The Matrix

Descartes wonders what else that he can know by using this same logic, but first must establish the idea of God and that God is not deceiving him. He reasons that God exists because he as a mortal could not create the idea of such a powerful being, and only a being as powerful as God could have caused an idea of a God that is perfect. Descartes goes on to reason that because God is perfect, then God would not deceive him about anything. It’s not that Descartes is being deceived, but rather his lack of knowledge or understanding about the matters at hand is causing the problem he is facing.

The Matrix and the Allegory of the Cave focus on one central idea: What is real?. They engage the audience in a fictional world where people live in false realities without knowing it. They make us question our own knowledge. Their storylines connect in that the protagonist discovers that everything he knows is a big lie and now he must discover the truth. The protagonist is thrown all of the sudden into the real world and then, he continues to seek the absolute truth. Neo and the prisoner inquire whether knowing the truth is a blessing or a curse.

Lastly, Christopher Nolan uses setting to effectively capture and confuse the audience. Inception has many twist and turns that capture the viewer in a way that makes the viewer want to dive deeper into the story. A large portion of the movie takes place inside the dreams of a man. The setting in all of its well thought madness captures the confusing plot of the movie. at any given time the setting could change, keeping the audience on their toes. The setting is also used to describe characters because the dreams that take place are continuations of the subjects thoughts during the

The majority of human beings have their consciousness/minds trapped within the Matrix, a computer simulated world in which their minds are born, live in, and die, while their bodies are connected to it via cerebral connection but, remain in a dormant slumber and are never used. While they are connected to the matrix, their bioelectricity is harvested, powering the artificial intelligence. Neo, with the help of Morpheus (the leader in the resistance

Camera techniques is a very general aspect of cinema that covers all movements, lens’, angles, and shot types a camera can ascribe to. For example, the camera angle can establish the mood and tone of a sequence, with the application of high camera angles depicting characters as exposed. Furthermore, camera movement comprises of zooming, panning, tilting, and tracking as a way of producing emotion and compelling viewers. Camera lens’ spans from telephoto to wide angle and gives to the tone and appearance of the movie. Finally, shot types can include long shot, extra-long shot, close up, extra close up, and point of view, and form circumstance of the characters in their settings amid that moment in the plot. In Edward Scissorhands, director Tim Burton relies upon a bevy of different camera angles to capture Edward as an assailable protagonist, alone and existing as separate from community.

The camera moved in a slow pace while in circulation motion. This is a general term for all the manipulations of the film strip by the camera in the movie. This happened when Neo dodged the bullets by bending backwards before smith shoot him in the side of the leg. The blue colour represent “the real world” of Zion and also symbolise the body. The yellow colour appear in the matrix world and represent the spirit and even Heaven. The green colour that appear which is the colour of the matrix and it also indicate the mind. In this new axis-switched medium close-up, we see more of Neo's face and less of Trinity's face. We see that in terms of profile and as well as the darkness. Neo was now more on-axis with the camera and is lit brighter. The display features of special frame that allows the skirt of the coat to flare a little just as it does on screen. In these film, they used mise-en-scene dominantly to build mystery within the pill scene. Regular cinematography, editing, and dramatic sound effects were also used, to captivate the audience and build tension. Morpheus is gave Neo an opportunity to view reality from another perspective, and forget the world he once knew. The act began with a close-up, an important shot used to create confusion as the viewers is unaware of the setting. The act itself contains leading of close-ups and reverse

Millions of people flock to the movie theater year after year on a quest to be entertained. Even a mediocre movie has the ability to take the audience to another place, escaping the realities of their own life, if only for a mere two hours. Some movies are simply pure entertainment. And then, there are those movies that provoke conversation long after the film has been viewed. Dystopian themes are not new, and have historically provided a template to gage the course of human existence. The Matrix portrays a society where humans exist without freedom. The film is not only entertaining, but also thought provoking. It paints a world with two different dimensions, one with the mind numbing

In the movie, Neo takes a huge risk by saving Morpheus. After Neo saves Trinity from falling down the building and faces Morpheus, he mentions what the Oracle says “Sorry kiddo. You got the gift, but it looks like you are waiting for something. Your next life maybe, who knows? That's the way these things go.”(Matrix). The Oracle tells Neo that he is not the one. When Neo tries to mention what the Oracle said, Morpheus quickly interrupts him and says, “She told you exactly what you needed to hear, that's all. Neo, sooner or later you're going to realize, just as I did, there's a difference between knowing the path and walking the path.”(Matrix). Neo does not believe he is the one but Morpheus reminds Neo what he is capable of by praising him

Films and movies are a composition of elements that make that essentially come together as one to form a piece of art. Although a film is not complete with missing elements, some elements when used out of place can break a movie. Some of these elements include, but are not limited to, a character’s costume and makeup, lighting, camera direction, acting, special effects, and, sound effects and music. In some films one element may be the overriding factor but when put together, these elements work together to please an audience.

The story begins when we see Neo asleep in front of his computer in which a program runs automatic researches on another hacker called Morpheus. As the program searches for information, the screen goes black and messages can be seen on the screen telling Neo to wake up and “to follow the white rabbit.” As he fully wakes up, someone knocks on the door and a girl with a white rabbit tattoo shows up. Neo decides then to follow the girl to a nightclub where he met Trinity. After his encounter, Neo wakes up in his bed as all of this was a dream. Later on, when at work, Mr. Anderson receives a

The Matrix Interweaves much symbolism, mythology, philosophy, and psychology. On the surface, the movie challenges the dominance of technology in our culture and predicts an apocalyptic result from the use of artificial intelligence. Yet, behind the human struggle for survival is a mythical backdrop upon which are backlit some of C.G. Jung's basic ideas regarding the human psyche. These Jungian ideas include the ego-Self relationship and how it relates to the persona, the shadow, individuation, and the transcendent function.

The general statement made by the Wachowski brother’s in their film The Matrix is that without courage, nobody would be motivated to embark on new adventures. More specifically, as Neo developed into a more courageous man, he was able to reach his full potential.

The Matrix is a film where reality becomes only a cover up for what is true reality. Within this movie, there is a reality of the regular world and there is the reality of the Matrix. This movie forces one to ask what reality truly is. The ontology of this movie includes two separate realities which each include people within them, fully convinced that their reality is the true reality. Neo, the main character, is given the option to take one of two pills and live in the regular world or the world of matrix forever.

In the opening sequence of the film, I am going to analyse the effects of different camera shots, as well as other factors, which engage the viewers’ interest.
