Cliche, cliche, cliche. Yes, loved it, wonderful effects, clever - though not fantastic - story, you have heard it all. But this is what DVD is all about - in my case just the PC version where to get widescreen I am looking at a box 6" tall. But, I have watched it many times, and will do again. This film has set a standard - witness Mission Impossible 2 - where Jimmy Woo borrows back some of his effects. It is a watershed in movie - and DVD history - and you need to get it for your collection just for that

Review of The Matrix (DVD)
Advantages: Good film, plenty of action, some amazing special effects. Disadvantages: No quality extras, some poor special effects, feels like a money grabbing exercise.
Advantages: Eye-popping visuals, much more smoother plot, and one of the best car chases I've ever seen Disadvantages: Some people may think its more recycled than reloaded
