Topic > Comparison of Platonism in "The Matrix" and "The Cave"

Neo's closing comments at the end of the film are the conversation with the source. He said, “I know you're out there. I can hear you now... I'll show them a world without you. A world without rules, controls, borders and borders. A world where everything is possible." He is implying that man in the real world without the machine can do things without the limitations of the Matrix, as they will no longer be trapped in the illusion. This may be related to the Socratic search for wisdom. Socrates believed that wisdom had no limits and boundaries; he didn't think he was the wisest man because wisdom has no ends. Socrates was not afraid to change and tried to accept other ideas, that's why he kept asking questions to find out the truth, he was never satisfied with the answer, so he can get closer and closer to wisdom and truth, but there is never a end. Like the world without the Matrix, humanity would be liberated from body to soul; humanity's capacity is also without limitations and boundaries
