Matrix

             The Matrix is a futuristic thriller starring Keanu Reeves as
             Neo, a computer hacker, exploring the questions of reality and
             human existence. In the opening of the movie, Neo is starting to
             piece together bits of information he believes signify something
             is amiss in reality. Neo is positively certain that at the
             center of all this information is something called The Matrix.
             Neo is not in control of his own life, and he is plugged into a

             begins by proposing he rids himself of all formal opinions so he
             can be really sure of all he accepts to secure firm knowledge in
             the sciences. Descartes decides upon the foundational project
             which is to gain firm founded beliefs and get rid of any beliefs
             he is uncertain of. Descartes uses three arguments to justify
             his knowledge: The Sensory Perception Argument, The Dreaming
             Argument, and The Evil Genius Argument. Also, Descar...
