The problem, of course, is choice

Rating: Null/10 (30 July 2003)

The problem, of course, is choice, a choice to see this convoluted sequel to the great original. As if predestined, I was left with the question of "why", because I had already made a choice to watch this movie.
After watching this movie, I was left with more choice. Do I choose to watch it again because I had no idea what the hell NEO and the Architect was talking about? Again, I had already made the choice, but I was left with the question of "why" do I want to watch this increasingly befuddling piece of philosophical movie with dialect straight out of 18th century philosophical text.
During the second viewing, I was left with an another choice. Do I walk out of the movie theater door or do I fall asleep? Will Zion NOT be destroyed if I fell asleep? This time, I went against my predestined choices, and watched the movie to the end against my destiny. Fate, as I would have it, is not always predetermined. Unfortunately, I had to again watch the horrible scene between NEO and the architect. And again, I had no idea what the hell they were talking about.
But this did not stop myself from asking "why"? Why did I spend total of $19.50 to watch it twice? Will watching it third time answer the question "why"? So, as if predetermined, I watched it again. This time in iMax nonetheless. Then it struck me, I then understood "Why". I watched the movie for 3rd time because that's how many times it took me to understand what the hell NEO and the Architect was talking about. Then I had an epiphany, the movie had predestined viewers like me to watch it at least twice because they purposely made all dialect and plots impossibly difficult to understand with one viewing.
