"Matrix Reloaded" Reviewed

First, let's spare folks who haven't seen it yet: SEE IT NOW -- BUY IT IN ADVANCE FIRST, THOUGH.


The short spoiler first:

Conference. Detection. Fighting. Superman escape. Return. Reverence. Sex. Message. Conversation. Duplication. Fighting. Superman escape. Conversation. Betrayal. Rescue. Fighting. Escape. Driving. Fighting. Explosion. Escape. Planning. Explosion. Bombing. Explosion. Backup plans. Entry. Conversation. Choices. Rescue. Indecision. Credits. Trailer.

Got that? Good. Now for my review. It's a very good movie, but it's not perfect. There's scenes that could use some more work in blending, and some areas (CGI stuff) needs more development to get right (Neo fighting Smith). Also, it's part of a trilogy -- expect it to continue to the end. However, it is worth seeing it at full fare.

Gotta admit, Striker, that's the best Cliffnotes review of the movie I've ever seen. :)

If you like that, you'll love The History of the Universe in 200 Words or Less (http://members.bellatlantic.net/~vze3fs8i/hist/hist.html), of which this is styled after. It's also part of A Breifer History of Time (http://members.bellatlantic.net/~vze3fs8i/bhtes/) which is alot more entertaining than Hawking's own book.
