It's been 21 years since "The Matrix" first hit theaters.

The dystopian film, written and directed by sisters Lana Wachowski and Lilly Wachowski, breathed fresh life into film's sci-fi genre — introducing an entirely new type of fast-paced fight scene layered in addition to the iconic "bullet time" effect.
