-"Do you think that's air you're breathing now?"
If there is a film equivalent of a motivational postcard depicting sunset with a scribble reading "Which one of you bitches wants to dance?", then it must be The Matrix. Because there is no spoon. It's a fairy tale conveying that everything can be alright in the end, complete with a wise fox offering helpful advice, a horse with golden mane that can fly and help you achieve your mission and a crossroad where a hero must choose which path will most likely lead to the water of life. And never before and never after was the unchanging expression of Keanu Reeves used so efficiently and ostentatiously. I will, probably forever, love everything about this film, including the fact that the steak Cypher enjoys so much looks absolutely revolting to me.
