boring shoot-em-all

Rating: 2/10 (22 January 2005)

If you liked the ingenuity and atmosphere of the original Matrix, my advice is: don't watch this copy-paste shoot-em-all piece of film. It's simply very boring. My guess is that around 70% of the running time is like watching a Nintendo play some demo of a game all by itself. Thousands of little squish-like monsters are attacking all over, while the good guys are trying to blast them. The little romance and human side of the plot gets stuck in your throat, just doesn't fit into the rest of the flick. The movie basically lacks a proper plot, and has nothing to offer for the brain (well, aside from your visual cortex, that is :)
