A good feast for intelligent minds...

I can´t believe that all of you are talking about the same movie, are you sure you all saw the matrix reloaded with Keanu Reeves and Lawrence Fishbourne? and the great great Hugo Weaving of course. Are you sure you understood the message here, or are you really part of the 99% who just think you can chose?
I have been thinking, since I already have seen the movie three times now...What might it be that make all the mob to hate it? I finally came with an answer...all of them are part of a lesser mind, the kind needed to be controlled by a system, the same they need to be happy with such pieces of trash like X-men2. The main reason most people don´t like this excellent mind-bending, actions packed, adrenaline filled roller coaster is because...they do not understand it. And rather than accept it is far out of their league to get it, they chose to repel it. Shame on all of you.
More than a review, this sounds like a manifesto against all the bad rep this movie is getting. But I believe it is a movie worth watching. It has nothing to do with hype and high expectations, it has more to do in how people do not fulfill the expectation of the movie towards them, but fear not...In time, this one will become the biggest cult sequel ever. Well, hoping minds are not lesser than these days.
The so called "poor plot" is excellent, with an extreme finesse that it really becomes fragile and strong at the same time. The action sequences are top notch, and anyone complaining about the "fake and obvious CGI"...let me tell you...Unless you are able to find, not just people who look alike..but people looking exactly the same as Hugo Weaving, train them to jump in the sky and make it look real, go ahead, be my guest, otherwise just zip it. The car chase scene became instantly in one of my all time favorite action scenes ever!!!
All in all, an excellent movie that really deserves a better rep than it has, but don´t worry we are living now in the sixth version, maybe the next one will be filled with more people who like to think once in a while...to all of you, just rest, lay down, and go on with your life enjoying "really" empty stuff like your so beloved X-men2. Au revoir
