Too long, too overdone

Rating: 6/10 (19 May 2003)

There is nothing new in the Matrix Reloaded. In fact, the movie isn't nearly as good as the original. The characters have become flat. Trinity, for some reason, looks very haggard. Morpheus has become monochromatic. The fight scenes become ridiculous. I went with a large group of people and everyone was sighing, waiting for the scenes to end.
Also, there is a significantly sexual scene in the movie, something which the original Matrix pleasantly left out of its repertoire.
I would recommend seeing this movie but with low expectations. I gave it a 6.
