THE MATRIX raises the stakes on the sci-fi thriller genre with top-of-the-line special effects and a story that speaks to subterranean fears at the start of the new millennium. Keanu Reeves plays Neo, a cubicle-dwelling software geek by day and malevolent hacker by night. When Zen-like Morpheus awakens Neo to the "real" world, where humans have been captured by a race of machines that live off their body heat and imprison their minds, it is time to save the world—with gravity-defying kung fu choreography by Chinese master Yuen Wo Ping and computer-assisted live action that redefines the word "Whoa!"
