And if you watch the matrix today for the first time, everything is cliche and done to death.
The reason for this is that every single action movie after the matrix has copied it. When it released, it blew people away. No one had seen anything like it. I remember going to see it after an event because of how much people wouldn’t stop talking about it. Even overhyped, I was blown away.
The Matrix defined action movies for a decade+
I actually saw it on release in the cinema. Hated it. Ah well :-)
I saw it in theaters too. Two months later, I saw The 13th Floor. Dark City had come out the year before.
I think that all of this was just the zeitgeist of the time.
