A very good sequel

Rating: 8/10 (1 June 2003)

Although the matrix reloaded has great action, great graphics ,a fairly good story outline and brilliant cinematography it lacks the major reason for the popularity of the first one. The reason the first one was so popular was because of the weirdum and the fact that it made you think about life, this sequel holds none of this "weirdum" and therefore brings it down alot. The action is great, it holds most of the action bits for a good time of that being fairly long. Also the sex scene and big club thing made no point and made the film more uncivilized and showed that the human race survivors are idiots (wouldn't they all run off and get ready for the war?) The graphics are like triple as good as the first one, (that involves those slow moving camera shots). The car chase also is a great and proberly one of the best we will ever see in Movie history for a long time to come, however in my point of view the final climax car chase in Mad Max 2:The Road Warrior is the best car chase ever made. Overall this film is a very good sequel, almost better than the original but because of its lack of meaning and power an focusing on action i say that it's worth watching and 8 1/2 outa 10, 'The Matrix' being 9 outa 10.
