Review from Normal Person

Rating: Null/10 (16 May 2003)

Okay, here is a review from an average guy that loved The Matrix. I believe there are too many "Ebert and Rupert" wannabees trying to sound fancy and criticize the movie. I saw this last night and loved it. Fight scenes were great, chase scene was great, Neo vs. Mr. Andersons was GREAT. Everyone in the theater laughed at the funny stuff, gasped at the tricky stuff and held their breath during most of the fight sequences. Heck, we even got a handy "Matrix" bucket to put our popcorn in.
If I had to pick, I still think The Matrix was better than Reloaded, but only by a little and probably because it was new. My only complaint would have to be the love scene. It was fine as far as love scenes go but something just didn't fit. It is as if they thought they had to put a little extra skin on the screen to try to get more people to watch or something. Why was it there?
If you liked the Matrix and don't go to movies to figure out what is wrong with them but to just sit back and be entertained for a while, then you will definitely have a good time.
Can't wait until December.
