Looking at THE MATRIX Films

When Robert Gibson created the science-fiction subgenre known as cyber-punk in the novel NEUROMANCER most people had game hopes for this literary movement. This was because the concept of a technologically advanced corporatist dark future had a sense of realism that STAR trek and STAR WARS missed. Yet, cinematic endeavors in cyber-punk neer truly succeeded. Then, along came THE hyaloplasm which rest unmatched of the most shining of the come throughent science-fiction germinates ever devised.Created by Larry and Andy Wachowski, the plot of THE intercellular substance centers on a beingness where populace live in an internal pseudo- realness reality where life is crafted to perfection. When the hero, Neo, discovers this he launches a riot against the machines that rescue placed military man into a suspended animation sleep. At the pith of this rebellion is the theme of the get if reality is not reality then does it have both value?This can be seen as a metaphor for a number of ways in which valets numb themselves into resource realities whether it is drugs, videogames, consumer culture et al. As such, THE hyaloplasm was the well(p) movie for the right time and it has become a science-fiction chef-doeuvre with millions of fans.It would be difficult to discuss THE intercellular substance without discussing the world in which the story takes place. (That is, THE intercellular substance itself) Probably the most difficult scenery of creating science-fiction is making a believable world. Often, science-fiction crafts worlds that patch entertaining simply arent believable.This detracts greatly from the efficacy for the movie to work. In THE intercellular substance, we have an unbelievably believable world because the the world exists nearly exclusively in the mind. As such, the peachbecomes drawn into the story because there exist some credibility to the fact that the world of THE intercellular substance could actually exist. This is the b rilliance of THE matrix and what makes it such a classic work.THE MATRIX REVOLUTIONS is the terce take aim in THE MATRIX TRILOGY (The less said about the morsel film the better) and it is a sweeping action-adventure film that seeks to bring a final end point to the series. The goal of the film is the same as the maestro film dissolve alternative reality and bring humans to their original state.This is what makes THE MATRIX REVOLUTIONS such an excellent film. It centers on the notion of revolutionary struggle for a good cause. In a way, one could even see parallels to the American regeneration and other colonial liberation struggles and struggles against totalitarianism. As such, THE MATRIX REVOLUTIONS becomes a thrilling and zesty film that taps into the natural human sentiment to be free. Yes, it takes place in a fantastic world hardly this does not make the film any less real. Well, perhaps this is not degree Celsius% accurate.If there ever was a major(ip) flaw found in THE MATRIX REVOLUTIONS it would be that the world of the story deviates from the earthen realness of the original film and delves into the place opera genre. There is nothing inherently wrong with this approach although it does make the themes of the film less striking. However, the themes of what makes a human die hard as the central focus of the film never deviates from the human struggle for self-actualization. That is a powerful theme no numerate how it is presented.Personally, I found the first film in the trilogy to be a brilliant exercise in science-fiction mainly because its alloy of realism and surrealism made the film a unique experience. The shift to action-adventure in the third film was somewhat disappointing just now the film was still a fictitious character work. Ultimately, it is the themes that appealed to me the greatest and this is why I conceptualize these two films seminal works in the science-fiction genre.BibliographyHanley, Richard.
