All flash, no story

Rating: Null/10 (18 May 2003)

Like being in the mind of a teenage boy for two hours...what was with the sex romp in Zion?...and the total destruction of a great myth?...fight scenes that go on for hours...no development of character, especially the romance (HELLO! relationships are not all about sex!), the best part of the movie is in the last 20 minutes when we get a slight revelation of something deeper than a video game and philosophy that actually makes sense. For the most part there is an intense lack of actual story development and originality...along with poorly written dialogue and overly philosophical rants that don't go anywhere. They set something incredible up with the first one and totally did not put in the time or effort to see it through. Sad.
