards with a hole in his forehead. If they really were capable of moving that fast, there would be no hand-to-hand combat and no shooting of an agent. Ever.
@@gambar Easy explanation, the agent did indeed try to dodge it hence the bullet being a slightly different angle. Agents don’t really use super speed much & a basic explanation for this is they are programmes designed as humans with some hacks. The programme (agents) can counter bullets when properly prepared but they still have human limits.
Many of the concepts brought forward in this movie were not as commonplace as they are today. In 1999 most people barely had a working computer in their home, mobile phones were extremely simple, the internet was in it's infancy - it was quite the spectacle, ground breaking and set the standard in hollywood for years. The biggest thing for this movie was that no-one had any idea what it was about beforehand because it was never discussed. They just showed cool shots on the trailers. It was a real mind blower.
Fun fact about the helicoptor crash making the glass in the building ripple before it shattered: the movie did that as a stylistic choice but years after the Matrix came out and as super slow motion cameras developed, they found out that glass will actually ripple just like that before it shatters from an impact, the ripple just happens in a fraction of a second before the glass actually shatters.
It was years before somebody pointed out to me that Neo is an anagram for One, so his name is a reference to him being “The One”… I felt so silly not knowing that, so I thought I’d tell you, so you could… Dodged that bullet lol

"The Biblical references! I'm rollin' with them!" Ahhhh, Angelina.... The entire movie is a Biblical reference. This is a Messiah story. The guy who comes in from the outside to save the people from The System. The Woman in the Red Dress scene is the message meant for the Messiah: You're going in to save these people from The System, but they are so dependent on The System that they will kill you for trying.
The plot mechanics are Jesus - The One, the one who goes before to make the way for him, Judas, death and resurrection. But I respectfully disagree that it’s all Biblical. The deeper themes of the Matrix are Buddhist, an equally important layer that could go unnoticed depending on your cultural background. Buddha was not a supernatural atonement for our sins, he was a teacher who saw through the illusions of the mind and spent the rest of his life waking people up, freeing their minds from the invisible prison, and bringing relief from suffering. Relevant themes include not accepting your ego as your fundamental identity (Mr. Anderson), freeing your mind, training the mind with new abilities by noticing the illusoriness of things, this giving you a new experience of being alive (seeing the Matrix code) and so forth.
Actually, the creators of the Matrix both say that the movie is supposed to show what it's like to be Transexual people living in society. People that live in the world and yet don't fit in and don't feel comfortable. Until they start living their true Trans selves and no longer have to follow the system's rules. The Matrix is supposed to show what it's like to be Trans. They didn't write it to have anything to do with any biblical messages at all.
@@paulmayden7344 Even though there are all kinds of words and language used from the Abrahamic faiths (with some other cultures myths and stuff mixed in)? If they are now saying it after one/both transitioned, years after the initial trilogy was made, it sounds more like a bit of a retcon for extra clout, unless there are interviews and such during the early 2000s in which they at least alluded to this "It really is more of a coming of age thing for trans people" rather than "we mix all the more known faith story bits and faith-adjacent things together in a dystopian sci-fi setting with an extra helping of cool action scenes to score high marks among the at least decently religious young adult and middle aged demographic that is/was the USA populace".
@@paulmayden7344 Yeah and I'm sure the Wachowski duo have a bridge to sell you in Dubai. Get real, you watched the movie haven't you? That whole statement was a retcon to stay relevant with their Hollywood peer group and get someone to pull strings to put some money somewhere into the production of Matrix 4. The Social Darwinism culture in Hollywood ate the Wachowskis alive, you're parroting words spoken from the bleached bones picked clean by the vultures that own them.
I'm so glad you mentioned the Red Pill story at the beginning, otherwise I would've been triggered and possibly start shaking my fist the the monitor. Also, Vander showing up at the end and glare are you whilst thinking "I don't like the first John Wick movie due to the treatment of that puppy, you heartless wench." was very cute.
Ummm... the short Final Flight of the Osiris, literally sets up the 2nd movie, so maybe waiting until after the 3rd isn't the best idea 🤔 just a thought...
@@sirfriendzone1228 I just googled " in what order should i watch the animatrix and you are right. the shorts are more intertwined with the movies then i remember. However, most people would watch all back 2 back instead of slipping in 1 or some between the movies which is why i said at the end.
I highly HIGHLY recommend watching the rest of the trilogy. Matrix Revolutions (aka Matrix 3) is one of my favorite movies of all time. It’s so freaking good
I hope you're talking about The Matrix Revolutions, which is the third. As apposed to the matrix Resurrections, the fourth, which should never have existed.
Lots of people like to write off Trinity's kiss at the end as a "true love's kiss" trope, but I always like to look at it simply as a strong reminder to Neo in the Matrix that he isn't actually dead, he still exists in the outside world and that if he chooses to, he can just get back up. It's what finally breaks the last bit of doubt and reservation he had and awakens him to seeing the Matrix for what it really is, a computer program that can be manipulated.
A little note about the filming they filmed the matrix and matrix reloaded in Sydney. I still remember them shutting down part of the freeway for a certain chase scene and part of the city for that very helicopter scene
Awesome video Angelina! It's always refreshing to see someone watch a classic that was from back when I was a kid! It was awesome to see you enjoy it so much!
24:26 When Trinity says, "No, Neo, that's not true. It can't be true." And Neo asks, "Why?" Trinity doesn't answer him. This is possibly a clue that the Oracle had told Trinity in the past that whoever she falls in love with will be "The One." But she doesn't tell Neo this because, perhaps, she feels its awkward and strange to just tell Neo that she's in love with him, and that the Oracle had prophesied that whoever she falls in love with will be "The One." Trinity not answering Neo clues in the audience without telling them directly, that Neo is "The One." Great storytelling always utilizes subtext, and this movie does a great job at that!
My laptop crashed 5 times in a row while trying to watch this video, in a different way each time. One page fault in a non-paged area BSOD, one driver crash and forced shutdown to restart, one manual restart to try to get my network to connect again, one graphics freeze and subsequent crash, and one power source change fault. Everything appears to be working for now, so maybe I can finally get past the first 5 seconds :) By the way, if you don't address it in your reaction, I would definitely watch your reaction to the sequels, especially the second and third ones. I like those two even more than the first one, and the first one is already amazing. The fourth one is also good, but not as good as the rest, and I haven't rewatched it since my first watch so I don't remember as much of it.
Yes I here for a new video also new to your channel and you have pretty much been what I’ve been watching for like a week ford you through Movies in depth/Billy binges
This movie had such a cultral impact when it first came out and it still does to this day. The fashion, the effects, the ideas it explores, the iconic scenes. Didn't really need the sequels but thats about the only complaint I really have.
This was a blast to see in the theatres in 99. I was 11. This is my favourite film of the series, followed by the most recent one. In some ways the finale is the most beautiful, but I saw the first 3 in theatre and liked them all. #4 really tied them all together though and explained the meaning beyond the meaning.
Loved your reaction as always. You should watch society of the snow. It's a great movie and I would love to hear what you have to say about that one. If you do watch it I recommend the original language with subtitles, the acting was amazing
This movie released into theaters in 1999 just a month or two before Star Wars Episode 1, and i remember walking out of my first viewing opening weekend wondering (as a huge SW geek) how the hell Episode 1 was gonna hold a candle to this mind blowing experience. Answer: it didnt...not even close. It even tried to do the whole "chosen one, prophesied hero" bit...but embarrassingly weaker than what The Matrix had done. Its something that has forever been etched into my memory of that period in my young life
@@TheFoggyjones SPOILER! SPOILER! SPOILER! . . . . . . . . . . . . No, Neo doesn't have his powers in the real, he can't fly or punch trough walls, he just software-upgraded to enable wi-fi connection to The Matrix and other grids. That's how he went to the Matrix without being jacked in when he collapsed, and that's how he can overload and hack machines. His brain can navigate computer systems in the real, but can't bend reality.
If you want to see "Baby-Keanu" you have to watch the Bill&Ted movies. They are all great (yes, even part 3 is cool, shut up, you in the back there...)
Loved you watching the Matrix! ♥️ Glad to know your channel :D Matrix is one of my favorite movies/franchises of all my life. Matrix Reloaded is my favorite, the Wachowski sisters made continuations where they expanded the movie in all the ways - explored more that world, that story, the philosophy in it, the action scenes, the characters, all of it. I really suggest watching the sequels you can get a lot of cool moments from it. (And Animatrix too, a collection of animations in Matrix universe, one of THE BEST things from the franchise c: )
Ah, The Matrix. A clut classic that initiated a paradigm shift into the action film genre. An awesome movie to this day! And if you want to put yourself into a video game, maybe Tron is the movie for you. Or Ready Player One if you want to watch something more modern. :)
Everything was well explained in the movie, it's just a matter of paying more attention to the movie and less to the camera next to the movie. Some people miss some stuff when watching for the first time, but everything makes sense when watching a second time because the "cryptic" sentences are about later events that you already watched and know about, like the Oracle saying that Neo is not The One but "maybe in the next life", and how Morpheus knew how to help Neo escape the Agents at his office because he was watching the Matrix code from the outside.
I love all the details in this movie.. Neo being an anagram for One. The Oracle saying that he's waiting for something, and that perhaps he would become the one in a following life.. only for him to get shot, die, and come back.. a following life.. and perhaps the very best joke in this is that the Oracle gives him a cookie.. in a computer simulation.. Stuff like that makes me chuckle
The 2nd and 3rd films are actually pretty good and enjoyable. The 4th film was just… weird imo, but I heard a lot more people saying they didn’t really like the 4th one either. And storywise, you can be fine not watching the 4th one. The 3rd film didn’t really leave it that opened for it.
Yeah, Angelina. This is the film that revolutionized the industry forever that defines the use of CGI and VFX. It also brings out the dilemma of how we’re getting used to technology in such a way that now, we can’t imagine living our lives without it except for those who lived before us. The scene where Cyber actually admitting to the team that he wants to return being trapped in that prison because to him, at least he won’t be in a world where it’s a literal hell reminds me of a TV show called Continuum where future terrorists traveled to the past to enact their movement to secure their legacy. In one episode, there was this girl who recently joined the revolution that was telling one of the members how we need to open our eyes to the truth and he said the one thing that I still remember to this day and I quote, “But some prefer to sleep.” This statement shows how easy it is for us to believe in a lie because we get swayed to the pleasures and materials of this world that when we’re told otherwise, we reject it because it’s hard, if not, impossible to accept it. With that being said, we must be very careful of what we see and hear since not every thing is as it seems.
@@xX_H347H3R_Xx No. They are not live action. They are their own things. Movies are movies. Cartoons and csrtoons. And games are games. They do not blend together. Lol Otherwise i can make my own cartoon or game right now in the matrix world and dub it as canon. And we both know that would not be accurate. This is probably the lowest IQ comment i have ever seen.
"Where we go from here is a choice I leave to you." The perfect last line of a movie that completely eliminates the need for a sequel, right? ...Right?
Man I feel so old. Because you're reactions were the very same as my reactions only they took place over twenty years ago, when I first watched this movie at release.
One of the most perfect movies ever made, so good, so well executed, still holds up even 25 years later. I would highly recommend checking out the Animatrix if you decide to go forward with the sequels. It’s a series of nine shorts made by different Japanese animation houses, it’s a stunning collection of different perspectives on the world of The Matrix and one of them ties directly into the events of Reloaded. The sequels were kind of hated at the time, mainly because internet speculation and hype was impossible to live up to, but I always enjoyed them for what they are and think they are worth seeing. Check them out and see for yourself.
The Oracle told Neo that he COULD be the One, but it was like he was waiting for something, and that either he or Morpheus would die. His Death/Trinity's confession is what he was waiting for, so he could be reborn as the One. You were right about the biblical imagery, and Neo's death and resurrection as the One is part of that.
Probably been said but my favourite matrix Easter egg is in the "woman in the red dress" program, all of the background characters are twins. It gives the impression of the programmer reusing assets
Well, yes, “just because he’s The One,” but that entails much more than it can come anywhere near properly summarizing. Enjoy the very scenic ride getting there! 😄
If you haven't seen it already, you might appreciate "Decoding the music of The Matrix" by a guy called sideways. There is a reason the music sounds unique :3
The explanation is that Trinity was told she would love The One, and she knows she's in love. No one can tell her she's in love. She just knows it, through and through. She knows it so much, that even the supposed death of the man she loves is not enough to dissuade her from believing he's The One, and therefore not dead. The explanation is that love conquers all, even death. It's ROMANTIC!
I thought it was pretty funny when the creators went up to the stage for winning an award for this movie and said “Im glad everyone understood this movie” 😂
I swear I ran cross country for two years and I started running sleeveless because in a meet in regionals, a guy had a long sleeve on and when he took it off it legit looked like he got hit with red spray paint.
We lost our minds when this movie came out in 1999. The soundtrack, the style, the dialogue, everything was so cool. This movie made people question everything along with our own existence. Is this real or is this just a dream?

This movie is so advanced for it's time, and still holds up, with so many iconic scenes. And Neo is easily one of Keanu Reeves' greatest roles.

training the mind with new abilities by noticing the illusoriness of things, this giving you a new experience of being alive (seeing the Matrix code) and so forth.
@@acslater017 And they don't have guns in the bible
Actually, the creators of the Matrix both say that the movie is supposed to show what it's like to be Transexual people living in society. People that live in the world and yet don't fit in and don't feel comfortable. Until they start living their true Trans selves and no longer have to follow the system's rules. The Matrix is supposed to show what it's like to be Trans. They didn't write it to have anything to do with any biblical messages at all.
@@paulmayden7344 Even though there are all kinds of words and language used from the Abrahamic faiths (with some other cultures myths and stuff mixed in)?
If they are now saying it after one/both transitioned, years after the initial trilogy was made, it sounds more like a bit of a retcon for extra clout, unless there are interviews and such during the early 2000s in which they at least alluded to this "It really is more of a coming of age thing for trans people" rather than "we mix all the more known faith story bits and faith-adjacent things together in a dystopian sci-fi setting with an extra helping of cool action scenes to score high marks among the at least decently religious young adult and middle aged demographic that is/was the USA populace".
@@paulmayden7344 Yeah and I'm sure the Wachowski duo have a bridge to sell you in Dubai. Get real, you watched the movie haven't you? That whole statement was a retcon to stay relevant with their Hollywood peer group and get someone to pull strings to put some money somewhere into the production of Matrix 4. The Social Darwinism culture in Hollywood ate the Wachowskis alive, you're parroting words spoken from the bleached bones picked clean by the vultures that own them.
I don't know why people think tan lines are bad I think they look great
People are individuals bro beans. Don't lump folks unlike you into groups, that's how otherism starts.
I'm so glad you mentioned the Red Pill story at the beginning, otherwise I would've been triggered and possibly start shaking my fist the the monitor. Also, Vander showing up at the end and glare are you whilst thinking "I don't like the first John Wick movie due to the treatment of that puppy, you heartless wench." was very cute.
9:56 the COOLEST movie sound effect EVER!!! More than the lightsaber, Tie fighters and blaster, more than EVERYTHING! I love that sound!
If you do dive into the Matrix, please do not exclude the Animatrix!!! (probably best watched after the 3rd movie)
I agree! The Animatrix is excellent!
Ummm... the short Final Flight of the Osiris, literally sets up the 2nd movie, so maybe waiting until after the 3rd isn't the best idea 🤔 just a thought...
@@sirfriendzone1228 I just googled " in what order should i watch the animatrix and you are right. the shorts are more intertwined with the movies then i remember. However, most people would watch all back 2 back instead of slipping in 1 or some between the movies which is why i said at the end.
I highly HIGHLY recommend watching the rest of the trilogy. Matrix Revolutions (aka Matrix 3) is one of my favorite movies of all time. It’s so freaking good
Don't neglect the Animatrix! It's canon and very good.
@@xX_H347H3R_XxAnimatrix is one of the best release of this franchise no doubt
@oopartsw911 Resurrections would be Matrix 4 actually, that's the one you're talking about?
I hope you're talking about The Matrix Revolutions, which is the third. As apposed to the matrix Resurrections, the fourth, which should never have existed.
@@xX_H347H3R_Xx omg I just realized that! Lol sorry yeah I meant Revolutions. I despise that 4th movie
Lots of people like to write off Trinity's kiss at the end as a "true love's kiss" trope, but I always like to look at it simply as a strong reminder to Neo in the Matrix that he isn't actually dead, he still exists in the outside world and that if he chooses to, he can just get back up. It's what finally breaks the last bit of doubt and reservation he had and awakens him to seeing the Matrix for what it really is, a computer program that can be manipulated.
Nice! Don’t miss out on The Animatrix (2003)! So good!
I love how Morpheus says "This line is tapped, so I must be brief. YOU ARE THE ONE, NEO!"
The agents listening were probably "Well...that was easy..."
A little note about the filming they filmed the matrix and matrix reloaded in Sydney. I still remember them shutting down part of the freeway for a certain chase scene and part of the city for that very helicopter scene
Been rewatching bits and pieces of this movie of late. Stoked you reacted to it! Practically a first viewing. Biblical references are legit.
Awesome video Angelina! It's always refreshing to see someone watch a classic that was from back when I was a kid! It was awesome to see you enjoy it so much!
Had the good fortune of catching this on tv as a kid. It looked like magic back then and it still does now, glad stuff like this still holds up today
24:26 When Trinity says, "No, Neo, that's not true. It can't be true." And Neo asks, "Why?" Trinity doesn't answer him. This is possibly a clue that the Oracle had told Trinity in the past that whoever she falls in love with will be "The One." But she doesn't tell Neo this because, perhaps, she feels its awkward and strange to just tell Neo that she's in love with him, and that the Oracle had prophesied that whoever she falls in love with will be "The One." Trinity not answering Neo clues in the audience without telling them directly, that Neo is "The One." Great storytelling always utilizes subtext, and this movie does a great job at that!
Lets see how deep this rabbit hole goes!
Oh My Gosh! I can’t wait for this reaction!
Not only is Hugo Weaving in the MCU, but his first appearance in Captain America is shot-for-shot taken from the Matrix
My laptop crashed 5 times in a row while trying to watch this video, in a different way each time. One page fault in a non-paged area BSOD, one driver crash and forced shutdown to restart, one manual restart to try to get my network to connect again, one graphics freeze and subsequent crash, and one power source change fault. Everything appears to be working for now, so maybe I can finally get past the first 5 seconds :)
By the way, if you don't address it in your reaction, I would definitely watch your reaction to the sequels, especially the second and third ones. I like those two even more than the first one, and the first one is already amazing. The fourth one is also good, but not as good as the rest, and I haven't rewatched it since my first watch so I don't remember as much of it.
What an amazing movie! Timeless.
21:00 To go from seeing Keanu in this be terrible with a gun to John Wick is pretty hilarious.
Yes I here for a new video also new to your channel and you have pretty much been what I’ve been watching for like a week ford you through Movies in depth/Billy binges
Oops I’m not I I’m tired
Angelina Awesome Video Today!!🔥🐐🐐💎
This is a video I didn't know I needed today. As a fan of "The Matrix" I'm excited to see how much this blows your mind if it does
Awesome reaction of my favorite The Matrix movie!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊
I love your reaction videos 🥰
This movie had such a cultral impact when it first came out and it still does to this day. The fashion, the effects, the ideas it explores, the iconic scenes. Didn't really need the sequels but thats about the only complaint I really have.
This was a blast to see in the theatres in 99. I was 11. This is my favourite film of the series, followed by the most recent one. In some ways the finale is the most beautiful, but I saw the first 3 in theatre and liked them all. #4 really tied them all together though and explained the meaning beyond the meaning.
🎉
Loved your reaction as always. You should watch society of the snow. It's a great movie and I would love to hear what you have to say about that one. If you do watch it I recommend the original language with subtitles, the acting was amazing
Classic!
Now the reaction to the other three films
"Baby Keanu!" ... -_- I think it's time to watch Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure
This movie released into theaters in 1999 just a month or two before Star Wars Episode 1, and i remember walking out of my first viewing opening weekend wondering (as a huge SW geek) how the hell Episode 1 was gonna hold a candle to this mind blowing experience.
Answer: it didnt...not even close. It even tried to do the whole "chosen one, prophesied hero" bit...but embarrassingly weaker than what The Matrix had done. Its something that has forever been etched into my memory of that period in my young life
So ahead of its time brilliant film
Yes! Another one of my favorite movies.
I loved this movie franchise (except for the new Matrix movie), especially "the Animatrix"
Your opinion is correct
@@adameager7114 thank you
This is rightthink.

No, Neo doesn't have his powers in the real, he can't fly or punch trough walls, he just software-upgraded to enable wi-fi connection to The Matrix and other grids. That's how he went to the Matrix without being jacked in when he collapsed, and that's how he can overload and hack machines. His brain can navigate computer systems in the real, but can't bend reality.
If you want to see "Baby-Keanu" you have to watch the Bill&Ted movies. They are all great (yes, even part 3 is cool, shut up, you in the back there...)
When this came out back in 1999, people were absolutely mental about it. Movie was many years ahead of its time.
_Imagine... inserting yourself into a video game!"_ Um, ever heard of a little 1982 film called "Tron"?! lol
Office Space and Fight Club next!
Loved you watching the Matrix! ♥️ Glad to know your channel :D Matrix is one of my favorite movies/franchises of all my life.
Matrix Reloaded is my favorite, the Wachowski sisters made continuations where they expanded the movie in all the ways - explored more that world, that story, the philosophy in it, the action scenes, the characters, all of it. I really suggest watching the sequels you can get a lot of cool moments from it. (And Animatrix too, a collection of animations in Matrix universe, one of THE BEST things from the franchise c: )
Legend has it that Keanu had to film the Red Pill scene dozens of times, and has never had a cold since.
Ah, The Matrix. A clut classic that initiated a paradigm shift into the action film genre. An awesome movie to this day!
And if you want to put yourself into a video game, maybe Tron is the movie for you. Or Ready Player One if you want to watch something more modern. :)
It was mainstream hit, not a cult film.
I don't think you can call one of the most beloved, influential, and well-known movies of all time a "cult classic" lol
Everything was well explained in the movie, it's just a matter of paying more attention to the movie and less to the camera next to the movie. Some people miss some stuff when watching for the first time, but everything makes sense when watching a second time because the "cryptic" sentences are about later events that you already watched and know about, like the Oracle saying that Neo is not The One but "maybe in the next life", and how Morpheus knew how to help Neo escape the Agents at his office because he was watching the Matrix code from the outside.
11:36 angelina thinking it was 1000 years is so good haha
You're so fun! I don't know if you're into anime at all but I'd like to see you react to The Apothecary Diaries.
I love all the details in this movie.. Neo being an anagram for One. The Oracle saying that he's waiting for something, and that perhaps he would become the one in a following life.. only for him to get shot, die, and come back.. a following life.. and perhaps the very best joke in this is that the Oracle gives him a cookie.. in a computer simulation.. Stuff like that makes me chuckle
11:45 is a certified Fry from Futurama moment.
Ange's computer: Throw me out and run away. Checkmate.
Love this film
"Up-Close Uncomfortable Things They Do" was the name of my band in college!
The 2nd and 3rd films are actually pretty good and enjoyable. The 4th film was just… weird imo, but I heard a lot more people saying they didn’t really like the 4th one either. And storywise, you can be fine not watching the 4th one. The 3rd film didn’t really leave it that opened for it.
1,2,3 and the Animatrix are the only media I would encourage people to do.
4 Is just.... not good.
Yeah, Angelina. This is the film that revolutionized the industry forever that defines the use of CGI and VFX. It also brings out the dilemma of how we’re getting used to technology in such a way that now, we can’t imagine living our lives without it except for those who lived before us. The scene where Cyber actually admitting to the team that he wants to return being trapped in that prison because to him, at least he won’t be in a world where it’s a literal hell reminds me of a TV show called Continuum where future terrorists traveled to the past to enact their movement to secure their legacy. In one episode, there was this girl who recently joined the revolution that was telling one of the members how we need to open our eyes to the truth and he said the one thing that I still remember to this day and I quote, “But some prefer to sleep.” This statement shows how easy it is for us to believe in a lie because we get swayed to the pleasures and materials of this world that when we’re told otherwise, we reject it because it’s hard, if not, impossible to accept it. With that being said, we must be very careful of what we see and hear since not every thing is as it seems.
Obviously, Neo is a Disney princess - only true love’s first kiss could wake him up again 😂
The “why” isn’t revealed until the last movie. It’s contentious, but it’s not unprecedented in other franchise lore…
The only matrix lore is the matrix movies. There is nothing else that is cannon for the movies except the movies. 🤡
@@WheresWaldo05 The Animatrix and "Enter The Matrix" games are canon.
@@xX_H347H3R_Xx No. They are not live action. They are their own things. Movies are movies. Cartoons and csrtoons. And games are games. They do not blend together. Lol
Otherwise i can make my own cartoon or game right now in the matrix world and dub it as canon. And we both know that would not be accurate. This is probably the lowest IQ comment i have ever seen.
@@WheresWaldo05 I mean the concept has been used in different franchise lore. Non-matrix. I don’t want to say which as it will spoil
"Where we go from here is a choice I leave to you."
The perfect last line of a movie that completely eliminates the need for a sequel, right?
...Right?
Man I feel so old. Because you're reactions were the very same as my reactions only they took place over twenty years ago, when I first watched this movie at release.
The whole Fight scene on 25:27 is Truly Iconic and Incredible, I wanna rewatch it Every Single Time😃
One of the most perfect movies ever made, so good, so well executed, still holds up even 25 years later. I would highly recommend checking out the Animatrix if you decide to go forward with the sequels. It’s a series of nine shorts made by different Japanese animation houses, it’s a stunning collection of different perspectives on the world of The Matrix and one of them ties directly into the events of Reloaded. The sequels were kind of hated at the time, mainly because internet speculation and hype was impossible to live up to, but I always enjoyed them for what they are and think they are worth seeing. Check them out and see for yourself.
The aliens are so smart they made a movie to make us believe that the matrix is just a movie
I wouldn't mind if you did the other three. They are fun to watch first time.
Best way to remember which pill is taken is Cyphers iconic delivery of the line: "Why oh why didn't I take the BLUE pill?"
The Oracle told Neo that he COULD be the One, but it was like he was waiting for something, and that either he or Morpheus would die. His Death/Trinity's confession is what he was waiting for, so he could be reborn as the One. You were right about the biblical imagery, and Neo's death and resurrection as the One is part of that.
Probably been said but my favourite matrix Easter egg is in the "woman in the red dress" program, all of the background characters are twins. It gives the impression of the programmer reusing assets
Yes Finally My Favorite movie ❤❤❤
I love your reactions, appreciate you reacting to one of my favourite films of all time. Best reaction channel 🥹🙂↕️
God tier reactions ❤
Well, yes, “just because he’s The One,” but that entails much more than it can come anywhere near properly summarizing. Enjoy the very scenic ride getting there! 😄
The Matrix is the best action film and the sound track sure is exhilarating to the fight scenes so much.
If you haven't seen it already, you might appreciate "Decoding the music of The Matrix" by a guy called sideways.
There is a reason the music sounds unique :3
The explanation is that Trinity was told she would love The One, and she knows she's in love. No one can tell her she's in love. She just knows it, through and through. She knows it so much, that even the supposed death of the man she loves is not enough to dissuade her from believing he's The One, and therefore not dead.
The explanation is that love conquers all, even death. It's ROMANTIC!
I hope you do the Matrix Reloaded, and Revolution
I thought it was pretty funny when the creators went up to the stage for winning an award for this movie and said “Im glad everyone understood this movie” 😂
i vote for Keanu's next film watch to be 1991's Point Break with Patrick Swayze, Lori Petty, and the goat, Gary Busey
I swear I ran cross country for two years and I started running sleeveless because in a meet in regionals, a guy had a long sleeve on and when he took it off it legit looked like he got hit with red spray paint.
We lost our minds when this movie came out in 1999. The soundtrack, the style, the dialogue, everything was so cool. This movie made people question everything along with our own existence. Is this real or is this just a dream?
you've got to watch the other ones! most channels only watch the first

Thanks for your reaction. Entertaining as always. Thanks for the laughs. Keep on keeping on and Gritos from Tejas.
“…remember?”
2:30 When I saw this premiere in the theater I cussed at the exact second she did in this scene. It'll stick with me forever as one of my best memories.
2nd movie to use bullet time fight clip came out just a few months earlier they only used it in 1 seen
6:12 Great work!
New subscriber here, great reaction of one of my favorite movies, I've watched it hundreds of times. I suggest, after watching the trilogy of course, watch the Animatrix, a compilation of shortfilms that expand the universe of the Matrix. 6:24 smooth advertising here 😅
you're training for a marathon? you are even more perfect than i thought!
seen this in theater. no facebook social media whatsoever. got to talk about the movie with your friends in school.
