Well, had some extra time today and got to catch an afternoon showing of The Matrix Reloaded. Was it worth all the hype? Most definitely! The movie is a pretty awesome acheivement -- both in movie-making and in special effects. The movie turns everything that we learned in the first movie upside down. The special effects are awesome, and just like in the first movie a lot of them are transparent. The burly brawl stacks up well to the hype. The highway chase scene is very exciting. All in all this movie does quite when compared to the first. I can't wait to see the third one -- remember it comes out in six months!
