Brand new factory sealed vhs tape is the full screen collector's edition, which is perfect for old school tube TVs as the image will fill your square frame. Also, the uncompressed audio is more robust than its digital counterpart. Just pop-n-go, no pesky menus to navigate. The plot involves Neo (Reeves), a mild-mannered software author by day, a feared hacker by night. He's recruited by a cell of cyber-rebels, led by the profound Morpheus (Fishburne) and the leather-clad warrior Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss). They've made a fundamental discovery about the world: It doesn't exist. It's actually a form of Virtual Reality, designed to lull us into lives of blind obedience to the "system". We obediently go to our crummy jobs every day, little realizing, as Morpheus tells Neo, that "MATRIX is the wool that has been pulled over your eyes--that you are a slave". The rebels want to crack the framework that holds the Matrix in place and free mankind. Morpheus believes that Neo is the Messianic "One" who can lead this rebellion, which requires mind power as much as physical strength. Arrayed against them are the Agents, who look like 'Blues Brothers'. The movie's battles takes place in Virtual Reality; the heroes minds are plugged into the combat. (You can still get killed, though: "The body cannot live without the mind".) Lots of special features after the movie with 4 making-of documentaries so just let that tape roll.
