Making Film History-Again!

Rating: 9/10 (15 May 2003)

First of all, I am a HUGE Matrix fan! Although many people complained about this film not being as "fresh" as the first, I disagree. When we first saw The Matrix, we were being introduced into something totally new, and now we know that the Matrix exists so obviously there won't be something totally shocking in the second film like finding out that the world we thought was "real" was actually a computer program. So I think a lot of people went into the second one with a "twist" expectation. However, the action in this film is just plain amazing! The big brawl with Neo and Agent Smith was with lack of a better phrase, stunning!The car chase in the film was also one of the best chases in a long while. A few critics complained that the bullet-time was getting old in this film, but although they might have a point I still think that no one can do it like the Wachowski Bros. and no matter who else decides to do it in their films, The Matrix is where it all started. Fans will be pleased with the amazing computer and special effects in Reloaded, and even better action and fighting sequences. Way-to-go Wachowski Bros. for raising the bar in Action Films! 9/10
