Those who said the matrix is the best movie of all time need to re-examine their lives. Go back a few decades if you want some quality movies.

I'm tired of the old man's credo, "If it's new then it's crap." You should open your eyes. The matrix may not be for you, but it is definately a ground-breaking movie. I agree with MistaTastyCakes, there were some great movies in the day, but also some real crap..... just like today.

Groundbreaking in the way it ripped off so many other movies and pretended it was new? Oh wait you're right.

LOL! right.... ok, every movie is going to have something in it that resembles another movie. Show me another movie that used the same camera techniques or had the same story. (yes, there are some with some elements of the story as with any movie, but nothing that really is the same).

Anybody that said the Matrix is the best movie every probably think its the best movie ever. Last time I checked, people don't all like the same things. Times, movies, opinions change with time. Man...

I was agreeing with you up until this point. Movies are made for entertainment. This is especially true of action movies. If you consider the matrix art then you need to re-examine your life.
