Saw the Matrix Reloaded last night, not sure it was all it was hyped up to be. Matrix Reloaded was more of an action film this time around. The first Matrix was more intriguing, held my interest and was fascinating. Maybe it was because I was with someone and my thoughts were more on him, but I think if the Matrix Reloaded had more of the characteristics of the first movie it would have held more of my interest despite who I was with.
I really like the dance scene and the atmosphere of the Zion, a futuristic utopia world is fascinating in that we as humans can acheive that state of mind, living together in harmony as one. I like the whole concept/philosophy of Zion, that even though they are fighting the machines, they must rely on machines to survive.
What I missed that was in the first movie was more of the virtual world and the code behind the programs, the reason for the matrix and what the whole trilogy is about. Maybe I should have watch the first movie before seeing Reloaded because I was a little lost at first on what happened up to this point. Overall, I think it was a good movie, less action would have been nice - if I wanted to see an action movie, I think I would have choosen 2 fast 2 furious instead but the effects were good and it will be interesting to see the third movie and see it leads back to the virtual world concept.
