The
Matrix possesses many archetypes that can be analyzed. One of
these archetypes is the hero. Neo is an example of the heroic archetype, the anomaly
who is outside of his social order, yet is also the only person capabale of saving it.
The heroic journey is also present. The archetypal journey in which the hero must
strive to fully understand their capacity as a hero and whether or not they are "the
one" is something that is developed in great detail in the film. Neo spends much of the
film continually wondering if he is "the one" and how he will be able to be "the one."
The archetype of an advisor or counseling figure for the hero is embodied in the role of
Morpheus, who never wavers in his belief that Neo is "the one."
