Matrix Warning - No Spoilers

[Sandan]

As you are my friends I feel it is my duty to warn you.

Matrix Reloaded SUCKS !!!!!! BIG TIME

All I will say is that righ up to the end I thought it was bad, real bad. By the time the credits rolled the only response I could think of was a one finger salute.

If you ignore this mental health warning you will come to understand me.

Remember I am the One, actually I am "A One" wgo doesn't give a **** anymore.

It was real bad

Sorry I was just being a smart ass.

 

[Sandan]

It really wasn't that bad, I mean not compared to AI, Lost in Space or Highlander 2.

But I think I go rent Bridges of Madison County to get some excitement. No not really but you get the point

 

[TruColor]

Am I the only person on the planet who REALLY, REALLY liked A.I.????

I really did. Is there something wrong with me?

Lost In Space sucked though...

 

[Cardinals.Ken]

"Lost In Space" ruled!

Never saw "A.I."

"Highlander 2" was one of the worst movies of all time.

And my latest "sleeper" pick? "Session 9" starring David Caruso.

You may return to football talk now...

<p>Nope---there's two of us. As luck would have it, I'm an ex-trombone player (high school band). Haven't touched one of those things though since 1961.

Yes there is something wrong with if you liked AI, but regardless you won't like the new MAtrix.

I mean even the "Matrix Kung Fu" sucked. It wasn't as good ( and this is something I do know about), parts were obviously CGI and how much twirling can you take.

I agree it was neat, even still is to a degree but good grief folks, after long enough it starts to be as exciting as ballroom dancing.

 

[TruColor]

Now...I liked "Strictly Ballroom" as well...

I gotta lie down...

<p>There's nothing wrong with ballroom dancing young un---why I remember-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Uuhhhhh, I guess I don't remember.

 

[Sandan]

You guys have a real problem, my mother used to like ballroom dancing, but then I'm over 40 as well.

I prefer more actice pursuits like taunting idiots over on the republic board.

FOOOOOOOTBAAAAAAL!

Don't listen to Nidan,

I really enjoyed it. Not as good as the first, but certainly not terrible.

Put it another way, I would pay full price for this movie and I will do so at least one more time.

 

[Sandan]

Correctdon't listen to me, do a searcg on Goggle for movie review matrix reloaded.

There are some that liked it, heck I liked parts of it. Is was not a good film, but in comparison to the original it was an unmitigated disater.

 

[Mike Olbinski]

Nidan, I know you didn't like it at all (you've made that pretty clear), but to assume no one else will like it because you didn't is pretty crazy.

Let them decide for themselves...they dont need a warning, it wasn't THAT bad of a movie.

Mike

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Well it is getting a solid 3.9 stars out of 5 on yahoo user reviews. Like I said...not like the best ever but not bad.

 

[Sandan]

Everybody I talked to or heard on the way out of the theatre were shaking their head in disbelif

 

[Sandan]

I also knew that nobody would believe me, I wouldn't have if the positions were reversed.

It was not good, but compared to M1 it was a disaster.

I'll give you that at least, M1 was far better....

[Fiasco]

I too liked A.I. Or perhaps the negative reviews before I saw it lowered my expectations below the movie.

Professor Hobby.... Make us into a real football team.

I respect your opinion of the movie, but the movie is a different breed from the first. If you look at it's intent, I think it is better than the first - think 2001 combined with Fight Club and you will have a realistic expectation of the movies unlying direction. It is a philosophical movie first, action movie second. I also think the Kung Fu was better, from a technical point of view, but can see how the coreography wasn't to your liking, it was far more traditional in this movie.

I also liked AI, but should have stopped when the boy jumped off the building. I think if you liked AI, you will really like this movie.

 

[Cardinal Bob]

Honestly, I thought the first one sucked too. Sure the special effects were cool and all, but at some point a movie needs a plot. I never found one in the the first movie.

I'll pass on Reloaded.

You are probably like me Nidan. While the "matrix" style of special effects driven martial arts was cool at first, it has been overused.

Nothing beats the exhibition of true physical talent and ability.

Hence.... Jackie Chan

Sometime I wonder if there is somethin he can't do. Sure it may take him a couple tries before he gets it down but damn some of the things Jackie does is just amazing.
