Description

Have you ever had a dream that you were so sure was real? What if you couldn't awaken? How would you know the difference between dream and reality? When a beautiful stranger (Carrie Ann Moss) leads computer hacker Neo (Keanu Reeves) to a forbidding underworld, he discovers the shocking truth--the life he knows is the elaborate deception of an evil cyber-intelligence. Neo joins legendary and dangerous rebel warrior Morpheus (Lawrence Fishburne) in the battle to destroy the illusion enslaving humanity. Now, every move, every second, every thought becomes a fight to stay alive--to escape The Matrix.

The matrix

iTunes get this sorted download this now could have saved money on all three films.maybe would be happy if the film the long kiss good night could be now available to buy. So you appreciate my anger in that I downloaded the matrix for a good price. Yet again you’re asking me to give now £9 for the three of them in which I feel this is very unfair. Please sort it.

Legendary

If you are watching it just as a sci-fi action movie then obviously youre missing the point (similar case for "Ghost in the shell"). This movie is really makes you think - what if its true?

It’s Mind Opening!

The Matrix is a masterpiece everyone should see. It is one of the most thought provoking, inventive, pioneering, influential and stylish movies of all time and it's also full of philosophical and religious allegories waiting for interpretation. Immortal for its contribution to cinema and pop culture, its brilliant combination of inventive visual effects, excellent vision and exquisite action easily makes it one of the best, most influential and most entertaining movies ever made!

Apple are not loyal to their customers

£7.99 for a film this old when you can buy from eBay at less than a quid. Who is in charge of pricing at iTunes should be sacked, hung drawn and quartered, like we used to do in England before the U.S of A was even discovered by a Spaniard. iTunes do not listen to their loyal customers.

The Matrix movie review (1999)

A very fun, exciting and action packed movie filled with great special effects and Keanu Reeves best role since Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure (1989) !

Film of the decade

The film of the decade!!! I
Will never be bored of this film, even through the sequels were not a
Patch on the 1st instalment of the trilogy in my opinion they were too far fetched. The original 1st film was amazing and I still question now whether I am part of 'The Matrix' in reality !

Great film, just extremely overpriced!

I'd rate this 1 star if the film weren't so brilliant. However, how can large corporations complain about piracy, torrent sites etc at this ridiculous pricing?
I could get a physical copy for half this price at most!

The Matrix: on the subject of pricing

I think £9.99 for a HD version of an excellent film is reasonable. A film that feels ever more pertinent with recent booms of mass-communication and social networking.

The matrix is such a fantastic film, the price here is just to high to by in SD, and it doesn't let you buy in HD. What are you thinking Apple?!

A Great Film - but we already know that !

We know its a great film
We want to watch it on our iPods + iPhones
But we cant afford it !
Could somebody please go to machine city and have a word with the big computer - please ! Or we will get Neo to sort you out !
I keep trying but never get much further than Mobil Ave Undergrounds station - oh gee I just saw two black cats that looked identical to eachother walk right past ! Somebody has been changing the matrix again - I better go !!

No offence everybody

The Martix is amazing, theres no denying that.
But seriously, because half of the reviews on here are complaining about the prices rather than ACTUALLY REVIEWING THE MOVIE some people who havent seen the movie may be put of by a lower rating than it deserves! I get that the prices are incredibly high - I am mean i would never buy it off itunes, but please, get a grip, REVIEW THE MOVIE NOT THE PRICE OF IT.

Great film ! - shame about the price !

This is one of the most iconic/best films of the last decade. I would love to have it on my ipod but I refuse to pay such ridiculous prices on principle. Rather than selling hardly any copies at a ridiculously expensive 7 pounds, why not half the price and sell loads and loads ?!!!

Finally! Why the hell iTunes put the other 2 films on before this ground-breaking film

This film is amazing and don't be put off by bad reviews, they're about the price of the film and the way iTunes rips of UK users, not to do with the quality of the film.
I don't mind paying £7 for this film because it's a good film but I do agree you could pick this up in shops for atleast half the price.
Online companies such as iTunes complain about illegal downloading, but they could easily counteract that by offering songs/movies for cheaper, it's not like they're not getting enough money as it is

Film Is Brill, I don't understand People who write reviews, I think the price is ok for digital downloads. I'm disabled so I can't get out of the house much without help, gettng back to the film. If you enjoy sci-fi, you will enjoy this one

I agree, Rip off.

Come on iTunes, sort it out!!! Please, for all of us.

2008-08-04

Am I ripped off and ignored? Surely not.

I don't really have anything new to add to these reviews but feel there should be customer solidarity because apple really, really need to adjust their prices. I love the Matrix, it's one of my favourite films of the past decade (my star rating reflects this but there is another issue here). At 7 quid a film it's just ridiculous (new films I can understand but not films that are 10, 20, 30 years old), as another customer mentioned there is no packaging and no extras, so why the rip off? It just shows lack of consideration to apple customers and continuing greed from international companies. Come on apple, serve your customers, after all we're the people who got you where you are today...no customers, no company.
I'm so happy cos...
2008-06-22

Brilliant

Excellent film now available for download on your iPhone. Can't understand the negative comments the iTunes store is getting. If people don't like the cost then fine don't buy and go elsewhere. When you weigh it all up it ain't bad.
New DVD's cost you £14.99 and if you want to but a film on Sony's PSP UMD format then you have to fork out £19.99 so iTunes at £10.99 for new films aint bad and for the same quality.
I find it a great service and promotes a greener environment - no package waste.

2008-06-21

I thought Apple were considerate of their customers

No films on iTunes deserve a 5* rating, because the price just drags the film down. Apple you have created a monopoly with iTunes, and if you hate microsoft as much as you say, then why do you follow their ways?
Lower your prices and consider your customers, not everyone are millionaires. If you want people to stop hacking iPhone's and ripping DVD's you need to understand that not everyones wallet is as fat as Steve Jobs'.
Matrix by the way is an amazing film :-D I applaud them.

shops are more

If i went and bought this in HMV, Zavvi or virgin megastore it'll cost me 15. it's cheaper than the american store so thanks itunes, like i said when i get my imac i'll be buying all these with my 50.00 gift card that i've got waiting.
But what i just realised now is dat i can get this in HD DVD trilogy for 14.99 in gamestation

2008-06-20

Why the hell would I buy at this price

Come on Apple why would I want to buy a film that is nearly 10 years old for £6.99 when I can quite easily buy it for £3 or less and then rip it to my itunes library. I buy songs from the iTunes store and dowload the odd Podcast but I will certainly not be buying films unless the prices start to fall significantly. As another reviewer has commented the UK public are probabaly the only people stupid enough to pay this sort of money.

Dont bloodybuy the game, film, music, tv whatever then. Yes it costs but so what. Use your vouchers that some one very thoughtfully bought you for your birthday (if you guys have friends that is)
Great film, only 1 whiner in it also, thats what we like to see, get on the bus or get off, your choice

Review the film not the pricing!

I can't be the only one that thinks iTunes pricing is reasonable? Remember, iTunes movies work across your TV (with Apple TV) computer and iPod/iPhone. Does no one else thing that's a plus and worth paying for? If you don't like the price then don't buy it, simple as that. Oh, and the Matrix is a great movie. Five stars!!

The Matrix

Excellent movie, and cheap price as well :)
penguin123g
2008-06-10

What exactly IS the point, Robbo?

People are dead right to moan about the price. Reviews help people decide whether to buy a product - in this case the product is a download, not simply the film The film may be great but part of the quality of the product is the price.
If it's grotesquely overpriced (as UK iTunes product is compared to US) then it's better not to buy. Lots of reviewers have said where decent deals are possible. If we want a decent deal from iTunes UK, the reviewers are absolutely right to say DON'T BUY. That's the only thing that will get Apple to rationalise the price.
Why would anyone thank Apple for adding film to the way iTunes rips us off?

You either buy it or you don't

stop complaining about the price, if you don't like the price, don't buy it, simple, there are alternatives, someone said use handbrake instead of using iTunes, I know it's expensive but apple don't really care so buy it or don't buy it, don't leave 1 star reviews 'cause of the bloody price

why hasnt it changed

get it sorted please
Peelybabey
2008-06-05

TOO *BEEP* EXPENSIVE!!!

the vast majority of commenters complain about the price. but does anyone at apple actually read those comments? i think we should all send feedback (iTunes -> Provide iTunes Feedback) and tell those greedy bloodsuckers directly what we think about their prices.

jason

£7 pound for a film dis is a rip off i am a local customer of itunes and i wudnt pay this i mean a tv show dats on for 40 odd minutes long are only £1.89 i think you shud put more films on and every film shud be about £3-£4 cause £1.89 for a 40 minute show but you want £10 for an hour and a half film your having a laugh lower the price to £3-£4 pound and i will buy and i doubt any one will complain to that

Mind blowing

This movie was the first of it kind and truely a masterpiece and one of my fav movies of all time. ITunes,I got the box set real cheap now i want it on my i-pod and your charging £7 for it, come on! That's a rip off! At the cinema,Yes! On my i-pod NO! The price is too high for an old movie. Reconsider the pricing on your movies...

2008-06-04

Why this price

The Matrix and many other films availiable are brilliant but the should cost the same as a few tv show eps not £7 per film. I know the rent thing is cool but you only get it for a short length of time. You buy this in shiops in the bargain section. COME ON APPLE LOWER FILM PRICES!

When

is apple gonna actually answer all these complaints about pricing. Everytime i'm on iTunes I see well justified comments about the fact we're getting ripped off and paying twice what we should for the same products. But i never see apple responding...
maybe then we can finally start reviewing the films/ tv show/ music instead of the price.

7£ vs 5£

Why in America does the same film cost 5£? Maybe you're shipping films from there by boats? Or because we're downloading ones from americans servers.
I don't understand this price politics.
The prices should go down, otherwise Who is going to buy?
RadiQ
2008-06-04

A great film, but...

I have a surround sound system and as far as I can see this isn't surround sound. Neither does it have subtitles, which is a must for a deaf relative of mine.
Since I can buy it for the same or less with those extras when I am next in a shop, I think that's what I'll do.
AlfieMovieGoer
2008-06-04

Guys, really not worth £7 to buy when SO MUCH cheaper even at HMV. Also will have none of the brilliant extras or commentary that you'd be paying for when buying the DVD. It's a shame...

Ill be buying new movies i dont already own from the Itunes store if they can keep up with DVD/Blueray releases.
Otherwise, ill be buying the DVDs cheap, and copying them using Handbrake on my MacBook pro and shunting them to my Apple TV that way instead, oh, and no DRM that way,
