If you have not seen Matrix: Reloaded, don’t read this. Boring. Yawn. Special effects were great, but not as awe inspiring as the original.
The fight scenes had little purpose. I don’t even like the original from a story line perspective. I mean, come on, the agents can pop into a truck at any point in time, why not pop into every car on the freeway and block it all off? Oh wait, this is the matrix, Neo can fly, so why spend 10 mins killing 1000 smiths? Oh yeah, we need to make a movie.
Too bad – It could have been much more enjoyable. I’ll still go see the finale, to have closure on the series, but I don’t expect much.
After all, this is the sixth matrix. Lather, rise, repeat.
I am just happy that Neo did not end up under a bus. I’d have walked at that point.
Good thing Sandra Bullock didn’t do a cameo!
What gets me is how heavily hyped Matrix is compared to Xmen.
As for me, I’m waiting for December 17 when Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King debuts.
Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers hits DVD in August and November (extended edition).

The Smith scene was booooring. I do think the second half of the movie (like, around the highway scene on) was really good though. The first half could have been made by Jet Li. Actually, strike that… if it was made by Jet Li the action scenes would at least be GOOD.
