Matrix: Reloaded
Saw this with the guys recently. I read the reviews, most of them being bad, and saying that it doesn't compare with the first movie, and can even hold its own with X2. I disagree. I think what most of the whiners are complaining about was in the first movie. The first movie just happened to be so new in it's style and effects that it made a great impression. Reloaded just continues the story, and if the story was what impressed you the first time around, then you'll be pleased with the latest entry. The movie ends with a surprising 'to be continued' - it leaves lots of questions unanswered, and I doubt that those questions will see enlightenment when Revolutions gets released. The questions around faith and choice, causality ... wow! Enough to leave you thinking for quite some time! I enjoyed the movie, and have to see it in the theatres at least 2 more times.
