SYNOPSIS

In Dolby Atmos! This film by writer-directors The Wachowskis, inspired by (and named for) the virtual world in William Gibson’s 1984 novel Neuromancer, envisions a dystopian future where humans are trapped in a virtual reality simulation while AI machines harvest their bodies for energy. Cyberpunk themes blend with stylistic elements from anime and Hong Kong action cinema as computer hacker Neo and a group of rebels fight against the machines to free humankind. A critical and box-office hit, the film won Oscars for Film Editing, Sound, Sound Effects Editing, and Visual Effects. It also spawned numerous sequels, comics, video games, and a series of acclaimed animated shorts.
