fantastic, yet lacking

Rating: 10/10 (22 May 2003)

I like many other rabid fans, have been waiting for this movie for a long long long time, I even got my tickets a week before the movie came out, I can clearly say I got my money's worth, and I'd see it again any time if I don't directly have to pay. I loved the effects, they were incredible, just wow. The plot however was somewhat missing, but I have serious hopes that the third movie will make up for that. The rave scene was totally unnecessary; we did not need to see Keanu Reeves' ass. The whole scene had nothing to do with the movie. The action was of course superb. Keanu once again showed little emotion, and trinity didn't look nearly as good this time as in the first movie, she slightly looked like an old lady. Overall the movie succeeded in its original purpose. mad special effects, and I like it mostly for that, but it fail in plot and characters. 7/10
