Reasonable Sequel

Rating: 8/10 (7 May 2004)

Today I have bought the DVD `Matrix Revolutions' and I decided to see again `Matrix Reloaded'. The first thirty minutes, until the rave party, is boring and Neo flying like Superman is ridiculous, but the rest of the story is reasonable. When I saw this movie for the first time on 20 October 2003, I was very disappointed. When you compare `Matrix Reloaded' with the original `Matrix', it is impossible not to feel this way. The dialogs with The Architect are very confused and the screenplay has many flaws and exaggeration. The fight of Neo with many Agent Smith is another ridiculous scene. But anyway it is a good entertainment, full of special effects. My vote is eight.
Title (Brazil): `Matrix Reloaded'
