BTW...Reloaded is not Matrix. I didn't care for it. The fight scenes were so long, I thought I was watching a music video. It was weird. There's a Zion orgy scene that kind of turned me off too. That's not Matrix. It was just weird.
Did I mention it was weird?
What I don't understand is why so many reviews have been ambiguous about the movie. They give back-handed compliments like "Matrix fans will find everything they want", or "Too much dialog but the effects were awesome..."
Flat out, Matrix reloaded sucked so bad that if I hadn't been in the middle of aisle I would have bolted. The Burly Brawl was as pointless as it comes. Once Neo knows that Agent Smith can replicate as much as he wants, what does Neo do? He sticks around and tries to fight it out! And then he finally abandons the fight by flying away - WTF? Why did he stick around so long?
In the first movie all Agents were treated with great respect. Didn't they say that nobody had ever escaped from an agent alive before Neo did? In reloaded the agents are treated as mere annoying gnats that are setup for more wire-work kung fu.
And what dialog! "You do not truly know someone until you fight them." What a clunker.
MR is just a very long, very trite advertisement for the video game. There is no philosophical depth - that is complete BS. The movie is clearly aimed at the 11-14 year old male, white demographic. If you don't fit that demographic it is a compete waste of money.
