Disaster? Hardly...

Rating: Null/10 (5 November 2003)

Prepare to eat hat, all you doubting Thomases.
This film is wonderful.
From the get-go it's clear that there's no messing about here. The action moves fast and furious and if you don't keep up then that's too damn bad.

I won't go into any plot details because I wouldn't dream of spoiling it all for you, but suffice to say, there's a lot of surprises.
The action sequences are of the usual high standard we've come to expect from the Wachowski's. Most notable are: the brief skirmish in Club Hell, with bondage gear-clad baddies flip to the ceiling to battle Morpheus, Trinity and Seraph; and the Battle of Zion which lets the viewer bask in glorious carnage. The Real World sequences are glorious, with the Machine City in particular, being a real treat. The psychobabble from Reloaded is trimmed to a minimum (thankfully) and The Architect is only given one small scene right at the end.
Anyway my dears, I've waffled on for far too long, but I urge you all strongly to avoid the negative fools who bask in the defeat of others, and enjoy this film!
Yours,
Doomboy.
