hehehe......the matrix!!!

when i saw the matrix at home i didnt really un derstand it at all. but when i watched it in class i really started to realize what it was really about. and it was really intriguing.


the real worls is basically being controlled by machinery monsters. all the people are being fooled into thinking that the world that they are living in is the real world when in all actuallity the are being fooled. keanu reeves who plays the character "neo" is the one who is looking for answers to why this is happening and how to put a stop to it. although i still dont fully understand the whole story but i got that much. throughout the whole entire movie all i kept thinking was "what if"...and i still do. i felt like the matrix was like......a computerized dreamworld where these machines were controlling our every move. like a girl playing with a barbie doll. the movie was kinda bizzare in a way to. the matrix was all about finding the truth. and i feel like thats all we do. so the movie sorta representd us in a way. the people living in the matrix are just like us living today. the modern matrix is considered the government. they control what we see, what we wear ect. this is the same in the matrix. thats why its such a good comparison. and also socrates cave. we definately do live in socrates cave because we have yet to visualize what the truth is. also when you think about it, the matrix is more action packed version of "the allegory of the cave' because they are very similar.
