This is the worst sequel ever made

Rating: 1/10 (12 October 2014)

To understand how bad this film is, one must understand how great the first film was
the mythology, the ideas, the writing, the brilliance
the first matrix film is one of the all time great films ever made- and had i not had this sequel made it may still be considered that
its rare for a sequel to be so bad that it actually makes the proceeding film worse- that, my friend, is an achievement
i'm a firm believer that the wachowski brothers had no input in the first film- they stole all the ideas- because they were involved in this abomination and it simply has nothing to do with the first film, bar sharing the same characters
the wachowski brothers are the cinematic equivilents then, of stalin, of mao, of Hitler at his worst- they have polluted a once great idea, a great film experience into some semi-neo con indulgent circle jerk
its awful what they created in this mess
if you are looking for positives for this mess
i can say, if you never watched the first film then you can watch this with your brain switched off
imagine this as a michael bay film and you have an idea of what to expect
....on second thoughts i apologise for that hideous comment- the wachowski brothers are cinematic hitlers but its just wrong on all levels to even compare them to michael bay
nothing is as bad as michael bay
the only word that fits this film is huge let down
its like the first film is a perfect rose in a garden, you can marvel at its beauty, or its complexity, you can think about it later and appreciate it on a whole new level
this sequel is like the smell of dung hanging around the garden
