One of the Largest Wastes of Time Ever

Rating: 1/10 (19 December 2008)

As a big fan of the Matrix, I was entertained by this movie during the first hour, except that sometimes dialog devolved into bleep bleepin' bleep! That was so bleep! Are you bleeping me?
I think the script could have used some serious editing so that actual information could have been conveyed in the dialog, instead of just how amazing PO'd the character was (all the time).
When the plot twist occurred (think Star Wars), the movie actually expected me to go back and revise everything I had seen, including bullets running into each other, which would have otherwise been fatal.
"I was shooting at you to help you, not kill you!" Yeah, right!
My suspension of disbelief was over at that point. Then, with a more critical eye, I looked at all the other ridiculous plot elements, and realized I had pretty much wasted all of my time watching this thing.
I noticed that a lot of people who liked the movie also read the graphic novel. That probably makes the movie a lot more palatable and fills in blanks so that what is seen is not nonsense.
For those of us unfamiliar with the graphic novel, the movie turned on that one plot twist in a very disappointing fashion. I'm sorry, but rather than believe the movie, I'm believing "my lying eyes".
So, my final comment would be: "Bleep bleepin' bleep! That was so bleep! Are you bleeping me?"
