Rate the Movie Day 23: The Matrix
So Jaws couldn't break into the top 10 if it's life depended on it, in fact it's the second worst film thus far.
Today we go for a groundbreaking film in the world of special effects, try not to consider the sequals as it's well known that they suck, but the first will always hold a special place in my heart. Today we enter the wold of the Matrix Day 1: Goodfellas 97 Day 2: Fight Club 83 Day 3: Taxi Driver 86 Day 4: Shrek 82 Day 5: American History X 92 Day 6: The Usual Suspects 78 Day 7: The Ring (jap Version) 77 Day 8: Batman 87 Day 9: American Beauty 86 Day 10: Full Metal Jacket 87 Day 11: Saving Private Ryan 90 Day 12: Clockwork Orange 91 Day 13: Casino 84 Day 14: The Blues Brothers 92 Day 15: Ghostbusters 86 Day 16: Phone Booth 79 Day 17: Pulp Fiction Day 18: Rocky 81 Day 19: Training Day 73 Day 20: T2 Judgement Day 92 Day 21: Enter the Dragon 94 Day 22: Jaws 74 Top 10 1.

WTF with Jaws. I hate you all.
![]() 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. |

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. |

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. |

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.

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. |

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.

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...

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.... |
