The Matrix is nothing but a cheap and effect overladen copy of Rainer Werner Fassbinder's excellent TV-movie "Welt am Draht", which was broadcast in 1973. Typical Hollywood overblown style, where they think FXs are everything. The Fassbinder movie hardly uses any effects at all, but is ten times as intelligent and a hundred times more enjoyable. Yach! Sorry, brothers Wachowski, have a look at the Fassbinder movie again and learn that less is more. Some people like this kind of action; for me it ruins a movie completely.
