Seen it, you will have a good time-just go to the bathroom during Cornell West's council scene (lol)

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

Did you see the original? If not, I dont know how you could possibly understand Matrix Reloaded.

I watched the film yesterday. Though I was impressed with (late coming) action scenes, I was thoroughly dissapointed with the storyline. Morpheus was the biggest let down. His development was essential to the success of the first film and the lack of any development for Morpheus (other than an auxillary participant in one chase scene) parallels the flat storyline.

The first film was powerful with its thought provoking and meaningful concepts, and relied on irony and exagerrated consequences for humor. The first film was so much more powerful because it veered from the stereotypical hollywood interjections of gratuitous sex/romance and lame sarcasm for humor. Not so with the second. 85% of the storyline was a rewrite of superman3 with a smattering of MuppetMovie5 bad guy complete with contrived accents and adolescent french sarcastic humor.

Show up an hour late into the film and you've only missed what's disappointed most.

I took my 7th grade son to see it today. I still don't get it. Neither Matrix movie makes sense to me.
