11. The Matrix (1999)

Another excellent and unique vision of modern society is most definitely the Wachowski brothers’ masterpiece called “The Matrix.”

This groundbreaking blockbuster managed to change the way people looked at the reality altogether and definitely redefined the way movies were made.

The CGI used in The Matrix had never been seen before and was pure innovation that made jaws drop all over the globe.

The very concept of The matrix was genius as well. It depicts a dystopian future in which reality as perceived by most humans is actually a simulated reality called “the Matrix”, created by sentient machines to subdue the human population, while their bodies’ heat and electrical activity are used as an energy source.

The movie magnificently depicted the sense of detachment from reality that came with internet access, and set many a new trend in storytelling, cinematography and sci-fi genre in general.

You definitely have to watch it while you can, or you can simply take the red pill instead and live in ignorance.
