Though the film was not a huge box office success, it garnered Swank an Oscar for Best Actress and a nomination for Chloe Sevigny for Best Supporting Actress.

The Matrix certainly wasn't Keanu Reeves' first action film, but it became his most iconic (that is until the John Wick series reminded everyone how good he is at this). The sequels, The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutionswere met with mixed responses, but the first still holds up after 20 years. It would be endlessly parodied throughout the...

Sadly, the Best Animated Picture category of the Oscars didn't exist just yet, so it went largely unnoticed in that regard here. But it has been re-released several times in the U.S. in both 2018 and ...

It is a pretty rare accomplishment for a film to achieve a 100% Fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes; it's even rarer for a sequel to obtain it. Toy Story 2 defied the odds and did just that. When Woody gets stolen at a garage sale, Buzz and the rest of the toys go to save him. Two more sequels followed but had the franchise ended with this entry, it sti...
