THE MATRIX 1999

This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill - you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.

The Matrix (1999) Dir. The Wachowskis

It’s 20 years since the Matrix was released, and my local cinema did a screening. I’d never seen this film on the big screen and hadn’t even really re-watched it over the last decade or so. How lucky then that in the middle of the third wave Keanaissance that is upon us I was able to experience this epic as it was meant to be experienced.

The sound of this film is the surprise star. Anyone who has ever watched it on DVD will know the sheer pain of turning the volume up and down because inferior TV speakers can’t cope with the dynamic range of Dane Davis’ incredible sound design. Despite a decade of forgetting the events of the film, despite references to The Matrix echoing through pretty much any action movie made in the 21st century, there are sound cues in this moment that were as familiar to me as the sound of my own cat begging for food. The transition of Neo’s scream into a garbled digital whine, the elegant concealment of an alarm clock sound under a heavy dance track, the unearthly echo of Morpheus’ voice that hints at the unnatural nature of the environment he’s speaking in: The sound of this film is as big a character as Neo isn’t... but more on that later. 

We all remember Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Anne Moss and Laurence Fishburne’s performances in this movie, but spare a thought for Julian Arahanga (Apoc) and Belinda McClory (Switch), who for whatever reason seem to have landed the Matrix equivalent of the red-shirted-ensign role. There were probably some great ideas behind these characters, as the attention to detail elsewhere in the film is so essential to its making, but these two do end up as “the one who wears white” and “the other one.” Other than the fact that I could hear the soundtrack of Midsommar blaring through the back wall of the cinema, this is probably the only negative point I have about this moviegoing experience. 

Something that really struck me, as Keanu Reeves slowly takes over the internet through no fault of his own, is that the ultimate Keanu formula was really made concrete in this film. Keanu + Minimal Dialogue = Smouldering Intensity. What I never noticed about the Matrix when I watched it as a teen is that Neo spends most of the film being talked at. His weird ginger hacking client talks at him, Leah from Home and Away talks at him, Trinity, Morpheus, Cypher, Agent Smith, the Oracle - all these characters spew great swathes of script at him and Neo actually says very little. It also struck me that dialogue-sponge and “woah” merchant Neo really might not be “The One” (no matter how excited my 12 year old self was when I realised that Neo is an anagram of one...). 

The message I took away from the film this time around is that Neo’s becoming the one may well be a choice rather than fate. This is probably not news to anyone who has watched the movie as an adult but guess what team, this is my first time viewing The Matrix with a fully developed human brain in my skull. There is no spoon, is it possible that there is no fate? Neo breaks the rules of the Matrix and becomes the one because he wants to. People don’t fall in love out of destiny, Trinity fancied the pants off Neo, she chose him. Wild. 

If you’ve brushed The Matrix under the rug because John Wick satisfies all your bone-crunching-Keanu cravings I urge you to take another look. As an adult, fully understanding for the first time all of the themes and potential undertones of this movie (questions of gender identity, the coming of AI, Hugo Weaving being fucking brilliant 24/7) this film was so much stronger, scarier and more intense than it ever could have been for 12 year old me.

Filme - “Matrix” (1999)

Matrix, um clássico filme de ficção científica, foi exibido em maio de 1999, e teve como diretoras e roteiristas Lana Wachowski e Lilly Wachowski Ele aborda, de forma utópica, uma direta relação entre as tecnologias e os homens, de forma a nos fazer questionarmos sobre nossa existência.

O filme conta a história de Neo, interpretado pelo Keanu Reeves, um jovem programador que passa a ser atormentado por diversos pesadelos no qual ele sempre está conectado, por meio de cabos, a um imenso sistema de computadores do futuro, o que o faz, a cada vez que o pesadelo se repete, questionar sobre a realidade. A trama em si começa quando o personagem encontra Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) e Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss), e descobre que é vítima da Matrix, um sistema de inteligência artificial que manipula a mente das pessoas, criando, assim, uma ilusão de mundo real. A Matrix utiliza os corpos e cérebros das pessoas como fonte de energia.

O roteiro das irmãs Wachowski desperta no telespectador bastante curiosidade, é bastante preciso e sabe revelar cada ponto da história no momento exato e necessário.

O elenco também é formado por: Hugo Weaving, Gloria Foster, Joe Pantoliano, Marcus Chong, Julian Arahanga, entre outros.

“É essa mistura harmônica de elementos bem-pensados que fazem de Matrix um filme atemporal, que traz questionamentos milenares para hoje em dia em uma distopia que nos prende dos segundos iniciais até o clímax. Um longa bem construído, complexo, mas bem explicado e fechado em si mesmo. Certamente um sci-fi que merece ser visto e revisto ao longo dos anos”.

O mundo à nossa volta é real ou apenas uma construção mental de nosso cérebro?
