The Matrix (original one) was a fun B movie sci fi but not exactly a great film. One thing that is kind of funny is that the directors originally intended Neo to be played by Will Smith, while Morpheus was supposed to be played by Val Kilmer.
- I don't think Kilmer mentions that in his excellent "Val" biography movie.evilpeacock
- He turned down the Neo part, was then offered to play Morpheus and refused againspl33nidoru
- Matrix was damn amazing for its time - much more than a b movie.inteliboy
- "What If" casting decisions are fascinating. Bruce Lee could've been Rambo (Andre Vajna connection)Brabo_Brabo
- That's some high-end cinematography, VFX and action for a B movie.NBQ00
- I guess some people focus more on the visual effects. I'm talking about the acting and writing like mg33 said.yuekit
- It's a movie that was culturally influential but not a classic on the level of Blade Runner or other great sci fi,
Also lol @ Bruce Lee as Ramboyuekit
