Saw it last night. Sold out on 4 screens all night.

I liked it a lot. As a middle part of a trilogy it was much mor satisfying than the Lord of the Rings' second movie.

The soundtrack was awesome too.

There's sneak preview of the third film at the end of the credits.

I watched it for the straight action the 1st time, the next viewing I will look for the clues and Easter Eggs in the background

I thought it sucked. Maybe that's cuz I loved the first one so much.

I can handle the notion that they wanted to bring the philoso-religious angle into sharper focus. Fine. But I won't sit still for ultra-long stretches of psycho-babble.

The movie was full of it.

Maybe I will see it after the X-files black shades black spaghetti western dustercoats tire of wandering the streets in a couple of weeks, or the DVD comes out.

Watch the TV screens in the background when Keanu is making out with the Italian chick.

Great post!

What would anyone do if they didn't get this bit of news?

Awaiting the sequel to the sequel "Matrix Gets Loaded".

Not sure what you mean? Are you saying it gives a clue about the movie?

Saw it last night. I think that the special effects and fight sequences are great! The scenes with the disco and the sex were totally unnecessary as was the language. Toward the end though I actually nodded off for about 10 minutes. The first was much better.
