The Matrix Reloaded Reviews and Ratings



  • November 28, 2009
    Im not positive for these movies yet.
  • November 27, 2009
    The two Matrix sequels were monumental disappointments to say the least. Why? Well, let's face it, the sequels were following one of the most original and innovative films of all time. The Matrix is an all-time iconic movie. Then there was this LITTLE problem that faced the Wacho...( read more)wski Brothers and their writing team. You see, the brothers lifted, heavily, the primary idea and storyline for the original Matrix film from a woman's novel (A 1981 literary masterpiece called The Third Eye by Sophia Stewart to be precise). This book, which was also ripped off by James Cameron for the original Terminator film plot, revolves around a dark futuristic world run by artificial intelligent machines and a superhuman "Chosen One" leading the human race out of slavery. Mind you, this book came out 18 years before the Matrix was released so the argument that the woman ripped off Warner Brothers has no merit whatsoever. Anyhoo, because this novel ended essentially with this Chosen One ending the war between the humans and machines, there was NO MORE STORY TO LIFT FROM. Soooooo, the Wachowski Brothers (and producer Joel Silver) were left with the arduous chore of continuing a brilliant story for the subsequent sequels--The Matrix Reloaded being the first. They failed. Miserably. The lack of additional story from the novel coupled with the brothers inability to come up with as high a caliber continuation story arc was the basis of the failure of the two sequels. It explains why the two Matrix sequels, really, have nothing to do with the original. If you watch them closely, both actually contradict the original film. The best they could come up with was Neo's fight with 10,000 Agent Smiths, which after the first 15 minutes became sensual overkill. Ironically, that sums up the sequels perfectly. Too much stimulation exhausted the moviegoers. (Ms. Stewart consequently won her seven-figure lawsuit against Warner Brothers. Cha-ching for her not so much for Warner Brothers because the Matrix sequels combined almost didn't top the original's box office take. Nice business strategy there, guys).

    Watch it... if you want to see a smarter, trendier, visually and emotionally more complex, and ultimately more interesting film than the original, while still retaining the same look and feel.

    Avoid it... if you found the first film to be already stretching your ridiculous-o-m...( read more)eter, for in addition to being better on almost all fronts than the original, The Matrix Reloaded is also several degrees more ridiculous.
  • November 22, 2009
    The dance orgy spoiled it for me. Otherwise, ideologically brilliant.
  • November 18, 2009
    it is the summum of animation movie I have ever seen
  • November 16, 2009
    I am not a fan of the Matrix movies but some of the fighting is kind of cool to watch.
  • November 13, 2009
    Love the first one better but not bad
  • November 11, 2009
    I think they put everything they had into the first film and any follow-up or trilogy structure was doomed. They weren't bad films, but they didn't have the charge or the sublime brilliance the original Matrix provided with a teasing, even pace.
  • November 11, 2009
    Was brilliant other than the fact of adding too much to the already good plot.
  • November 9, 2009
    not as good as the first but slightly better than the 3rd
  • November 7, 2009
    This is another good trilogy movie. I believe that it's almost better than the first two.
  • November 7, 2009
    Is one movie I watched and I saw myself.
  • November 1, 2009
    pretty good sci fi ... not a bad seqeul to matrix
  • October 31, 2009
    After a classic there needs to be some seriously cool stuff and this movie has it. It is long but it sustains it with action and a great story. Unfortunately if you watch it too many times (as I have) some action scenes have gay parts but overall it is shot well and arguably bett...( read more)er than the first.
  • October 29, 2009
    The weakest of the three films as it loses its fast paced and thrller instinct so iconic in the first and the plot seems a little aloof.

    Nevertheless there are some well choreographed and needed action scenes and more of a backdrop is set. it does leave on quite a good cliffha...( read more)nger, however it still leaves you bored.
  • October 29, 2009
    Not as good as the origianl of course.
  • October 28, 2009
    I have this dvd: that good shows! :D
  • October 27, 2009
    Getting a little too deep. The first one was the best.
  • October 26, 2009
    " The Matrix Reloaded is a stylish action flick with astonishing CGI and is a fine sequel to fit in with the trilogy." B+: Really good.
  • October 26, 2009
    AMAZING AND UNBELIEVABLE
  • October 25, 2009
    A huge disappointment except in the special effects department once again. Visually, this is an amazing film. But this movie just drags on for way too long, that at times, it was kind of boring. Thank goodness for the highway scene and the twins, or otherwise this would have been...( read more) a waste in my opinion. I am kind of looking forward to seeing how this is going to end, but my expectations for this are going to be low.
  • October 24, 2009
    A great film! It was an outstanding sequel and, although not supirior to the original, it was a well made movie that stayed true to it's core.
  • October 24, 2009
    most disappointing of the lot, the sickly annoying love affair between neo and trinity made you yearn for one of them to die. pretty disappointing ending to the series. more bullets than rambo.
  • October 23, 2009
    each matrix film does not let you down with great action, acting 7 plot.
  • October 21, 2009
    not as good as the first or third
  • October 20, 2009
    Liked it very much. Neo kicks ass, saves Trinity and starts to fly like it's showed in 1st movie finalle. The visual effects are again revolutionary although a bit exagerated in some scenes (agent jumpimg in the car).
  • October 16, 2009
    No comment. F you Wachowski brothers. F you.
  • October 16, 2009
    I really liked this movie..
  • October 14, 2009
    Personally like [The Matrix Reloaded] most among the trilogy. Stunning actions & CG effects.
  • October 14, 2009
    neo is kinda cute...
  • October 14, 2009
    Very good but not as good as the 1st one.
  • October 12, 2009
    Maybe this is an uncommon opinion, but this was actually my favourite of the Matrix films. Good action and good build-up of the story. This is the one I most enjoy watching.
  • October 10, 2009
    not quite the masterpiece the first one was but still awesome in its own right.
  • October 10, 2009
    Good. The Burly brawl and the mansion fight are great.
  • October 9, 2009
    Sorry guys, but the plot line was a little dull in all honesty, but the fight choreography was pretty much amazing so I wont rate it harshly.
  • October 7, 2009
    a ploy to get more money and blow stuff up, sad sad sequel
  • October 6, 2009
    The highway scene was the only reason to see this movie. The opening orgy/celebration scene was pointless as was most of the dialogue. They should have stopped at one movie!
  • October 6, 2009
    Not as bad as I heard but still think they should have just stopped at The Matrix and left it an original classic.
  • October 5, 2009
    Never Let You Go Kiss
  • October 4, 2009
    It's ok but not as good as the first one
  • October 3, 2009
    Keanu Reeves and Laurence Fishburne. Excellent
  • October 2, 2009
    Initially I didn't like this final installment, at all and came out almost angry with the Wachowskis for having screwed up their own wonderfully inventive franchise. Upon additional viewings I'm more inclined to give it more room. The ending STILL does not make any sense at all...( read more) - I mean, come onnnn: the machines "need" Neo to kill the very virus they created otherwise yaddayaddablahblah you-get-the-picture zzzzz
  • October 1, 2009
    un poco repetitiva pero con grandes efectos especiales y asi soy yo, a mi me gusta q desbaraten hasta el nido de la perra
  • October 1, 2009
    Did they need a sequel?
  • October 1, 2009
    Good sequel with amazing visual effects, awesome scenes and cool moves. Love it.
