This review took me awhile because I took it to reflect upon it. * wink * It opens with a great special effect scene with Trinity and explosions and the agents. It’s a bit of the trailer. After that its about 30 minutes of life in Zion. (which I really didn’t care for). It’s a rather boring period of time until the party starts with lots of bass. Its rather erotic 5 minutes with the dance mixed with segments of Neo and Trinity. * Wink Wink*. A little after that, they go back into the Matrix and it gets exciting! Neo talks to the Oracle who tells him some stuff and explains ghosts and aliens. Then it’s the scene where Neo fights off the Agent Smith’s in an amazing sequence. It looks great and filled with action. Among the new characters, you meet the Key Maker. He has a lot of keys I guess. There are a few new characters you meet, The President of Zion, , Link who is replacement for Tank, Naiobi, and a few other people. Neo can fly now. Agent Smith is now obsolete or not needed in the Matrix so he wanders looking for Neo I guess. There are a few awesome fight scenes! Morpheus, Trinity, and Neo then protect the Key Maker from the Twins which leads to another awesome action sequences on the freeway. That sequence alone is worth admission. Afterward, Neo meets the Architect who made the Matrix. CLICK HERE TO SEE THE CONVERSTION. Neo then has a discussion to make he makes it . Oh the plot is the machines are drilling to the center of the earth where Zion is to get more heat. NOTE: The Matrix Revolutions comes this November. KEEP THAT IN MIND.
This movie is hard to compare to the first one. This isn’t a clone of the same script in a different situation like Home Alone or Austin Powers. (Not that those were bad movies) This has amazing action sequences which are very memorable. The long part that took part in Zion is the only thing I didn’t really like about it but after that when they get into the Matrix, it is an astonishing spectacle. It didn’t make you think as much as the first one with references to Alice in Wonderland and what is the Matrix (Not that I was really thinking about that watching it the first few times) It was that there wasn’t that much “philosophical stuff”. It is still a worth while movie that is destined to become a classic in action, but the story/action classic the original is. If you haven’t seen it (probably a few of you out there) this is worth it to see it in theaters. Oh yeah! The sound was great! Probably going to get some Academy Award nominations in visual effects and sound and maybe so other stuff.
