The Matrix (1999)
In the near future, a young man leads a double life, connected by computers. By day, he is Anthony, a software developer, but by night he becomes Neo, a hacker. He is unaware that two powerful forces are closing in on him. Trinity, a member of a secret underground army, believes Neo is the savior they have been waiting for. On the other hand, government agents in suits hope to capture Neo first, to prevent him from being used by the mysterious Morpheus to reveal a terrible truth to humanity: that the reality people experience is a computer-generated replacement for the actual world, which was destroyed in the past.
