I don't get what's so philosophical or deep about the matrix. It's a flashy, stylistic action film. It also proposes the possibility of reality as we see it being an illusion or simulation, but never really goes anywhere with that premise. I guess it was the first mainstream action film to have themes like that, and introduced a lot of people to that idea (including me at 12 probably), and that's pretty cool.




Most of the dialogue present philosophical questions. In fact, the dialogue purposely detracts from the humanity of the characters for this purpose. They often say things as if they were sitting around a University table high on Benzo's instead of things fitting for the situation (such as "OH FUCK THEY'RE SOME MOTHERFUCKING AGENTS. OH SHIT, OH SHIT, OH SHIT!)

Ever realize how the characters can seem inconsistent, or that a majority of the characters are incredibly rational, cool-headed, and speak as if they actually are robots instead of humans in a robotic construct world?

Moments of genuine interaction with the Matrix are obviously forced for the sake of character construction. They were concept writers more so than character builders.
