watching this in the theaters was the most amazing thing on earth
-
Fantastic reaction! I think you're the only reactors that realized why Neo was able to come back to life. Everyone else thinks it is a "love's first kiss" kind of thing. Noticing the hotel, Alice in Wonderland, and how the agents worked. It was so much fun watch you two. Subscribed. Keep going!
-
This movie blew my mind in 2000. Still one of my favorite movies of all time.
-
If you didn't realize...The Oracle tells Neo that he is the one and that he will die before he becomes the one. "You have the gift" "Looks like you are waiting for something" "Another life maybe"
-
Itās difficult to describe today the profound effect this incredible film had when it came out on all future sci-fi movies and also on teenagers who saw it.
-
Nice. This movie changed everything.
-
Still my favorite movie to this day. It beat out "Back to the Future" and "Jurassic Park"

44:53 Tooter Turtle in his 1960-61 cartoon Would cry "Mr. Wizard" for help! Since he always wound up botching the jobs that Mr. Wizard sent him on. So when he got in trouble, he'd cry out "Help, Mr. Wizard!", it invoked the powers of Mr. Wizard to get him home. Mr. Wizard complied, with his magical chant: "Drizzle, Drazzle, Druzzle, Drome, time for this one to come home!" I loved the show when I was a kid!
-
the Agents in the Matrix are sentient programs, meaning they have a mind of their own...
-
I really enjoyed that, truly, you are the first reactors I've seen understand that when Neo "dies" and comes back alive after hearing Trinity that it was because his brain still was able to process it. Folks tend to think "his heart stopped, so this is just a magic "truly love's kiss" filler" or open ended "how did that work?". What, exactly, do people think CPR is for?
-
So much fun! You are my favourite reaction-channel, hands down. Looking forward to see many more!
-
A lot of people hate on the sequels. They are not at the level of the first one, but still really cool movies in a very interesting world with thought provoking themes. Hope you watch them.
-
This was the first movie I ever purchased on DVD. Nearly 25 years later and I still have that same DVD.
-
Definitely watch 2 and 3! 2 goes a lot more in depth and explains the creation of the Matrix. When they explain it it will make you think even more that this could actually be our reality. Plus the fight scenes are great. Trinity is one of the most badass female characters of all time!
-
20:16 "maybe you'd lack a sense of achievement though..." -Niamh what I like is you're still thinking about this a minute after the scene š
-
The Matrix 4...enter at your own risk! Enjoyed your reactionsā¤
-
Point Break. Speed. Bill and Ted.
-
Such a great reaction! IĀ“v re-lived the Matrix with you, thanky you!
-
All of the main characters took months of martial arts training because the action sequences depended on seeing rhe actors doing things close up. If they use stunt doubles they cut it so you can't see their faces,
-
The oracle never explicitly says that Neo isnāt the one. HE said he wasnāt, he didnāt believe it, so when she said being the one is like being in love, you just know it. Neo had to accept it, just like in his training with Morpheus. The more confident he becomes, the more he starts accessing his true potential
