“Huh?”
All right, Wachowski brothers, here’s your motivation: You took one of the most original movies and brutally murdered it with the sequel, it’s the final installment, fix it. Yeah, that happened. Honestly, I loved the original Matrix, and if you’ve read my review on Reloaded you know how I felt about that one. This movie, however, fell somewhere in the middle. Still, its shortcomings were more than obvious and I felt like the brothers still missed the mark. But it definitely was an improvement from …

Kinda wish I could go back in time and slap the Wachowskis before they started making this one
Wachowski brothers, what the hell happened? You went from one of the coolest and most original movies in many years to creating this drivel. What the hell? Anyway, let’s get this going right. I loved the original Matrix. And there were parts in this movie that weren’t terrible, I really felt like the Wachowski brothers kind of lost their way with this flick. I heard this movie …

Who actually needs a review to convince them to see “The Matrix?”
I freakin’ love this damn movie. It’s creative, original, and well created. The Wachowski brothers hit the mark in every possible way here, from the fantastic and beautifully crafted special effects to the incredibly original plot and story line. This Sci-fi/Action flick in my opinions redefines the lines of both genres. There’s really not enough I can say about the amazing originality of this movie, I just love the idea of waking up in …

Who knew cleaning could be so fun?!
Oh Leon, you middle man in the Luc Besson trio, how you entertain! You may not be as French as Nikita or as Bruce as Korben, but you make up for it in your milk bingeing, plant loving, badass-ness. Who else could make hundreds of SWAT guys crap themselves in fear (excluding Richard Simmons and Chuck Norris that is)? If you have no idea what I’m talking about, then you need to see this movie (or maybe I need to see …

Get your sci-fi fix
This movie was recommended to me, and when I finally got around to watching it, I was blown away. Truly impressive movie, especially for something so low budget and unheard of. I know what you’re thinking, I’ve never heard of it, it must suck. Truly wrong. This is an essential movie for any sci-fi fan. It’s kind of like The Matrix meets Minority Report meets 1984.
Plot Summary
A futuristic world where emotion is outlawed and destroyed when possible. Colors that bring emotion are illegal, and the emotion of …

Being the movie that started my addiction to Luc Besson, The Fifth Element is probably his best known work. But because something is well known does not mean it is well received. This movie is often criticized as being Besson’s weakest attempt at character and plot development, especially when compared to other films such as La Femme Nikita or Leon The Professional. Though their point may be valid, I don’t believe this movie was meant to be like his others–this has the same characters we have seen many times …
