The Matrix

The Matrix is action-packed sci-fi at its best. The story is quite difficult to get hold of because The Matrix takes place in different worlds, the real world and cyber world.
   Thomas Anderson, a programmer in a huge corporation, lives a double life as the hacker Neo. When he is kidnapped by a gang of rebels led by the mysterious Morpheus, the awful truth is revealed to him: the world that he lives in is not the real world; it is a virtual reality called the Matrix. This is what Morpheus and now Neo rebel against.
   The Matrix is both visually stunning and entertaining from beginning to end, but I did miss one aspect though. In a film whose good guys and bad guys are so distinguishable, is it not a bit odd that one's sense of identification with the good guys is not very strong? They seemed to lack a human touch.
