disappointing

Rating: 6/10 (1 November 2005)

well at this point i knew what to expect, more car chases and lame action set pieces, and territory that has been covered in dozens of movies before. gone is all the promise of the first movie, gone is the noir feel of the original, gone is philosophy of uncertainty in favor of merely going through the motions of philosophy.
and worst of all the jar jar binks of the matrix movies...... the trainman
let me see if i get this right. neo who is supposedly a representation of a near god-like figure in the matrix is rendered completely helpless in the face of a degenerate alcoholic with a s**tty revolver? the character doesn't come off as all that bad ass and is quickly forgotten meanwhile the badass-ness of the hero is severely undermined and for what gain? if you want to make memorable villains or heroes you have to avoid such frivolity as this.
Ug! so disappointing
6 out of ten
