No offense taken Victor - I enjoyed Matrix, and parts of Saving Private Ryan, but I would be the first to admit that both movies are flawed on many levels and certainly would not feel compelled to defend either one.>>> I am truly sorry "movies" like that are being watched<<<
I dunno - I can think of some films that are a lot worse that pass for "mainstream" entertainment - especially those films that glorify violence as an acceptable solution for dealing with life's problems and kid's films that are mean-spirited or include inappropriate subject matter. I'm not sure what you specifically find objectionable in Matrix or SPR but they are IMO fairly benign compared to much of the tripe that passes for "entertainment" these days. (Starting to sound like a cranky old fart - or worse, my parents - "that hippie-crap rock music you kids listen to is garbage!").
It's a complex topic that can stir complex emotions - cinema as a reflection of our culture.
