A Complete Waste of Time

Rating: 2/10 (10 July 2006)

Awfully dull and painfully exhausting, PC2 easily tops Superman and mutants as the most disappointing movie of the summer. So many plots are too long for no reason that they become meaningless. The only notable character, Jack, goes from funny in the beginning to boring at the end. The only credit I would give is the special effects. They are magnificent indeed, but they don't save this story from misery. Not at all. All the chasing, explosion, fights, are for only one reason: another sequel. I really have no idea a successful filmmaker can be this irresponsible. Consider this: watching this film, having in mind that they are shooting two sequels at the same time; sounds familiar? Exactly, the matrix sequels. And what happened? The masterpiece first movie goes from a bad second to a worse third. I mean, if they can't make a better sequel, why don't they just leave it alone? Infuriating!!!
