Once again impressive special effects but I wasn't blown away b the story

Rating: 7/10 (14 May 2003)

I just got out of an advanced screening of The Matrix 2 and while my jaw never really dropped in the movie I can say enjoyed the sequel more than the oringinal. In Redloaded everything is upped more, more action , more martial arts, more guns etc etc and less storyline. Once again Keanu uses his method acting to get through the role of NEO and once again the story is weak and that's the main problem. The story really drags between two of the biggest and best action sequences I've seen all year. But hey who really is going to see this movie for the story besides fan boys like me. Put it this way the action sequences were the best I just wished they would have used the twins more but the story was dragging a bit in the middle and it was better than the first one I just wasn't blown away.
