[ILUG-Social] The Matrix

[Donncha O Caoimh]

I went to see it again last night. Yep, Keannu (sp?) can't act very
well, but I'm still of the mind that it would make a great book if
written by a good sci-fi author. There's a lot of material there to
explore, 200 years of human history, how much can people bend the matrix
to their will? (the spoon bit..) 

I'm a voracious reader and I appreciated the build up of the plot. It
was quiet compared to other films, and the lead actor didn't help there,
but the other actors made up for that.

Donncha.
