I believe that honor goes to Die Hard but Matrix is a damn close second.

Not really.

The Matrix is dated as fuck, watch it again and it'll look as corny as anime.

Actually, the anime it was inspired by had more restraint and measure. Certainly aged a lot better.

This is so sad tho. Fight Club, a movie released in the same year hasn't aged jack shit in comparison.

That's the thing about sci fi, it's prone to getting outdated fast.

John Wick
Dredd
Mad Max
The Raid

And those are just the recent ones that are better.

it's not even the best action film of the 90s

No, that would be Terminator 2.

I rewatched The Matrix pretty recently. Looks fine to me.

the matrix aged pretty well

the sequels not so much

The Matrix holds up fine, and only plebs believe that movies "age"

It's most obvious flaw has been the same since it came out, the lack of character development

Ya I rewatched it too. doesn't seemed aged

>only plebs believe that movies "age"
Action movies age very obviously.
Dredd and Escape from NY for example aged pretty badly, and I'm saying this even though I like these movies.

>very obviously
wrong

It's a vapid criticism that means absolutely nothing. The movie has not changed since its release, and the fact that expectations and standards have changed is not a valid complaint against the movie itself.

If you can't be bothered to watch movies understanding the time and place in which they were made, stick to current releases and stop voicing your idiotic opinions.

>the greatest action film
actually the matrix is a power fantasy kino not an action movie

It's a boring Jesus metaphor, not an action movie. The action is as cartoony and bloodless as an episode of Dragonball Z.

I don't care if you got quads, that movie is still 1 hour too long.

>Fight Club, a movie released in the same year hasn't aged
hahaha. cause people keep copying david fincher.

It really wasn't a religious thing until the shitty 3rd one. You could have gotten the impression but it wasn't shoved in your face every 10 minutes like the terrible 3rd one.

No, because this is

Reminder that the machines are good and there is literally nothing wrong with living in the matrix

Think before you post.

When it comes to how it's shot - yes. Nothing even comes close. But that's about it.

...

It's better sci-fi than action, but it's good for both.

Could romance and comedy arguments be made?
