  • Essay / Fate and Free Will in the Matrix - 816

    'I'm trying to free your mind, Neo. But I can only show you the door. You are the one who has to go through this. "How does The Matrix explore fate and free will? Destiny and free will remain two recurring themes in this film that are of major importance throughout the film. The Matrix directed by the Wachowski brothers and developed in 1999 , became world famous due to its unique structure and unusual visual effects known as "Bullet Time" as well as the "green tint". One of the main focuses being Neo, who symbolizes "The One" Fate, essentially your destiny and your free will, i.e. a decision you make without obligation to anyone, are both shown at different times. of the film There are a few key scenes where these points are evident and where it explores these main themes Some key connections to this topic are the pill scene, right after Morpheus and Neo practice the Japanese martial arts known as. of jujitsu and his visit to the Oracle. This film has many overarching connections and will discuss the major contributions that all of this had on the film as a whole. Destiny in The Matrix remains a non-negotiable factor because the world has been pre-programmed, with every action predetermined. Free will, however, was visible in small amounts and was extremely valued. In this film, the choice you are manipulated into thinking in life is a complete illusion because the path to who you are has already been set. The true meaning of this is that destiny is something you have no control over, ultimately your destiny. One clear example that stands out is the “pill scene” that happened during the first half hour of this film and has great significance. During this scene, Neo is put in a situation where he must decide whether to choose between the middle of paper......Oracle in The Matrix is ​​due to fate. In the end, destiny was the master of his destiny as he became the “Chosen One” in this film. The Matrix, once released, was a world-famous film that involved a lot of thinking and the ability to interpret complex ideas. However, these two themes of fate and free will were creatively and intelligently immersed in this film. The pill, jujitsu, and Oracle scene were three main examples of the effect this all had on The Matrix, but there were a few others scattered throughout the film. This remained a fairly mysterious concept, but as more in-depth thoughts came to my mind, it seemed very interesting. By exploring these themes, it forces us to think about whether we are in a matrix and what our reaction would be if we discovered that the world we lived in was a fake, never our true reality.Anahita
