Movie: The Matrix
Basic Plot: Machines rule the earth and have enslaved all (but a small group of) humans who they lead to believe live in what we know today as earth, when in fact they are just plugged into a computer.
I'm Okay With: The fact that the surviving humans are able to survive on little to no food with nutritional value and no sunlight. The fact that the same humans have the technology to make aircraft and advanced weaponry despite living in an underground shit hole. The fact that the machines have figured out how to harvest humans, build cities, create new machines, but can't seem to find the last remaining city of non-enslaved humans. The fact that Keanu Reeves is actually believable in this role. The whole concept of entering into the Matrix.
I'm Not Okay With: The machines have been able to build cities for themselves and create an entire social structure of their own. They have the ability to write a program where they have their enslaved humans believe they are living which shows a high level of intelligence. So why does the code they wrote for their "agents" - the guys who govern inside the Matrix - allow them to die? Yes, I know that the "agents" are faster then the humans inside the Matrix and can jump into another human if they are about to die, but why allow them to die in the first place? Couldn't they just have made them invincible? Wouldn't it have been easier if "agents" could just charge straight at a fully armed Neo without having to worry about bullets harming them? Seriously? I am not okay with this.
