Boring and plump

Rating: 4/10 (31 October 2003)

When I saw "the matrix", I thought it was a very cool Sci-Fi Film with lots of great ideas and cool visuals.
So I was looking forward to the sequel. But what I saw in cinema was mostly disappointing. The film was directed very badly, the script was structured like a porn film ( neo meets guy, they fight, Trinitiy meets two guys, they fight, neo arrives at oracle, Smith comes, they fight etc) the FX were - apart from a couple of really excellent looking shots - mostly surprisingly bad and the philosophy was all too repetitive.
All in all I can't really say this was a good film. It has some of the cheesiest scenes I've seen this year, and I've seen many of them. And the FX in the opening scene from X2 were much more impressive then those from this film.
Still I'm looking forward to the third part. The Matrix deserved better than this.
