The Matrix Reloaded and Firing Blanks!
Review of The Matrix Reloaded DVD by
amac120
Advantages: Great Characters and Effects
Disadvantages: Too much information and excessive use of special effects.
...I did love Reloaded for the most part but there were just as many minus' as plus'.
The obvious place to begin is with the plus'. The main characters are back this time with some new comrades, as before, played perfectly by Keanu Reeves, Lawrence Fishburn and Carrie Ann Moss. The special effect are absolutely breathtaking aswell as the fight scenes, but there are too many of them.
The problem I think, is, The Matrix was acclaimed for its special ...

Larger than life and tooo good to miss
Review of The Matrix Reloaded DVD by
neo_15
Advantages: Great speacial effects,Larger than life fighting sequences and car chases
Disadvantages: none
...and it is different from the first film but obvously The Woachoski brothers had to show the city Zion which Morphous talks about in the film.They have actually shown the city in the film and The director had to put some characters in the film other wise it would have been too similar to the first film.They had to make the film more bigger and vast.
The fighting scenes and the special effects are absolutely amazing.As neo(Keanue Reeves) shows us ...

Not as good as The Matrix I`m afraid!!
Review of The Matrix Reloaded DVD by
lil_kayb
Advantages: undoubtedly a good film ,superb special effects
Disadvantages: does it quite live up to expectation!?
After all the hype ,all the press coverage ,comes this ,The Matrix Reloaded .And reloaded it is ,only not quite as well on the mostpart.
First things first ,the storyline would be incomprehendable unless you`ve seen the first film! In The Matrix the concepts are laid down for this predecessor, the bizarre world that they live in is explained in the first and the concept of fate vs. free-will ,which is in my opinion an over mentioned theme anyway ...

Superman or neo
Review of The Matrix Reloaded DVD by
Taylor1911
Advantages: More fight scenes
Disadvantages: a little complicated
As a massive fan of the first Matrix film, natuarally i couldn't wait for the sequal. I wasn't dissapointed, right from the word off you could tell that it would be special. Of course watching it on a 30' screen helps, but i would be just as happy watching it on a 14" portable. The fact that Keanu Reeves (Neo) makes all the fight scenes look so effortless is amazing in its self. The story isn't that bad either, altough i do urge people to pay close ...

Lets hope that third times a charm.
Review of The Matrix Reloaded DVD by
pledger166
Advantages: A chance to delve further down the rabbit hole?
Disadvantages: bad acting, excessive CGI, no real depth to the story line
I was disappointed. The Matrix Re-loaded is nothing but an easy money maker for the brothers.
Gone is the mystery of the characters, and the environment, the Zion Footage was nothing more than an excuse to extend the film. The Morpheous character is that of a Shakespearean Thespian now, and Neo is now superman and flies away at will.... and who cares about the relationship of the Matrix computer administrator and his girlfriend?....many of these ...

Exellent Film
Review of The Matrix Reloaded DVD by
austmanic
Advantages: Special Effect,Sound Track,Actors,Everything.
Disadvantages: To Be Continued
...& was not disapointed by the majority when i saw it. I was gripped to my seat all the way through. There were a few points when i did get lost with the story but that was due to one of the actors talking to fast for the information to be absorbed.
The special effects are very good & the fight scenes were excellent. I was not expecting things to pan out as they did but i dont want to give away to much.
The love story between Neo & Trinity was ...

Special effects, special film
Review of The Matrix Reloaded DVD by
hmvs_dog
Advantages: Gripping, stunning film
Disadvantages: The ending....
...classic blockbuster film such as The Matrix are often slow, boring and you just wish they had not bothered to make it and you had not paid £5 to go and see it. Prepare yourselves for a very pleasant surprise.
I do stress, you will only enjoy this film if you enjoyed The Matrix. I am tempted to say, if you enjoyed the first film, you're in for more of the same. In fact, you are not in for more of the same, you are in for so much more.
The special ...

This is so much more than an action movie
Review of The Matrix Reloaded DVD by
Kageybee
Advantages: Visually stunning, but also thought provoking
Disadvantages: There going to make us wait until November for the conclusion
...your brain for 90 minutes, The Matrix Reloaded is not one of those films. I have to say that the original "Matrix" is not one of my favourite films, I don't like it as much as I feel I should, the sequel however just blew me away.
The set pieces ( an there are enough here for two movies) are just breath-taking. The "Burly Brawl" and the "Freeway" scene are just staggering. You will want to duck as semis come hurtling towards you, thats if you don't ...

How to turn a good story into a bad film
Review of The Matrix Reloaded DVD by
ajbrook
Advantages: Brilliant Special Effects; One scene
Disadvantages: the plot is lost
If like me you loved the story of the first Matrix film, the clever way it made you think on aspects of the story as you left the cinema. This film will not be for you, but if all you got from the first film was that the special effects are amazing and all the fights were “really cool” then in no doubt this film will be you.
The matrix reloaded has probably the best special effects you’ll see in any film this year and contains more fight scenes ...

You think that's air you're breathing now
Review of The Matrix Reloaded DVD by
Lidless_Eye
Advantages: Excellent visual EFX and amazing sounds. Classy stuff
Disadvantages: Could never improve on the story, only the action.
OK. The Matrix happened, everyone knows the story. Once the scene is set it is difficult to develop the story and the characters further. The main progression with this movie is the choreography in the fight sequences, and the special visual and sound effects.
I'm still buzzing after watching Matrix Reloaded. The fight sequences are so much better than in the original flick. Not just because there are more weapons or because there are more baddies. ...
