Here's the deal.

Rating: Null/10 (26 May 2003)

Matrix Reloaded, as has been so thoroughly established, is not a perfect movie. There's a raunchy rave/sex scene at the beginning, so you might not want to check out the movie with grandma; but your little brother might find it stimulating.
There's a whole aceload of bad dialogue, and that Morpheus "speech" was just f'ing odd, to say the least. But never mind that, and yes I've begun the sentence with a conjuction. So sue me, you fairy queens.
The Burly Brawl -AKA- "big fight with all the mean men in suits" ran a little too long in my very humble opinion. It was enjoyable, nevertheless.
Merovingian -AKA- "that French dude that said 'It's like wiping your _ahhs_with silk!" is pure comedy. Clearly he will play a large role in the next movie. People are still speculating about who the hell he is. People are speculating the hell out of this movie, period, and that's how it should be.
Persephone was hot; um, that's about it. She just didn't do that much. What is more intriguing about her is her possible connection with the Architech. We'll be seeing more of her jugs--her, more of her.
Hmm, more problems... Let's see...Wait, mofo, I'm thinking.

Oh, very funny.
Some f***wits like to rag on the causality/philosophical discussions, often coining such words as "convoluted," "psudo," "trite" (which I at least can accept) and oh, how I love that little homosexual word "muddled." Do not listen to them. I speak objectively, good human. The scene with Neo and the Architech is probably the best in the movie. The Causality one

Speaking of bests, here's one of the worst. It's gotta go to that precious council meeting in Zion. You know, the one with that Lock guy and those officials batting hot, smelly platitudes back and forth like poopy tennis balls? Bad simile, I know. And how about the oblicatory crowd of peasants, or whatever the hell they were. I do not know the guy that played Lock, and I do not know anything of his prior credentials, but I think it's safe enough to say he sucks mightily. I'm a huge fan of the movies, but that whole scene just lame.
Blah, blah. Twins were cool, didn't get enough screen time.
Seraph - (See above to a lesser extent) Fight with Merovingians goons was kinda overkill and went on too long.

Excellent movie, and should not be compared with Lord of the Rings or Star Wars by any means. Star Wars and LotR are not science fiction; they are fantasy. Robots and aliens do not a science fiction movie make. Yes, they are all successful trilogies. Undoubtedly, they are even similarities between the movies, oh my! Still, there need not be rivalries or cliques, you moronic fanboys. You people are tainting forums all over the net with your incessant "which is better than which?" topics. Please stop. For the love of Bruce Almighty, please.
Oh, yeah, and some people's clits are chafing over the ending, but don't worry, it's fine. Movies don't always have end neatly with a pretty little tune, you anal librarians.
8/10 overall. It's not as good as the first movie, no. The first was more coherent and the atmosphere was darker and more evocative. Still,
it's a great movie and I expect a shocking conclusion. That also goes for "Return of the King" (Not shocking; I read the books, but it'll be fun anyway) and whatever George Lucas finally poops out.
Non-objective rant If you felt the movie was intellectually dry, I'm afraid you're an idiot. If you felt the dialogue was stiff, go get yourself a cookie, you sexy thang. If you found that you were disappointed because you let the television pump your weiner so full of hype that by the time you saw the movie, there was nowhere for it to go but down, get off the f'ing bandwagon and go watch A Beautiful Mind or Charlie's Angels, you stupid goatherder./Non-objective rant
