The Matrix Reloaded Trailers

Six months after the events depicted in The Matrix, Neo has proved to be a good omen for the free humans, as more and more humans are being freed from the matrix and brought to Zion, the one and only stronghold of the Resistance. Neo himself has discovered his superpowers including super speed, ability to see the codes of the things inside the matrix and a certain degree of pre-cognition. But a nasty piece of news hits the human resistance: 250,000 machine sentinels are digging to Zion and would reach them in 72 hours. As Zion prepares for the ultimate war, Neo, Morpheus and Trinity are advised by the Oracle to find the Keymaker who would help them reach the Source. Meanwhile Neo's recurrent dreams depicting Trinity's death have got him worried and as if it was not enough, Agent Smith has somehow escaped deletion, has become more powerful than before and has fixed Neo as his next target.

After the events from the first movie, Neo is confronted with a war of monumental proportions. His "real life" city, Zion, is under attack by a huge number of drills and sentinels, leaving him short time to react. In the meantime, his old nemesis, Agent Smith, freed from the system, begins multiplying at a very fast rate, threatening the chosen one and his crew all over The Matrix.This sequel brings a new conflict to the world of the first film, and along with it, numerous fighting scenes, more and more complex and, of course, awesome in slow motion. Unfortunately, the story isn't as brilliant as the first ones, compensating though through drama and action. It is still a very good movie, which is to be continued in the last reenactment, leaving some suspense along the way.

My Rating: 11 out of 10. No word can describe how excellent this movie is! The first time I watched this , I was amazed! The second time I re-watched this, I was more amazed... The fifteenth time I repeated this movie... and I'm still amazed! I can't stop watching this. I'll enjoy it till the end of my life. The Matrix trilogy is unquestionably the best action packed movie so far. It has the best action scenes so far. It is the best sci-fi I've ever seen. Even in the year of 2017, this movie is still unbeatable to me.

Four years after the first Matrix film, comes "Matrix Reloaded" and this time around the world of Neo is a vastly less intriguing one.Matrix Reloaded is a vapid and sterile movie, which features little else other listlessly boring acting, ridiculously pretentious dialog and an unending amount of computer-generated "eye-candy", which tends to make this movie look more like a video game, rather than a live-action film. Having only seen it once, that being said this film follows an obvious and highly predicable formula of: action / pontificate at great length / adjust sunglasses / more action / pontificate some more, etc. To me this movie was nothing more than a tiresome and cringe-worthy series of (1.) Visually complex, yet utterly sterile and incredibly fake looking action scenes, which again, look more like a video game (and not a particularly good one), rather then a movie. (2.) And then there's the dialog..... which, as many other reviewers have also stated, is criminally bad and often insufferably painful, and that's entirely due to the movies wordy and highly pretentious screen-play. In at least half a dozen scenes this movie torture's you with one lame-ass "from the future" after another, who, without fail, indulges in a "deep" and lengthy speech; of which most are placidly delivered snore-fests, that tend to ebb and flow around possible/hypothetical out-comes of the future, whereas a few others are fire and brimstone diatribes that mostly focus on berating Neo. But in any case whoever the messenger may be (I found the snotty Frenchman to be the most obnoxious), all of these scenes are overflowing with some of the most exceptionally wordy and singularly pretentious screen-writing ever. Seriously, Matrix Reloaded is loaded with some of the all-time worst dialog, which it's makers SO DESPERATELY want you to be impressed by. But ultimately it comes off as nothing more than conceited nauseating drivel. They really should issue a barf-bag with the purchase of this movie - should you be stupid enough to waste your money on it in the first place.In conclusion Matrix Reloaded, though not completely bereft of artistic merit, is simply a very boring piece of Sci-Fi cheese, which also happens to showcase front and center, some of Keanu Reeves worst acting (it's as if he slept through his roll) and the only reason I finally got around to seeing this movie, a whole 14 years after it's release, is because Mike Nelson and the rest of the Rifftrax crew, gave it the long over-due ripping that it so rightfully deserves. They too have no delusions on how crappy this movie really is and without their commentary it would have been even more boring, to the point of being unwatchable.Matrix Reloaded = sterile, lifeless, super-massively over-rated, Sci-Fi rubbish.

The Matrix Reloaded is my personal favorite of the trilogy because it effectively deconstructed Neo's legend without delving into nihilism and introduced causality to the conflicting ideologies. Unlike the films before and after it, it shows a better focus on story and character development. Most people have criticized the last two films for ruining their expectations, but the Wachowskis did it the way they should do it. The Architect might be a bit hard to understand but he deconstructed Neo's myth. Same for how Smith converted from an Agent to a virus. The characters were well written and the scenes had perfect cinematography, including the infamous rave at Zion (which symbolized freedom of sexuality). Next up: The Matrix Trilogy: Part Two Point Five (Enter the Matrix).
