Neo has always questioned his reality but the truth is far beyond his imagination. Neo finds himself targeted by the police when he is contacted by Morpheus, a legendary computer hacker branded a terrorist by the government. Morpheus awakens Neo to the real world, a ravaged wasteland where most of humanity have been captured by a race of machines which live off of their body heat and imprison their minds within an artificial reality known as the Matrix. As a rebel against the machines, Neo must return to the Matrix and confront the agents, super powerful computer programs devoted to snuffing out Neo and the entire human rebellion.Written by redcommander27 Plot Summary Plot SynopsisPlot Keywords: Computer Hacker The Matrix Computer Hacker Reality See more »Taglines: The Future isn't user friendly...[Australian Poster]See more »Genres:Action Adventure Sci-FiMotion Picture Rating (MPAA)Rated R for sci-fi violence and brief language.

There have been a lot of visually stunning works but nobody caredabout the hero. (Or nobody simply cared about anything.) There a few,though, which aroused interest and intellect but nobody 'ooh'-ed or'aah'-edat the special effects
