  Why is the aspect ratio different from theatrical release? The dealer said he adjusted it by a scene which depicted a gun barrel. He used the ratio that made the barrel as circular as possible. This I understand as an excellent test, but the rest of the scenes look like it needs a 16:9 ratio instead of the something on the order of 5:2 ratio he used.

  Maybe I'm getting old, but the Matrix is just too much. Interesting premise and development and then the movie should wrap it up. Instead, it just seems to go on putting poor Keanu through special effects. At this point in the theater I was ready to leave. I think this movie fits the under 20 generation that just can't have too many chase scenes with cool effects at 110 dB. Reminded me of Armagedon (note correct spelling). One viewing a lifetime is enough. Sorry kids.

  Sound and picture were good. I have to say IMO that this was a hard movie to watch. It was more of a workout than a relaxing flic. To much to think
  about and figure out.

  I didn't go see "The Matrix" on purpose when it was released because I
  thought that it was just another special effects extravanganza; finally
  saw it at a discount theater recently and was pleasantly surprised and
  entertained. Better than I anticipated; reminded me somewhat of "Dark City"
  which I saw upon initial release and liked. As you say, Carrie-Anne Moss
  was a standout. - AH
