A good action packed sequel.

Rating: 9/10 (16 July 2003)

This movie more than met my expectations for a sequel, I always find that the original is better than the sequel, as was the case with this movie, but regardless of the original being better I still consider it a very enjoyable movie and one that should be seen in theaters. The special effects are excellent and new material is added to the movie to spice it up and not give you that been there done that feel that some sequels give.

The only negative comment I have for this movie is that the cliff hanger ending makes you feel like you are watching a season finale of a show instead of a movie. When I think of the ending of a movie I think of a end that, if part of a trilogy, at least has a stable ending even if not all the loose ends are tied up. I hardly ever imagine a movie ending with a "to be continued" as in The Matrix Reloaded. Regardless of the less than satisfactory ending I am still looking forward to and will most likely see in theaters the third Matrix movie.
