Typical Middle Movie

Rating: 5/10 (29 May 2003)

You can tell this is the middle film of a trilogy. The special effects can be fun, but the movie presents way too much information too quickly, and can be a little
hard to follow. The Zion scenes are rediculous, and really take away from the films feel.
This movie might turn out to be better once the series is concluded. In this one, they had to move the story along, establish a plot, set up for the next film, and explain things from the first one, it falls a little short on each of these. Morpheus (Fishburn) is a bit long winded, and speaks way too much elementary
philosophy. And if he said the word "believe" one more time, I was going to
walk out of the theater. Loved the first movie, wish it would have just been left alone.
