WOW!!!

Rating: 10/10 (31 May 2003)

WOW!!! What a GREAT film!!! The storyline was brilliant but I think that it's necessary for anyone who hasn't seen The Matrix to do so before going to see Reloaded to make some sense of the story. Keanu Reeves (Neo), Carrie-Anne Moss (Trinity), Laurence Fishburne (Morpheus), & Hugo Weaving's (The Agent's Smith) acting talents are up to their usual brilliant standards. The special effects are phenomenal.
What I am glad about is that Reloaded doesn't try to outdo The Matrix but instead supplements it very well (which is more than can be said for some sequels where they try to repeat what has come before). The fight sequences are very well choreographed (the stand out for me is the Neo and Agent Smiths' fight). The car chase is well executed and some of the stunts performed during it are great!
I bought Enter The Matrix for the PC and I played that first before going to see Reloaded and was absolutely amazed at how well it ties into the film. It adds some extra storyline to it. But it is not necessary to play Enter The Matrix before going to see Reloaded.
The Matrix Reloaded gets a great big 10/10 from me and I know that when this gets released on DVD and Video it will make a great addition to anyone's collection. This is DEFINITELY the Year Of The Matrix!
