Can't Find Us?
In the late 1990's, an actor by the name of Keanu Reaves, teamed up
with the directing-duo of Andy and Larry Wachowski, to bring the
Sci-Fi fantasy called "The Matrix" to movie theaters everywhere.
Fueled by high-energy scene-blocking, revolutionary "bullet”-camera
cinematography, and lightning-quick, precision Kung-fu fighting
sequences, the Matrix not only succeeded at the box office, but
spawned two sequels.
The Sci-Fi trilogy revolves around Reaves who portrays Neo, a gifted
computer hacker who is awakened to the startling revelation that his
life, and the lives of his fellow humans, were in reality an intricate
computer-generated fantasy created to keep mankind subdued,
placated and under control!
In the Matrix's dystopian future, a massive self-aware computer
controls every aspect of human existence, and mankind has been
reduced to pod-encased, interlinked, "human batteries" whose
electro-chemical brain impulses provide the energy necessary to
power their dreamworld, and ultimately, their own computer-created
captivity.
The people under the control of the Matrix, eat, sleep, awaken, go to
work and play. They have triumphs and tragedies; successes and
failures; they give birth and suffer the loss of loved ones. Their lives
are far from perfect in the Matrix's computer-created reality; but that is
why the computer's deception is so perfect, and its control over
mankind so complete. Human beings inherently know that perfection
