The Matrix: A Futuristic Idea
The mind boggling film, The Matrix, starring Keanu Reeves, Laurence Fishburne, Carrie-Anne Moss and Hugo Weaving and directed by Andy Wachowski was a successful film with an unforgettable plot. The genre of The Matrix is science fiction/ action. It contains constant kung fu fighting and always leaves you at the edge of your seat. It takes place in the year 2306, where humans no longer control the world, instead machines do. This movie plays on the psyche of the audience, introducing the idea of a paradox universe.
