• When Neo is shooting at the agent on top of the building and the agent dodges all of the bullets, none of them go and damage the building behind him. - Vic Cherubini

• Neo and Trinity completely destroy the inside of the building, but when the final explosion goes off the room is back to normal. - Emma

• This movie is technically flawless because it is all just a glitch in "the matrix" program itself, hence there are no flaws in the movie. - UnKnown

• Neo's 9mm machine gun drops .223 cartridges during the shoot-em-up scene. - Scott

• When Neo is being shot at and he's dodging them and the bady is about to shoot him look at the shadow then when Trinity shoots the bady the shadow is different. - Killer_2000

• When Neo is scaping from the agent almost at the end, the agent shoots more than 6 bullets to his chest, yet Neo has 6 perfect align hole in his chest. - Dizkman

• When Agent Smith shoots Neo in chest the first time and you see the spent shell hitting the ground, the end is smooth, but when it shows the gun from above you can see that they are blanks with crimped ends not the smooth edge like a real bullet. - Phyber

• When Neo is in his work place and receives a FedEx parcel containing the phone, a close shot of him shows him about to rip the parcel open, the next shot from far away shows him with the parcel at his waist picking it up then opening it. - kurt cobain

• There are two occasions when you can see boom mikes reflected in a character's sunglasses when looking up. One when Morpheus is explaing to Neo what the Matrix is when he look up as he says, "Fate as it seems is not without a sense of irony." And in the end after Neo makes the phone call in the booth, right before he "flies". - movieguy

• When Neo first shows up for work he looks up at the name on the building. It is different than the poster in the background when Neo is in the middle of the cubicles when he crosses into the next one. - Fighter Man

• When the agent shoots at Neo, and he dodges the bullets, his cape is moving at regular speed. But since it goes so slow that you can se the bullets his cape should not move at all. - SSL

• In the subway fight when the agent punches at Neo but Neo pulls back and the agent punches through the cement pillar you can easily see the weak/soft part were he is supposed to punch through. - Joe

• Ok, when Neo and Morpheus are going to the Oracle's the camera shows Neo's hand moving closer to move the knob but if you slow it down you can see a camera reflection. The camera is being covered by a shiny black blanket. - godsmack
  • Addition: The doorhandle itself is with a keyhole in the middle, when shot form across the corridor, with close-up it's plain. (DVD) - head

• When Neo and Agent Smith are fighting in the subway scene you can see the cables used for Keanu Reeves to be able to jump out of the way of the train and onto the platform. - kf
  • Addition: It's not only that you can see the cables but you can also see him taking them to help him make his back flip. - TMS

• In the beginning when Trinity is being chased by the cops she jumps the first roof, then the cops do, the last cop falls and you can clearly see the wall flex. Also same scene you can see the ceiling rafters on the roof of the studio. And also while running across the tops of the buildings at the start you can clearly see the picture curtain behind them, it is kind of wavey up the top. - Buff

• I think there's a mistake with the reflection in the building windows in the training program scene right when the action freezes. - Neal
  • Explanation: The windows reflect green but if you listen to the commentary on the DVD they explain that things in the matrix were made to be a little green because the matrix is supposed to be perfect but they didn't quite get it right. Likewise in the training it would look as similar to the matrix as possible. (DVD) - grinder

• Beginning of the movie - Trinity is running away from Agents et al., and crashes through the window, rolls down the stairs. When she looks back, the light she smacked is swinging and squeeking. A second later it is dead still. But still squeeking. - NoSetFine

• When Neo backflips off the subway tracks you can see cables in a couple of frames. - Dan

• When Neo is on top of the building looking down at the cars all the traffic arrows drawn onto the roads are pointing in the opposite direction that the cars are traveling (some the movie was shot in Sydney, Australia all their cars drive on the left hand side). - Psycho Boy Jack

• In the fight scene between Agent Smith and Neo, Agent Smith punches through a wall. OR NOT AS THE CASE MAY BE! Because if you look closely you will see the patch that comes out when he hits it. (It appears darker than the rest of the column.) - Leviathan

• In the rooftop scene where Neo is dodging bullets, he drops his guns on the floor, then the agent starts shooting at him and the camera travels around Neo and the guns are gone! And then they are back when the bullets time effect is over. - Erge

• When Morpheus is shot in the leg he limps to the helicopter. He shows no pain though when Neo drops him about 20 feet to the roof of the other building or when he walks to jogs to the pay phone. - Deftones

• I am very surprised that this has not been pointed out here and cannot claim credit for seeing it originally. In the roof top "steal the helicopter" scene when the showdown between Neo and the agent happens there should be several bodies on the roof from Trinity and Neo's handiwork. They are all gone. - Swampfox

• When Neo meets Morpheus for the first time. Morpheus' left hand is behind his back and the next shot we see his back with his hand alongside his body. When the shot goes back to front his hand is back behind him. - pierre

• In the scene with Thomas Anderson and his boss, one angle shows Thomas with his hands in front of him. Another angle shows his hands behind him. - Chicks

• Before Agent Smith shots Neo at the end of the movie there is a large bloody mark on the back wall to Neo's right. This was left by mistake from the previous take. Watch when Neo falls back, sure enough, he hits his mark perfectly. - Pia

• I don't really understand how Tank survived after he was shot and almost half his midsection is blown off. - RuThiE jO jO

• When Neo falls out of the water slide if you slow it down he has on a orange life presever on his neck. - manifest121
  

• In the steal the helicopter scene Trinity puts the gun to the agents head and says "dodge this" and he just looks at her when he could have really dodged or grabbed the gun in a split second. - Donga

• Same scene, Neo falls to the ground to dodge the bullets when he can only fall as fast as gravity. (He could have bent the rules of the matrix but he didn't know how to then.) - Donga

• When Neo is standing under the tunnel, and the car carrying Trinity, Apoc and Switch stops in front of him, Trinity opens the door and peers out at Neo. On the Back wall behind him, you can see "Wrong Name" written in red. Not really a movie goof, but kinda Ironic. - Ashlee

• Hey, me again. I noticed something else. When the FedEx dude hands Neo the package, he says have a nice day. When Neo and Trinity are in the elevator, the sign that shows which way you are going says have a nice day. I don't know if it's a goof or something, but it's kinda weird. - Ashlee

• In the Helicopter scene when Neo is shooting at the Agents from the Helicopter you can clearly see bullets falling from the gun, some are full cartridges with casing and bullet still intact some are just empty cases. - Marko

• Seems no one in all the goofs of this movie has mentioned this one, when Neo and Trinity are on the roof and one of the agents are about to shoot at Neo, and Neo dodges it, when Neo throws his weapons down clearly the scean b4 Trinity is on his right. But when he says: "Trinity help" he turns his head to the left to ask Trinity for help. - Brian

• When Morpheus is telling Neo about life in the matrix first you see an American policeman and than you see the Commonwealth Bank of Australia logo. - Waylander

• When Agent Smith has Neo on the train tracks in the subway the train is running off overhead power while American trains run off a third rail system. - Waylander

• After Neo is done visiting the oracle, she hands him a cookie, to which Neo takes a bite of the cookie. In the next shot he is trying to figure out why he isn't the one. He talks to Morpheus and the cookie in his hand is a whole cookie, no bite in it at all. Then the shot after that there is another bite. Something with that cookie isn't "as right as rain" - Gajoozie

• I don't know if this occurs in all versions of the film, but on the DVD version I noticed that in the roof battle scene there are several dead or unconscious bodies of fallen officers lying everywhere but when Neo is dodging the bullets in slo-mo and the camera spins around him, there are only 2-3 dead SWAT team guys lying there. (DVD) - BryanHep

• When the helicopter is about to crash look at the shadows on the rooftop. The shadows have different angles from the roof because they were probably shot at different times of the day. The shadows change each scene. (DVD) - Darren "IWSR" Ito

• When Neo/Trinity are on the roof fighting the swat guys the sun is out, then when Neo does the bullet time thing, there is no sun, then the agent blocks the sun with his gun. (DVD) - Darren "IWSR" Ito

• When Morpheus is talking with Neo, many mistakes are made as angles are cut. For example the pills jump hands, or one scene Morpheus has pills, another he doesn't, or his hand jumps locations although the speech implies time is traveling normally. Also Morpheus's belt changes. (DVD) - Shal

• During the interrogation of Morpheus, Agent Smith holds his hands on the sides of Morpheus' head, as the camera shot changes from front to back, the place where his hands are change, then when moved back to a front shot, they are in their original position. (DVD/VHS) - Knightsy

• I know this is kind of twisted but just before Neo goes in to see the oracle and the little boy is telling Neo how to bend spoons and he said that it isn't the spoon that bends, it is only yourself. If it was only the little boy who bends the spoon in himself then how the hell does Neo see it? - ardbunian

• When Neo is escaping from the agents at his work, they first show the outside of the building with the name of the company called Metacortex. Later, Neo is running past the agents inside the building, the name of the company is spelled Meta Cortechs. Or it might of been my eyes. (TV) - Ally

• How does Cypher get into the Matrix to talk to the agents? Someone had to have patched him in and got him out, but that wouldn't make any sense. This is one of the largest, but most overlooked, goofs in the movie!!! - Davicimo

• In the scene where Neo is waiting under the bridge. You see an outrageous amount of water falling from overhead, but a few scenes later when the car pulls up and the angle reverses there is no water falling from the other side of the bridge. (DVD/Widescreen) - DnA

• When Neo is first brought to see Morpheus, Neo is talking to him and Morpheus is holding his hands behind his back. After he takes them down the camera angle quickly changes, then changes back and Morpheus is holding his hands behind his back again. (VHS) - Freeze

• In the scene where Neo first enters the training program, and he meets Morpheus there, the background is all white and there are two recliners and a television set. Right at the start when the camera is zoomed in on Morpheus, take note of the lack of reflection in his sunglasses (basically they are all black). Then the camera is on Neo, but when the camera switches back to Morpheus a few seconds later, the reflection is there in his sunglasses like a mirror! (VHS) - kmckeith

• The Biggest Matrix Goof: That they let people with IQ's under 40 into the theatre. Some of you have good points, but the majority of you are missing the point that The Matrix is a program, can change instantaneously. Also you're giving too much credit to the agents (who can bend the rules but not break them), not enough credit to Morpheus' crew (who's conflict is against not the agents but rather their minds belief of what's happening) and Neo (who has inborn ability to break every rule in the Matrix he wants to, whether he realizes it or not.) you missed the entire point of the movie. - LiQuiDcHeEsE

• In the beginning of the movie "The Matrix," when Trinity is running from the police, she leaps from one building and dives through a window in a building across an alley. Right after she dives off the building, she spins so that her back is toward the ground. But when she crashes through the window she tucks and rolls as if her stomach was toward the ground. - treehugger36

• When Neo goes to see the oracle she says, "I hate giving good people bad news" the camera turns to Neo and in the background you can hear a snort. Does the oracle have some sort of nose issue or was this just a camera man that had to sneeze? Who knows? - a + k

• Belinda McClory (Switch)'s name is spelled Belinda Mc Clory in the credits. Not really a movie goof but still funny. (VHS) - the_one

• When Neo and Morpheus are in the white loading room Morpheus is explaining to Neo and Neo's upset. The image in the reflection of Morpheus's glasses is different that the actual Neo. (DVD) - MajicOmen

• I was wondering, if Cypher and the others on the ship were so tired of eating the nutritious swill, and the awful conditions onboard (according to Cypher, right?) Couldn't they have something like a "training program" that allowed them gourmet meals and Hawaiian vacations, to get a break, at least? (They would still need to eat the swill though, because they would lack the liquid food provided by the matrix). - JFK
  

• Surprised no one caught this, but when Neo is trying to escape his office building, he opens the window and steps out to the ledge. When he turns the corner and grips the side column, he looks down and on the street level there're close to 100 school children crossing the street. After a strong gust, Neo drops the phone just a split second after the school kids were there, and now they are gone and all the cars on the street are in new spots. (DVD-Widescreen) - ToAsTeR

• In the subway scene, after Neo and agent smith have emptied their clips and fallen on the ground, agent smith tosses his gun away while they are both on the ground, when they are shown standing up, you'll see agent smith tossing his same gun again. - RealOneDet

• When Neo goes into room 303 at the end, the agent shoots him a total of 10+ times, but never reloads. The weapon the agent is using is a Desert Eagle Mark XIX. A .357 Desert Eagle can only hold a total of 9 rounds. - GunNut_33

• In the lobby, when Neo is running while shooting 9mm machinepistols, but .223 casings are shown falling to the ground. - GunNut_33

• In the scene where neo is being shot in the apartment room at the end, there are 2 mistakes. One, when the first shot is fired, it shows a shell casing falling to the ground. It is a small pistol round, possibly a 9mm. The agent is shooting a Desert Eagle, which fires magnum cartriges, not small rounds like the 9mm. Next, after neo is shot the second time, it shows a top view of the gun ejecting the shell casing. BUT if you look closely, the gun doesn't eject an empty shell, it ejects a whole unspent bullet. - GunNut_33

• At the end when Neo is being shot in the hallway, look closely at the ceiling. Note that there is nothing hanging from the ceiling. Later, when Neo gets up, and starts fighting the agent, if you look at the ceiling then, you see a bunch of wires and crap hanging from the ceiling. Where the hell did they come from? - GunNut_33

• I'm not sure whether this is a real goof at all or not, but if u notice the helicopter shooting scene where Neo starts firing at all the agents like mad, not even one bullet hits Morpheus even though Neo does not really aim at anyone in particular. (VHS) - Kage

• Scene - Trinity flies the chopper - I'm really surprised no-one saw this. When trinity is flying the chopper, her trousers are a shiny tight fitted rubber, but at all other times (see when she bounces off the building) her trousers are a much shinier, creased PVC material. - gramps

• (Revealing mistakes) When Morpheus and Neo go to see the Oracle, there is a blind man sitting there (notice the cane). Morpheus acknowledges him by waving, the man nods back. I thought he was blind. (VHS) - nat
  • Everybody in that room has some kind of supernatural capabilities. Apparently, the blind man can sense things or maybe he isn't all that blind.

• (Continuity) When Neo and the agent are in the subway place, neo is thrown on the ground and you can see that there is blood from his mouth. He wipes the blood with his hand and then he does a type of karate move with the same hand but when u look at the hand, there is no blood on it. - Minitea25

• (Continuity) When Keanu Reeves (Neo) walks into his work building, there is a sign on the building the says Metavortex, or something like that. When Neo leaves the building the sign now says Metavortech. (Theatre) - Peter Naughton

Debated Goofs

• When Neo is in his cubicle at work, if u keep looking at the left side of the screen u will see that there is a hand in the office and a second later it is gone. - Disturbed
  • Comment: I have just watched the movie on TV, and yes there is a hand. This is not in the widescreen version. - jeff
  • Correction: In the scene with the FedEx driver, there is a hand resting on Neo's desk. It is only on the VHS version. (which by the way is the one HBO uses) the in the DVD version it is corrected, the shot is tighter. - BabelFish
  • Comment: I think some of you are forgetting the definition of a goof here: Something that happens which makes a movie seem unrealistic, or impossible to happen." (Or something like that.) So what there's a hand on the cubicle and then there's not? The guy obviously moved his hand. It's not as if people can't move their hands between scenes. Also, this applies to when people are wearing something, then not. And vice-versa. They just put it on or took it off. Duh! - Scott F.
    • Scott, you are talking about scenes, while the goof it self is about difference between shots. The time between shots are as short as when you blink your eye. A shot is just a change of camera angle. Nothing should be different from shot to shot. A scene, on the other hand, is a series of shots.
  • Correction: The debated "hand" goof in the fed-ex scene. The debate about moving the hand is pointless - the hand is in a place that couldn't possibly be reached - it is at the left edge of the desk - but in the next shot we see the left side of the desk has a filing cabinet next to it. (VHS) - gramps
  • Correction: In a further addition to the disputed hand when Neo receives his phone - the hand in the background has no shirt and a watch, whilst the delivery guy has a sleeve which runs right up to his hand. (VHS) - gramps

• When Cypher is talking to the agent in the restaurant eating steak, he is telling the agent to make him into Ronald Reagan. He says that he wants to be an actor, someone with power, and he does not want to remember anything...then the agent calls Cypher Mr. Reagan. - runs_with_scissors_@hotmail.com
  • Correction: When Cypher is talking to the agent and having his steak, the agent calls him Mr. Reagan because Reagan is Cypher's last name. - kelly
    • Comment: To Kelly's "correction" of Runs With Scissors' interesting theory about Reagan. I don't want to speak for Mr. Runs With Scissors, but I don't think he meant this one as a goof, just an interesting bit of trivia.
  • Comment: When agent Smith calls him "Mr. Reagan", He's calling him by his "Matrix Name", just like Neo's Is "Mr. Anderson". It's the name he grew up with when he was still in the matrix, before he was freed from the matrix. - mrknowitall420

• At the end of the movie, they use an electromagnetic pulse to destroy the squiddys. The squids, however, are inside of the ship, which couldn't happen because anything electrical inside of the ship would also be blown out. The EMP would only work on something that is outside of the ship, which would be shielded on the outside from EMP. - DannyMac
  • Correction: If you listen to what Tank and Morpheus are saying they are talking about how they must get Neo out BEFORE they set off the EMP. It would have the same effect as if they unplugged him (he would die) because the mind would be separated from the body. - Emjay
  • Correction: In the movie everything in the ship does get blown out, why else do u think that they have to wait for Neo to get out of the Matrix? So when they use the EMP, the pulse does not blow out Neo's connection and kill him. - RedDiablo
  • Comment: Earlier in the movie, when they set the EMP off, tank shuts down all of the electrical systems including the monitors that show the matrix. He does this so that when they set the EMP off they don't blow out the ship's computer. Later they decide to put up eith it they just are concerned with getting neo out... - vwstreetrodder

Commented Goofs

• In the beginning of the movie, when Trinity fights the police, Morpheus informs her she can't escape by using the phone in the room because "they cut the hard line". However, this is the same room that Tank directs Neo to at the end of the movie, so he can escape the Matrix. - Mike
  • Comment: If you listen to Tank, he tells Neo they have a "patch" on an old exit, which makes sense, considering that after the police do damage to a building, they don't just leave it, they will repair it. - DrEvil07

• When the FedEx guy comes to Neo, Neo is staring at a blank computer screen. (DVD) - Darren "IWSR" Ito
  • Comment: Of course he is staring at a blank computer screen...his computer the night before started talking to him! He was also weirded out by everything that had been happening to him...if I was Neo, I would've just sat and stared at a blank computer screen too! - AngelGDH

• If these agent blokes are strong enough to punch through solid concrete walls, why isn't Neo immediately killed when one smacks him in the chest? - Fibz
  • Comment: Well, you could theorize that something in the way Neo was "reborn" has made him strong enough to survive a punch from an Agent, or the fact that he is "The One" makes him that much stronger. Or, you could simply say that the movie just would not be very good if everyone was killed by one simple punch. - MovieBuff

• Trinity is chatting on the phone when The Matrix begins a trace on the phone call. The time of the trace is 13:24:18. Converting the time from Military would leave the time of the trace at 1:24:18 PM. Or 1:30 in the afternoon. When Agent Smith arrives at the scene, it is obviously taking place in the evening. Seems as though it took The Matrix a few hours to get a few agents on the scene. - Mica
  • Comment: Seems as though you "Mica" have copied this right off another website..word for word..I have just read it. Even though it is true. Maybe you should look for your own spoofs instead of copying them, or at least put it into your own words. - Alb123
    • Comment: Yes, I copied the goof from another web site. I just wanted readers of this site to know it too. I didn't knew that goofs have a copyright. And because I'm not very good at English, I just copied it. I promise that next time I will tell IF I copy something. - Mica
  • Comment: The military frequently uses "Zulu" time, the time at the Prime Meridian for a standard "base" time. For the US' east coast, this is 4-5 hours ahead depending on daylight savings time. So 1430 Eastern would be 1930 Zulu. Maybe the computer was using Zulu time. - Otto

• When Neo is operating the gun on the helicopter the agents miss every single shot they fire at him. He was like five feet away! Then agent Smith hits Morpheus' leg through a wall and fires two shots and hits the helicopter gas tank which was at least fifty feet away! - Deftones
  • Comment: The agents are being shot at from a helicopter gun, so the chance of them being able to aim and fire accurately is impossible, any way if they shot Neo the movie would be finished, causing the movie to suck. This is not a goof. Simply the story line. - Jersey Slut
  • Comment: Have you ever seen Star Wars? Bad guys for some odd reason seem to have a pretty bad aim even at the closest distance. But still the helicopter gun would do a good job of keeping someone from having the time to aim. - Ruby

• Cypher goes into the matrix to talk to the agent (when they are eating steak) but this is impossible b/c in order 2 do this he must have an operator. I would say he had an accomplice (which would make an interesting twist in the next movie) but his only two possible accomplices are Tank and Dozer, and he shoots both of them. So he could not have first of all entered the matrix, and second of all he could not have left it. -- Also, is it just me or does that little Indian kid (the spoon kid) have a British accent? - josh the red
  • Comment: If he is Indian and has a British accent. There might be a perfect explanation. His parents moved to England and he was born there then moved to America. - doggeroo
  • Comment: The supposed Indian kid who has a British accent is very well possible, considering that if I remember my history correctly, India was once a colony of Britain like many other countries that exist today. - jus a reader

• When Neo and Trinity are on the roof, Trinity calls tank for a helicopter program. The one that pops up on tanks screen is a bell ranger but the one they fly off in is a huey. - skippy
  • Comment: One thing skippy, why would they go through the trouble of getting 2 helicopters for the movie set? Someone had a good allowance. (VHS) - evil-snoman

• The agents and Neo can't run all that fast even though they can dodge bullets. - Donga
  • Comment: I can't speak for the agents, but Neo only discovers his superhuman ability at the end of the movie. After this point you will notice the immense speed at which he runs back to the telephone in order to exit the Matrix. - El Loco

Corrected Goofs

• When Morpheus, Neo, Trinity, Apoc, and switch hide in the wall they are below the hole made in the wall. When Morpheus breaks through the wall to attack the agent he comes out above the hole. - whitney
  • Correction: Yes, Mr. Fishburn comes out above the hole, cause they have climbed down to a different floor, they are not in the same room where they went in. You know that because the police officer goes into a bathroom with no hole. - sprintr
    • Correction: The thing about the going to a lower floor is correct. But, when the officer first comes in, you can see it quite clearly, a large hole in the wall. (Or I'm mistaken) And he isn't even suspicious. He goes in to investigate, hears Cypher sneeze, and the scene goes on. - Alli
• In the scene where Trinity points a gun at the temple of the agent's head and says "Dodge this." the gun is pointed at the side of the head, but in the next shot when she pulls the trigger she is aiming straight at his forehead. - MacX
  • Correction: The reason why the Agent gets shot in the forehead by Trinity is because she says "Dodge this." and attracts his attention, then turns his head to look at her. I mean, its pretty obvious. =/ - Scott F.
    • Correction: When Trinity tells the agent to "dodge this" he does not turn his head, but actually just looks toward Trinity, so it is a goof that it shows the cop/agent with a bullet hole in his forhead. - Alb123

• While fleeing the agents after the subway fight with Smith, Neo grabs some civilian's cell phone and makes a call to Tank in the "Real World". This shouldn't be at all possible; the whole point of the "hard line" entry/exits into and out of the Matrix is made obsolete by this glitch. The guy whose cell phone is stolen is just a piece of Matrix software, ergo so is his phone. It has no connection whatsoever to the Real World and therefore Neo shouldn't have been able to "dial out" to Tank on it. And YES, I know Morpheus and Co. use cell phones in the Matrix to communicate with Tank BUT those are cell phone "programs" they would have had to have written themselves -- Matrix hacks specific to their Matrix bodies. Why would the machines write cell phone programs inside the Matrix that could possibly dial out to the Real World? - susurran
  • Correction: Cell phones are a communication point, but cannot get them out. Having a number to call is like having a backdoor password in a program. It doesn't mean they can leave through it, which requires the hard line. However, some innocuous form of "walkie-talkie" is needed to the "real/outside" world. - sinistral

Explained Goofs

• Earlier in the movie Morpheus explains to Neo that anyone within the matrix can instantaneously become an agent if they should take some sort of active notice of you. Yet the Oracle is always in the matrix and it would seem that she too would be subject to these rules and kill off the saviors of this virtual universe. Perhaps she also possesses the power to "bend" the matrix laws, but this seems like a little more breaking the rules. - Rich
  • Explanation: There are other ships in the "real" world that we could safely assume have the same capabilities of sending and extracting people from the Matrix. So perhaps the Oracle does not exist full time in the Matrix but rather enters and exits as Neo and the others do when it is necessary. Within the Matrix would be the only place these "special people" in the Oracle's apartment could test their abilities to "bend" or "break" Matrix rules. But that doesn't mean they have to exist there all the time. - Aozora

• Am I the only one who noticed that everyone is wearing clothes when they're not in The Matrix? How did they get the clothes they're wearing? - Sub-Zero
  • Explanation: The reason that they have clothes is that there is a city in the center of the earth where it is still warm, where Tank and his brother were born. Where do you think they got their supplies along with food. They got there clothes from there too...you think? - orange jello

• At the end, when agent Smith unloads on Neo, and he hits the wall, there are several bullet holes in his shirt. After Neo reappears from inside agent Smith, the bullet holes have magically disappeared. - manix
  • Explanation: Well, he is the One (or is he?), so he just healed himself and got back up. - Jam-Jam

• When Tank is preparing to hack into the matrix so Neo can go see the Oracle, he say to observe the no smoking sign, fasten seat belts, etc... He has never seen a stewardess because they didn't exist during his lifetime (or even centuries before) and he has never been inside the matrix (he has no wires etc.) (DVD) - dave
  • Explanation: Tank can see the matrix through the screen with the green numbers falling down, just like cypher can, therefore he would be able to see a plane and what the stewardess says. - (VHS) birdie
