| Re: The message of the matrix.. I don't think there is any message in The Matrix. If you check interviews at the time with the directors, they admit that it's reason for being is 'Kung Fu versus computers'.
It's only after they realised what a success they had on their hands that they got all pretentious and quasi-religous in the two sequels.
Take the first film for what it is - a chance to cheer the good guys whilst munching popcorn. The sequels? A waste of time. |
