I just re-watched matrix a few days ago and it was a refreshing experience. The movie has some amazing one liners, which, of course, this time round I knew. Nonetheless it was enjoyable. Matrix is one movie that gets a person’s mind rolling about reality and fantasy and how they could be so much more intertwined. I often wondered what would I do if I were given a choice like Neo. I am pretty sure I would not choose the red pill.
In fact, I am of the opinion of Cypher who almost successfully foils the movement of Morpheus and co. Why bother with all that trouble when the matrix is so much more better. Moreover, in real life, there are higher chances of a person like Cypher succeeding. I no longer believe that good wins in the end. In fact, good stands not even a remote chance in front of the mighty evil. Oh, and in real world its not they vs. us, its not machines vs. humans, its humans vs. humans.
So why, as Cypher would argue, mess around with those electrical impulses that are so comforting just to know the horrible reality? Beats me, what about you?
