Was it better than the prequel ??
It opens up the 21st over here, and I have seen mixed reviews for it..
Internet-sites says it's not as dope as the first one..but still pretty dope.
The 2 biggest Norwegian newspapers both gave it 3 out of 6...

see its really great man...the thing is there are certain things that if u dont pay attention to or fail to understand..then the movie makes less sense to you and leaves you unclear...but if u pay attention and if uve been following the matrix all along deeply..u certainly like it and its better than the first one..
the action scenes are good, theres something extra inthe storyline as its not that basic as that of its predessesor, plus the level of complexity in this film is higher...more intellectual and certainly more thrilling...
definately better than the 1st...me, my bro and a friend watched it together and we were all exalted and impressed by the movie
-
i would reccomend watching this movie atleast twice so that things are clear
-
It kinda bored me and it was way too long. I won't hold it against the series as long as Reloaded is being used as a set up for Revolution, which looks really dope. Cuz they introduced alot of new guys in this movie that will prolly shine in Revolution.

I agree, i watched it for a second time and it makes more sense. The stunt/effects are better in this one than the 1st movie. But after all the action scenes, the dialog seems to drag and can be confusing sometimes. I would recommend watching it at least twice. It think this will probably end up being a good setup for Revolutions.

this movie was the shit!
i understood most of it the only part the was confusing was when the arcitect talked i was like wtf is he saying fucking big ass words lol
-
I thought the action scenes were way cool, but aside from that, I thought the movie was pretty boring.
-
the action scenes especialy the highway scenes were amazing but too much poinless talking and the whole movie was about nothing
-
The movie was a lot better than the 1st one. Although higher in complexity level, the storyline was a lot more interesting. Action scenes and special effects were out of this world, simply amazing.

You HAVE to be kidding me, the movie was about noting? Pointless talking? If you actually paid attention to the talking you would see how MUCH the movie was about. The heavy doses of spiritualism and philosphy, the metaphoric symbolism, everything from the colour of morpheus's clothes, to the candy, to the crows, even to Smith's whole name represented something. Heck, it could even be percieved as the mathematical universe where mathematics is the self-ordering consciousness of the universe and this could be ultimately be the story of a lonely little spontaneously generated program called 'choice' who just happened to have a profoundly damaging effect on the balanced universe of the system in spite of its relative insignifigance and it's struggle to survive in spite of all efforts of the universal system to correct itself.
It can represent the hyperreality engulfing us, through economic and political systems, through the media in general and through advertising specifically. The question of choice, fate, and highly debated concept of freewill. If you really think you understood the whole movie and still think its pointless, headover to Immortal Tech's thread about Matrix Reloaded and try answering some of my questions and doubts.
It's just a brilliant movie! I've head a few negative reviews Jome, but 99% of these reviews origninate from ignorance towards the movie's symbolic meaning and the complex mosiac of it's puzzling storyline.
Let me tell you this, if you are interested in spiritualty, philosphy, intelligence, action and indepth and complex storylines, this is the movie for you. The amazing direction and choreography will have you in awe, the cliffhanger at the end could piss you off, but also build up your desire to see Matrix Revolutions. Peace

Blade and Tech: The Matrix groupies lol :D
but I think it was significantly better than the first, not on anotha level tho I wasnt that impressed ;D
-
no it is way better...the story is way deeper and more interesting with great twists that keep you guessing and makes sure that you pay 100% attention to the movie...for me the plot/story is what made it better, the action scenes are great too

i saw it once and i still dont get it..
but its true.. if you walk away from the matrix 2 thinking that you got the whole movie you didnt get shit.. there are so many unanswered questions.
-
all i can say is di-duh di-duh DAMN
that movie was intense, i wasn't really feeling the way they ended it, they coulda made it more crazy but i loved the fact there was way more action an matrix style scene's ;D
-
Good movie, only seen it once so far, will get it on DVD when its out... a) to understand more about that big plot spillage near the end (it was a way too much to take in after all the action lol) and b) to watch the action scenes in slowmo cause there was loads of stuff going on in them :).

I would like to add a note for those of you who have seen the film. Please check out the new animatrix videos. There are these two special episodes called "The Second Renaissance" Part 1 and Part 2. The episodes are from the animatrix and are available on the follwing site for download for free. I was astonished after seeing those two major episodes. It really sheds light on the origin of the emergence of the matrix. Pls go see it @:
