very very very very very very very Over rated.

But still some nice effects

WTF with Jaws. I hate you all. :rant:


Um...7.4 Overrated/overshown and whatnot, but still a pretty good movie (sequels aside).

Although we have this to thank for every comedy that has some sort of bullet-time spoof in it. Ugh.

8.5

8.5, It was awesome the first time i saw it, but now it's an 8.5

WTF @ Enter the Dragon being that high.

9 if you ignore the sequels.

9.5

10 big time.

3.0

Retarted movie with bad acting (Reeves) tons of plot holes, and an annoying fan base that claims it's the best thing since sliced bread. If the movie wasn't so fricking overhyped maybe I'd like it more.. Reeves needs to make the third Bill and Ted and then retire.

I'll give at an 8.
Just because it's a film that I can watch over and over again but it has got alot of plot holes which could have been covered in the next two installments but weren't as the next two were two piles of turd.

8.5, pretty fun to watch.

You don't compare Enter the Dragon to Pulp Fiction or Goodfellas directly. You look at each one for what it is, for a kung fu movie Enter the Dragon got a rating which it deserved. Just like how Blues Brothers and Ghostbusters are rated high, too.

6.0

9 - The first film was a great, well rounded film. It had a sense of mystery, I think it made you feel for the characters. The sequels just didn't have the magic that the first film had. In the sequels, you knew what was going on.

Please elaberate on this or I will not count your vote given your low post count

I didn't like the movie.

I'll give the Matrix a 9.5.

There was just something special about being there, watching the inevitable struggle between Neo and Agent Smith going on. I may be one in a handful of people who actually LIKED the sequels (Reloaded was the worst one, but still good...Revolutions was jesus, except for the ending.), but they don't beat the first Matrix. It had a good plot, and if you wanted to read that deep into it, you could see symbolism in it. I think it deserves a 10, with the sequels ranking 6.5 and 9 respectively, but nothing is perfect.

8 that's ignoring the sequels :o

Why?

Bad acting, too much subtext. Plus I didn't like all of the slow-motion special effects, I think it would've been better without them. Changing my rating now, I gave it too low a score now that I think about it.

OK that's fine, just a 1 seemed very low. :y:

No?

Since there is only one scale for every movie, they should be rated overall. But then again, I don't really care for kung fu shit.

I love this movie. The sequels of course are awful, but the first one is awesome.

5... I love Reeves but the Matrix is one of the most overrated films of all time. It's decent and a cool idea, but one of the best ever? I don't think so...

10 blew my mind the first time I saw it.And was innovative with that bullet time feature

Flair makes Lawler tap

6.9

Amusing for what it is, but severely over rated.

lol what. Wrong thread and forum there buddy.

:rofl: I was sure I deleted that

8.1

Was better then the other two Movies by far, but was also over-rated...I mean, don't get me wrong, I like the movie, and have it in my DVD collection (along with the other two crappy sequals), but it's just not along my favorites, and think it is over praised for being a breakthru movie....
