The Wachowskis, who made "The Matrix" series, "V for Vendetta," and the regrettable "Speed Racer," have a new movie coming out this October, and it looks to be either sweeping and mind-blowingly ambitious, or batsh*t crazy. You decide.

The film, which takes place over several different generations, stars Tom Hanks (who sports terrible facial hair at one point), Halle Berry, and Agent Smith Hugo Weaving. The synopsis:

An epic story of humankind in which the actions and consequences of our lives impact one another throughout the past, present and future as one soul is shaped from a murderer into a savior and a single act of kindness ripples out for centuries to inspire a revolution."

Sounds a bit like it'll be a sci-fi take on karma and reincarnation, both of which heavily impacted the themes of "The Matrix." Will the movie stack up to that first film, though? Or will it be more "Matrix Revolutions?"
