The Matrix conveys beliefs that both philosophers‚ Plato and Descartes have in the idea of reality‚ through a computer generated “reality.” Plato and Descartes convey their ideas of reality in two diverse ways in their work. Descartes believes that our senses such as smelling‚ touching‚ tasting‚ hearing‚ and seeing should be questioned.

The things that are most clear in The Matrix that relate back to the Allegory of the cave are‚ the forms‚ the blinding soon‚ the escaped prisoner‚ the fire‚ and the idea that the prisoners were living under a blank of lies. The connection between Plato’s work and the work of The Matrix is too strong for it to be unintentional. In Plato’s ideas of the Allegory of
