Good, but not Matrix good

Rating: 6/10 (18 May 2003)

** MILD SPOILERS **
Reloaded is good, don't get me wrong. But this movie is marred by too much action, too much emphasis on special effects and a scene involving a giant orgy that had nothing whatsoever to do with the plot. (Though it could be argued it was to contrast the humans with the machines.) It's also filled with religious imagry in an unneccesary way....and lacks the intriguing plot of Matrix. See it... but don't work your hopes up.
