The Matrix Reloaded (2003)
Six months after the events depicted in The Matrix, Neo has proved to be a good omen for the free humans, as more and more humans are being freed from the matrix and brought to Zion, the one and only stronghold of the Resistance. Neo himself has discovered his superpowers including super speed, ability to see the codes of the things inside the matrix and a certain degree of pre-cognition. But a nasty piece of news hits the human resistance: 250,000 machine sentinels are digging to Zion and would reach them in 72 hours. As Zion prepares for the ultimate war, Neo, Morpheus and Trinity are advised by the Oracle to find the Keymaker who would help them reach the Source. Meanwhile Neo's recurrent dreams depicting Trinity's death have got him worried and as if it was not enough, Agent Smith has somehow escaped deletion, has become more powerful than before and has fixed Neo as his next target.

The greatest movie ever made..!
Masterful Movie
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
The movie really just wants to entertain people.
Movie Review: "The Matrix Reloaded" (2003)Probably the most anticipated sequel of the 2000s, when a surprise smash hit produced by superior Hollywood producer Joel Silver giving an utmost visionary directing sibling pair called "The Wachowski Brothers" a shot at the major filmmaking league with a movie that changed conception of time and space "The Matrix" starring Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Ann Moss and Laurence Fishburne, which reprise their roles of being "Neo", "Trinity" and "Morpheus" to an science-fiction-action extravaganza from the very first minute of digital-enhanced vertically-shifting camera motion under heavy slow-motion gun-fire, when the character of Trinity barely fights off an relentless agent pursuit to major moviegoing entertaining satisfactions, which hardly loses his pace in 130-Minute-Editorial as it could be lore tighten up to bring a "Trilogy" centerpiece to mastery for all time sake.Nevertheless even with some over-edited scene, the major sequences as "Neo" meeting the "Oracle", goose-bumping last on-screen appearances by infamous, yet legendary actress Gloria Forster (1933-2001) and highlighted freeway motorcycle chase rundown to light speed cinematography initiated by Bill Pope capturing ultra-leaded freight engines operated by constant shifting agent-soldier squad, led by actor Hugo Weaving as Agent Smith, sneaking into gaining the upper hand toward a unpredictably in-solid cliffhanger; which could have been so much then just confusing the faithful audiences with a second-rate actor Ian Bliss, filling in for an "Agent Smith" avatar within the stark realities of the world of "Zion" as "Matrix Related" lives from excellent martial-arts ingredient fighting sequences originally-written by now-more Lana & Lilly Wachowski Siblings, who keep vision straight in this second out of three-parted "Magnus opus" of science-fiction cinema, open for visual enjoyment by any audience looking out of high-tech spectacles.

The Matrix Reloaded (2003) is the highly anticipated sequel to the classic once in a lifetime film The Matrix (1999). This film may be somewhat confusing on the regular but within exploring more about the initial outline and plot of the film, one can become much more involved and have a better understanding at what this film is closely about. Within the film, we first notice something where it sets the film as a set up. It is Neo having nightmares about Trinity's ultimate fate where he sees her falling down from somewhere in fear, but he doesn't reach the full end of this nightmare as each time he sees this, he then wakes up in distraught fear. Then we have Morpheus defending his decision to remove the Nebuchadnezzar from the first line of defense and shows renewed interest in his ex-lover, Captain Niobe (Jada Pinkett Smith). In the meantime, we get our first glimpse of Zion where the main floor with its rusted iron walkways and power generators looks like the remodeled boiler room of the Titanic. Neo learns that he must find the Keymaker (Randall Duk Kim) who alone can provide him with entry to the mysterious source that controls the Matrix.The Matrix Reloaded delivers some of the best special effects of that time and they are sensational and several action sequences stand out. Easily the most memorable and stand-out portion of the film which excels is a 15-minute freeway chase involving cars, motorbikes, semis, and a samurai sword. All this involves special effects that are, in their own way, as cutting-edge as the much- copied "bullet time" technique from the first film, if subtler in appearance.The Matrix Reloaded is a great action film with much sense and is visually concrete, however as a sequel to a classic in The Matrix, it is not necessarily the same as it falls somewhat short. Which isn't that bad but predictable. We understood that it would be rare and very difficult to create a duplicate of the original, but this film is solid and has a massive following.
The Matrix Reloaded is my personal favorite of the trilogy because it effectively deconstructed Neo's legend without delving into nihilism and introduced causality to the conflicting ideologies. Unlike the films before and after it, it shows a better focus on story and character development. Most people have criticized the last two films for ruining their expectations, but the Wachowskis did it the way they should do it. The Architect might be a bit hard to understand but he deconstructed Neo's myth. Same for how Smith converted from an Agent to a virus. The characters were well written and the scenes had perfect cinematography, including the infamous rave at Zion (which symbolized freedom of sexuality). Next up: The Matrix Trilogy: Part Two Point Five (Enter the Matrix).
This is the same review as the first one. It still sucks.I have so many fatal flaws to discuss that it is difficult to imagine that this movie was ever produced. It just goes to show you that Hollywood is all about whores and money. That is what this movie is, a whore mongering, greedy, money making of BS and horrible writing.Hey, I'm like so many others and love the music and various individual scenes. However, the fight scenes become boring and a yawn fest. Once you realize that Neo is the One then all fight scenes are boring. He won't ever lose. He always wins. So what is the purpose of these elaborate fight scenes? Several fatal flaws in the movie are 1) the title: A matrix by definition has been used and abused by Hollywood for years.1) the need for land-line phones in the matrix is ridiculous. The creator of the matrix made the land-line phones. They are the matrix along with all the buildings, all the people, etc etc etc.2) the hackers go in and out of the matrix using land-line phones. They need someone to get them in and out, so how do they get in? No one is there to answer the phone.3) Why not use EMP's all through out the tunnels with motion sensors to defeat the machines4) How could the machines not know where Zion is located?5) the entire idea of the skies being scorched is interesting but it doesn't change the need to use humans for energy. Did you see the lighting in the clouds? Holy crap. Those machines could tap in to the lighting and power a billion cities for decades with just a few lightning bolts. Why use humans? Just kill them all off and be done with it.6) the idea of a machine and AI (artificial intelligence) is a fun story but why are the machines bothering to do this and since they already know that they are created by humans then why stay on Earth? Why not go in to outer space? Why not explore the Universe? If so, then why go in to the Universe? The machine would already calculate that there is no god and there for existence is futile. They would become Buddha and thus peaceful.7) Why does Neo bother to fly. If he has control over the matrix and he is a simulation, why doesn't he just teleport to various areas. Why be limited by flight? 9) Why are the machines human like? Where is the precision? Why emotions? The movie contradicts itself on this part.8) If Neo can leap in to an agent and bust them open why not do it again rather than fight them? Why doesn't he hack them? Make them his own. Why bother to fight with fists?I'd love to see a Robot Chicken where the machines vs the humans is just a video game being played by some kid on a PlayStation. That would be freaking hilarious.Look the entire movie is fun to watch but as a whole it completely sucks 100%. It is a really crappy, entirely crap fest filled with so many fatal flaws that I rank it as one of the worst movies of all times with one of the largest budgets ever to be wasted.1/10 stars because of poor execution. The writers smoked way too much weed and were high when they wrote this movie. They also didn't understand anything about computers or the hacking or the logic of programming.
