The Matrix: Review

Remember the Chinese philosopher who wondered whether he was a man who had dreamed he was a butterfly, or a butterfly dreaming that he was a man? You can bet your life directors Larry and Andy Wachowski do. The time is somewhere in the near future, and corporate drone Keanu Reeves is about to wake up. What he discovers will just about blow his mind — and yours as well. With exciting action, stupendous Oscar-winning special effects and a cast that looks good enough to eat, the film includes Carrie-Anne Moss and Laurence Fishburne.

New Heroes at NBC: Charming Chuck, Dark Bionic | Matt Roush | 7/17/2007
The network of Heroes is going hero-crazy this fall. But two of NBC's more buzzed-about new genre series couldn’t be more different: a dark and disturbing "reimagining" of '70s superhero series Bionic Woman and the laugh-out-loud action-comedy Chuck, about a computer nerd whose brain is accidentally wired with government secrets, catapulting him into the spy game. Both were presented in back-to-back sessions at the TCA critics' press tour Tuesday morning.Of course, much of the latest Bionic buzz has focused on this week’s announcement that the ever-controversial Isaiah Washington is joining the show for an early five-episode arc as a mystery man brought into the secret bio-science organization that turned Jaime Sommers (Michelle Ryan in a new twist on the old Lindsay Wagner role) into a part-machine superhuman. It’s a casting stunt that at least a few journalists in the room feel could backfire. Executive producer Jason Smilovic defended the casting stunt by saying, &... read more
Cutting Edge 2 Tails Doug & Kate's Kid | Today's News: Our Take | 3/10/2006
In 1992's The Cutting Edge, Moira Kelly's ice-cold skating queen reluctantly partnered with D. B. Sweeney's fallen hockey star to pursue Olympic gold — but also find love — as a pairs team. Fourteen years later, ABC Family's The Cutting Edge 2: Going for the Gold (premiering Sunday at 7 pm/ET, following an airing of the original) finds Kate and Doug's way-older-than-14-(but-deal-with-it) daughter, Jackie, lamenting her own shattered ice dreams, only to eventually join with Alex, an in-line skater, to seek Winter Games glory. Playing young Ms. Dorsey in this follow-up is Christy Carlson Romano, with whom TVGuide.com traded Qs and As. TVGuide.com: So you're w read more
SUPER-SIZED BUDGET | Today's News: Our Take | 1/18/2006
Superman Returns director Bryan Singer apparently is spending money faster than a speeding bullet. A well-placed source tells the New York Post that the already big-budget film, due for a June release, has proven to be "a money pit," and that the final tab "will end up being close to $300 million" — a third of which has gone solely toward visual effects. The resulting on-screen product, says the insider, is "Superman meets The Matrix." A rep for the film told the Post the budget quote "is absolutely absurd," then shouted for "Miss Teschmacher!" read more
