Plato “ The Allegory of the cave “can be related to the movie “the Matrix in several ways. The matrix was a 1999 film that was about a guy name Neo” a computer hacker who learned about the unexplained rebels of his reality and the world of the matrix. His job was to enhance the utopia world and destroys dystopia that was controlled by it. Morpheus toke Neo into the utopia world and because this was his first time being there he had a lot of questions; everything was new and weird for him. In this white room of another world where everything is being controlled and Morpheus telling him that he is the one to free everyone from it. It was a lot to handle all at once. To take in all at one time he waked up right away and got sick because he had never seen such thing.
In allegory of the cave there was a room of prison that was captured in this cave since there childhood. One of the prisons was able to escape from the cave to see the light of the real world. At first the light was a pain to his eyes, which would cause him to turn away and refuse to leave the cave. He wasn’t used to the reality and the things he was just seeing for the first time. He couldn’t believe that there was such a world. All his childhood he and the rest of the prison thought it was just shadows which he formerly saw were truer than the object that were just shown to him. Socrates believed that he would grow accustomed to the sight of the upper world.

Your ideas are great but you should always indent in every paragraph you write. I couldn't find your thesis, however you went straight to explaining the movie in the first intro which could lead to a short essay.It seems like you grasped the main idea of the Allegor of The Cave. If you would've finished your essay I'm sure it would have been a great one.
