Huh?

Rating: 6/10 (22 May 2003)

Of course The Matrix Reloaded looks great--given the time and expense how could it not? But I was not that involved in the film, even as much as I was for X Men 2. The "rules" for operating in The Matrix are unclear--why can Neo fly very, very fast but not simply teleport? Why is no one surprised that he can stop bullets in mid-air? Maybe there are explanations, but it's not worth it. The actors are all good, especially Carrie Anne Moss, but Fishburne is just doing a one-note performance and Jada Pinckett Smith is underused. Interesting, fun to watch, but hardly memorable.
