Great Visuals, no Filling...

Rating: 7/10 (15 May 2003)

This movie reminds me of the lastest 2 star wars flicks. Great graphics and CGI and horrible acting and or lack of plot. The original was much much better than this movie and while the special effects in Reloaded were phenomenal, I just couldnt bear to watch the great plot of Animatrix Renaissance and the original Matrix be so discarded in favour of pointless action scenes. (Why did Neo fight 100+ Smiths? no reason, he appears out of no where). Morpheus and Trinity have such minor roles compared to the first one and the human base is such a disgrace, its full of poor people in rags...yet they have hovercraft ships? Give me a break, they all look like they came from a slave camp or something. Theyre civilized im sure they have a tailor and they said they have water purifaction, im sure they can take baths too. Ill give this a 7 but only because the graphics and fight scenes made it decent to watch, even though I found many oddities and wondering why they had to toss in more fight scenes when there was no plot indicating why.
