Default My "Matrix: Reloaded" review (MAJOR SPOILERS) - 05-15-2003, 01:55 AM

Story:

Zion is about to be attacked, all ships are ordered to stand ready to fight...
except the NEB - Commandeered by Morpheus - which stays in broadcast
range of the Matrix. Neo consults the Oracle, who is really another program
from the Matrix, working for itself or on orders from someone or something.
In order to stop the attack on Zion, they must destroy the Matrix, and to do
so, find the Keymaker. In order to access the source, they must shut down
the power to a huge block and to do so, require the help of the Icarus and
another ship, the Hammer. After some action, Neo meets the godlike
Architect, who is the creator of the Matrix. He must choose to save Trinity or
destroy the Matrix. Saving Trinity, they exit the Matrix and leave the ship,
which is about to get blown to bits. Sentinels find the crew and Neo creates
an EMP blast, halting the attack, rendering himself unconscious.

Thoughts:

Okay, they're in another Matrix. I don't know how else Neo would have done
that EMP blast in the "real" world: thus, we are treated to THE THIRTEENTH
FLOOR all over again. If you haven't already, see that movie and you will
understand what I mean. The godlike Architect stole the show: whether he
is human or machine is still debatable, however I gravitate towards human:
after all, wouldn't that be the ultimate form of power and of controlling said
Cause and Effect ? We'll find out on November 5th...
