Summary: I DONT KNOW WHAT YOU OTHER PEOPLE ARE THINKING!
Review: Ive got to take up for the Wachowski brothers. This movie was not only great but surpassed the orginal. The special effects were amazing and you actually get to see what life would be like, if you lived outside "The Matrix." They did a great job extending the story line into part two from the orginal and it will probably be even better in the last movie. If you did not find this movie to be a master-piece then you obviously have no artistic conseption.

Summary: The Matrix Definately Reloaded...
Review: I am docking one star for this, I'm suprised myself, but for two good reasons. Overall the movie was good, the philosophy blew my mind when I saw it, can't wait to get the DVD to understand abit more of it. As for the plot and such,well here are my two cents about that...First of all the movie overall has a different feel to me, I walked out of it feeling utterly strange, it's long for one, but there have been a few things that changed. It doesn't feel quite like the same to me, but no sequel DOES feel the same does it? It's based four years or so after The Matrix, After Neo joined with Morpheus and Trinity, and now the real fight is starting to heat up with the machines. We learn much more about Zion and about the Matrix world as a whole, it isn't just focused on Neo or The One anymore, now it's showing a slightly bigger challenge, a bigger picture of the way things are outside of the matrix and in. Second of all, as for plot and scenes go, ONE scene made me say "Oh my goodness..." My friends and I were wanting it to end but instead it went on for ten minutes or so, I was just sitting there in shock. I never thought I'd see a scene such as the 'rave' scene as I call it, with Neo and Trinity getting down right there in The Matrix, I expected if anything happened it would be a bit more tasteful than this. There have been other movies with far shorter scenes than that. This is the main reason I've docked a star. To me, this hasn't any place in the Matrix, if you ask me it was just a cheap shot scene to get people to watch the movie abit more. If this scene had been more tasteful, much shorter and less... strange... I would have given this a full rating. Overall this was a great movie, in terms of plot and scene it could have had a bit better, I hope the third does not disappoint me any more than these slight problems did. Movies do NOT need something dealing with sexual acts EVERY time it's a rated R movie people! This has just proven my theory that most R rated films today do have SOME sexual interaction in them, but this was too much for this genre of film and the subject of the film. If you are a fan of The Matrix saga it's great, if you aren't that big of a fan perhaps rent it first. All for now...

Summary: A very entertaining movie
Review: Well, it is difficult to keep the mistery in the second one when you try to set the stage on the first one. The directors said that. The second one will be all about action and might be disappointed for some of the audience. The problem people ahs some time is not to wait until seeing the third one. A trilogy is good or bad on its whole. If you just think that the Matrix reloaded is one movie, you have to realize that this cannot be. The directors at first wanted to release one movie out of three but the producers said that a 8-hour movie is not acceptable. The "chemistry" thing is also an easy critics, I think. The matrix is not about emotions, it is about reading abook that is open for you. Who cares about the love story between Reeves and Moss. The point is that they are in love and that is important for the movie but seeing them having sex is really not my cup of tea, I would rather watch other movies for that. As French, I apreciate how the audience react when the guy swore in French.... This is pretty funny. I overall enjoyed the movie and enjoy all movies that are a little bit whaco anyway. Matrix for me is so far a success and can't wait for the third one.

Summary: Excellent Movie - You're nuts if you think otherwise
Review: The first Matrix was excellent because it was most people's first introduction to wire fighting, it was the first movie to use "bullet time" (a term coined by the Matrix's special effects guru) and it has a huge plot twist in the middle of the movie. None of these things are novel anymore. Since the first Matrix, a thousand movies have used wire fighting and bullet time. I think it's not the content of the movie but the lack of another paradigm shift that has people disappointed in this movie.

Summary: Worst Movie EVER!!!
Review: This movie was a drawn out, overhyped, tooth pulling experience. The fights lasted forever. The jibberrice spoken was boring and repetative. First movie I ever walked out of. I enjoyed pranking my friends on their phones over watching this bore of a movie.Killed my plans of buying the box set.

Summary: sequel satisfaction
Review: I am surprised how much negative publicity this has gotten. To me it was the best movie of the summer. It might have left the audience wanting more or asking questions but that's what it was supposed to do. The actions scenes were absolutely fantastic although the fight scene with Agent Smith did continue for just a tad too long. However with that said I came away awe-struck. The chase scene had my heart pounding every step of the way. I love action movies and this far surpassed my expectations unlike Tomb Raider 2 which was a waste of an afternoon. I can't wait for the finale...

Summary: Matrix-Beyond
Review: This movie is not given the credit it deserves. Yes maybe there are problems with the plotlines and some of the character development isn't that good, but overall I think this movie is an amazing visual experience. I think the Wachowski Brothers propelled action and visual effects to a new level. The directors were not afraid to push boundaries even if it alienated audiences, which is something I respect. I also loved the symbolic references to comicbooks and anime. Even if people were not happy with the movie they should still respect the amount of work that went into it, because all of the action scenes and visual effects put into the movie required alot of elaborate and technical work to pull off.

Summary: BETTER THAN THE FIRST
Review: The Matrix Reloaded is an amazing triumph. With a complex, twisting plot, and more symbolism then 1,000 ancient chinese proverbs, the Matrix Reloaded meets and exceeds expectations. The Wichowski (spelling?) brothers succeed in broadining the Matrix universe, explianing certain things that were unclear (or even unthought of) in the first film, and twisting other aspects in intense, symbolic, and at times confusing ways. This is a movie you have to watch twice. It is so deep!! I never thought this movie would reach the brilliance and freshness of the first, but it did. It reached and exceeded the first film. Buy this movie, watch it, think about it for about 4 days, and then watch it again!

Summary: All you naysayers.....
Review: First off, let's get this out of the way: The Matrix Reloaded is only half of one HUGE movie. Keep that in mind when you watch it, because it doesn't end...it just stops. As for people saying that the story is pure gibberish, you might want to watch this movie a few more times...it is truly an incredible script (of the first half of a movie). It makes many many multiple connections with itself and the first movie, that ultimately weave an intricate web of storytelling. As for the effects, go back and watch "The Matrix" and then try to tell me that it's effects are better than Reloaded's....

Summary: The best new trilogy out there
Review: This has to be one of the best new trilogys out there, right up at the top with the LotR series. There is a word of caution that goes with this movie though. This movie is the sequel to the matrix, in the matirx most people got distracted by the action and forgot the VERY philosophical plot. Most people went to go see this movie for the action, it is not a action movie; its a creative "thinker" movie with some cool action effects. The just of the movie is trying to explain "the world isn't real" theory from the first movie. Alot of people didn't like this, because they are action simpletons, who don't give a crap about philosophy which is most likely why alot of people thought this movie was bad. People just couldn't take that one part that lasted less than 5 minutes, you know the one part in the white room, where your supposed to listen and try and figure out what that one guy is trying to say. Then there are those people out there that said, "he's just like superman flying around" hmm where did you get that idea, heres a clu; "THEY SAID THAT IN THE MOVIE!" duh. And to you people saying the special effects aren't that ground breaking, let me see you do 1 million agent smiths at once, with the exact same face on. Don't see this movie unless, you have a slightly philosophical side. If you don't even think about the world around you at least once in your daily life, then you'll probably not understand this movie.
