The Matrix Reloaded


The Matrix Reloaded (2003) Official Trailer #1 - Keanu Reeves Movie HD
Movieclips Classic Trailers

Lots of good stuff but nowhere near as good as the original. Lots of Keano kung-fu fighting against a phalanx of Agent Smiths. Very long, very destructive car chase scene. The Frenchman was a nice touch as were his perverse wife and his twin albino henchman. Long incomprehensible explanations of what the hell is going on which didn't do much good on account of being incomprehensible. Neo becomes superman and rescues Trinity from certain death, but then she dies anyway, but Neo being the one, brings her back to life. While the original was like a relentless stream of hammer blows, this one was more like the incessant tapping of tiny wooden hammer like you would use to play a xylophone. Lots of action, some new mysteries, but no real twists or turns. Pretty much runs straight through to the conclusion, except the conclusion is in part 3.

On HBO, 2+ hours.
