Despite the cultural impact Matrix had I just could never get into it and find it overrated.

 

[John McHenry]

I agree but I also find Drive pretty overrated also honestly I think Drive would be nowhere if not for it's soundtrack.

 

[Andrew]

Voted The Matrix.

I agree but I also find Drive pretty overrated also honestly I think Drive would be nowhere if not for it's soundtrack.

Ok lets see, Ryan Gosling, Carey Mulligan, Bryan Cranston, stunning ratro visuals, brutal action, sharp direction, tightly ploted story, twists. No your right only the soundtrack stands out for me lol.

This is a tough one as I have had longer to think about the Matrix's impact and at the time it really did stand out as a unique Sci-Fi but Drive just gets better every time I see it and is in my top three from 2011 so thats the way I went.

I love Drive, that gets my vote. My favourite film last year.

 

[Chris Dresdon]

I'm going with the Matrix on this one, my memories of going to see that trilogy of films are more significant.

 

[Rated R Superstar]

I haven't seen Drive yet, but Matrix is one of the few films I will go out of my way to watch.

 

[Chris]

Matrix for me, I do think some people overrate it quite a bit though.

 

[CaptainxBumout]

The matrix has already gone down in history. Drive, while a good movie tries way too hard and is pretty much already an afterthought.

Drive was pretty boring for something so heralded, and I hated the ending.

You killed everyone, take the fucking money you loony.

 

[We Are Legion]

Matrix was a brilliant movie. Though I definitely liked the plot more before I realized it was basically the same plot as Terminator, but whatever. I just wish the rest of the trilogy was as strong as the original.

Matrix!

You killed everyone, take the fucking money you loony.

Which would have been a far more boring ending, the way it did end leaves you to wonder what happens. Sign of a great film.

Also how can anyone yet say what legacy Drive will leave? It is barely a year old and certainly is not an after thought for me.

 

[Deezy]

That ending didn't leave anything up for the imagination of the audience, it was just some dumbass leaving money.

Not the sign of a great movie.

The Matrix was an amazing movie, the whole concept was great and it was something completely different. The sequels were good but not great but the first was a game changer.
