'''''The Matrix''''' is a film released in 1999, produced by Joel Silver, and distributed by Warner Bros. It stars [[Keanu Reeves]], Carrie Anne Moss, and [[Laurence Fishburne]]. The concept of the movie presumes that life as we know it is merely a [[virtual reality]] simulation, run by a race of [[sentient]] machines cultivating humans for electricity. In the film, Neo (Reeves) discovers this and is rescued from the virtual reality world and brought into the real world, a dystopian future where the survivors of Mankind fight against the machines. Through his training, Neo learns that, because the Matrix is a virtual reality world, that the "rules" of the world can be bent, allowing for superhuman strength and speed.  He ultimately learns that he is "The One", a [[Jesus Christ|Christ]]-like figure who has the ability to manipulate the Matrix beyond the capabilities of even the machines that control it, and is destined to lead all of humanity out of the Matrix.
