Mostly lifeless with some bursts of great action

Rating: 1/10 (1 June 2003)

Boring!!!
I liked the Matrix; the sequel is a big disappointment. There are perhaps 3-4 scenes that were worth watching. The yard scene of Neo's fight with the clones is fantastic. Some martial arts sequences stand out as well. IMHO, the freeway scene is way too long and overrated.
The rest of the movie is awful. There is stilted love making scene that is painful to watch. Also, a long rave scene that looks as if it is out of a c-grade MTV video. And interminable amounts of psyhco babble - no one talks straight and no one talks lucid. If I want philosophy, I will pick up Kant and Spinoza. No dumbed down pop nonsense for me, thank you.
