Has Reloaded Really Been
"Largely Clobbered by The Critics?"
"The
Matrix Reloaded develops the Matrix myth or legend so that I actually
now enjoy the first film more, because I understand it better in retrospect."
Ebert
& Roeber's Two Thumbs Up
5/16/03
Matrix
At Cannes: "The kinky costumes turned stony cynics into cackling
schoolboys."
"Never
have so many wan and wacky epithets been flung so indiscriminately into
this illusion we call reality. Even George Lucas would find some of the
Wachowski brothers' dialogue turgid, and he invented the pox that now
afflicts most current high-budget futurism: people who talk in Hallmark
Zen aphorisms."
"There
will be ever more tiresome exegeses of thematic elements drawn from mythology
and religious history, yet I'm more concerned with the way the movie feels,
the way it looks as it rushes past, barrels confidently across tens of
millions of dollars of computer power on ever-expanding pixel frontiers.

Ebert's
Matrix "The speeches provide not meaning, but the effect of meaning:
It sure sounds like those guys are saying some profound things."
- Roger Ebert
"It's
a knockout in many ways, but it doesn't quite feel at the end of the day
like a triple-somersault, big-tittied, surfer-chick humjob."
- Movie Poop Shoot

Mitchell Weighs In On Reloaded
"Pigs
don't fly and the beloved block of wood we call Keanu Reeves has yet to
evince human emotion, but the Wachowski brothers have many, many other
miracles up their sleeves in ''The Matrix Reloaded.''
- Ty Burr, Boston Globe
"This
sequel is not just reloaded, it is an entirely new arsenal."
- Bruce Kirkland, Toronto Sun
"the
most distressing thing about the reloading of The Matrix is just
how much it feels like The Phantom Menace" -
Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star
5/12/03
"Matrix
Reloaded is, unlike the first film, a conventional comic-book movie,
in places a campy conventional comic-book movie, and in places a ludicrously
campy conventional comic-book movie."
- Adam Gopnik, The New Yorker

"While
upping the ante considerably in the action and effects department, storytelling
stumbles frequently this outing as the movie stops cold for philosophical
digressions about fate and destiny and reality."
