Post Matrix: Reloaded Review

The cinema lights dim, the instantly recognisable Warner Brothers logo then lots of green numbers and letters whizzing up and down a black screen… hmmm I’ve seen this before. Wait! What’s this? Reloaded? Woohoo!

Okay so everyone on the planet has seen the Matrix, we all know how bullet time works and computers do all the hard work so we don’t have to. Well given the extent of the fight scenes in Reloaded I’d say hats off to all the computers that did months of wire work and fight training for this one. And no this is not a comment at the acting ability of our Mr Reeve, honest. The opening scene with Trinity fighting an Agent or later with Neo and his antics with Mr Smith in the school yard sticks out as two of those jaw dropping moments where you struggle to see the joins and will happily suspend your disbelief just to enjoy what are two fantastic set pieces in the film.

I'd love it if it turns out Neo actually IS the One and Zion isn't just a part of the Matrix, it's too bland. If he actually breaks the system and becomes this superhero character I'd be glad, provides more entertainment really.
He will be..*nod*. Can't wait for Revolutions.

ok, this is gonna sound really stupid, but dont you think Neo turning into someone with superpowers is kind of stretching the credibilty a bit? i know that the whole matrix story stretches the credibilty a wee bit, but this new twist kinda goes to far.

Yeah, but what I mean is, IF Zion is another part of the matrix, why would Neo go into a coma after using his powers? Should he not just be able to use them as he would normally? Or, is the "something different" to do with HIM, and not Zion, if you catch my drift.

Oh I dunno I'm giving up. November, please.

Cool Re: Matrix [Reloaded]

My favorite scene has to be the highway chase scene involving a Cadillac CTS and a Cadillac Escalade EXT.
