The 250

147. The Matrix - Summer of '99 (#18)


Listen Later

Hosted by Andrew Quinn and Darren Mooney, and this week with special guests Grace Duffy and Alex Towers, The 250 is a (mostly) weekly trip through some of the best (and worst) movies ever made, as voted for by Internet Movie Database Users. New episodes are released every Saturday at 6pm GMT.
This time, continuing our Summer of '99 season, Lana and Lilly Wachowski’s The Matrix.
1999 was a great year for movies, with a host of massively successful (and cult) hits that would define cinema for a next generation: 10 Things I Hate About You, The Virgin Suicides, Run Lola Run, Election, Cruel Intentions, Fight Club. The Summer of '99 season offers a trip through the year in film on the IMDb's 250.
Thomas Anderson lives a fairly ordinary life; an office drone by day, a computer hacker by night. However, Anderson's life quickly begins to fall apart when he finds himself drawn to a mysterious hacker named Trinity. It soon becomes clear that Anderson's life (and his very reality) is not at all what it appears to be.
At time of recording, it was ranked 18th on the Internet Movie Database's list of the worst movies of all-time.
