The inner values of The Matrix Reloaded

Rating: 10/10 (22 May 2004)

The Matrix Reloaded is a film full of social, philosophical, religious and developmental allusions and the main criticism is that those allusions are superficial, cheap and incoherent, while most critics agree that it's a fantastic action movie.
I'll report an example of an allegedly superficial philosophical line; it's quite famous: "There's no escaping reason, no denying purpose."
As for me, this is simply brilliant, i.e. concisely put. I'll elaborate this a little, just out of itself. If "I" am a "state" of "energy-matter" that is "caused" by a "reason" there is indeed no way "I" could "be" without a "reason". And if the "form" of "myself" is "defined" through its "interactions" with other "objects" and these "interactions" are at the same time the "purpose" of my "form" no action could ever "deny" my "purpose".
If you've read Schopenhauer's "Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung" this will remind you of certain things, but I don't want to misguide anybody here. The line I quoted isn't really about will, it's colder, more scientific. But my point is this. It's pretty easy to dismiss things and takes some effort to interpret things.
And those who are willing to take the challenge and go through this movie in search of weltanschauungen and motivations shouldn't miss this film as it offers much.
