Namrata Joshi Outlook The sfx bombardment can't hide a lack of sense and substance. Rated: 2/4 Jan 4, 2019 Full Review Alexander Walker London Evening Standard The whole film may be more than a bit suspect cerebrally, with dime-store philosophy, potted mysticism and cut-price otherworldliness, but visually it gives full value as a virtuoso workout for your senses. Jan 10, 2018 Full Review Barbara Ellen Times (UK) Indeed, if you loved the first Matrix and its mix of comic-book angst, martial arts, virtual reality, video-game punch-ups, pop philosophy, biblical subtext, romance, tragedy and pathos, then you won't be disappointed. Jan 2, 2018 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand They don't come up with anything new, but it's bigger, louder, and mighty impressive, even if the dialogue sounds more and more like a preprogrammed video game. Sep 9, 2023 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review The film entertains despite its structural shortcomings, as the Wachowskis have created a cinematic world that’s a pleasure to experience, even though it’s not as satisfying as its predecessor. Rated: 2.5/4 Jul 12, 2022 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins It’s more of a teenage fantasy than ever before, overflowing with stoic figures in black garb, machine guns, stabbing weapons, car chases, and seductive women, even if it’s difficult to discount the utterly mesmerizing, sustained highway chase sequence. Rated: 6/10 Jul 11, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member While The Matrix is timeless, its sequel is more of a conventional sci-fi/action movie. The action is great - the staircase-to-highway chase scene is an all-timer. But the sci-fi part jumps the shark, and ends up feeling like a mediocre Start Trek episode. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/31/24 Full Review wade w The Matrix Reloaded may not be as good as the critically acclaimed predecessor but it is still a worthy entry that would leave you wanting more. The Matrix sequel only puts deeper in the rabbit hole that the original put you in. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/11/24 Full Review Shukri R noah:says the matrix reloaded it's my favourite movie! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/02/24 Full Review Alex L Step down from the original movie. Wire works and CG take the audience out of it sometimes. Story becomes more convoluted Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/14/24 Full Review Draec M The sequel to the sensational "The Matrix," which unfortunately slightly disappointed expectations... However, it is still excellent to watch. Some scenes are permanently memorable! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/08/24 Full Review Diego F Good ideias, execution Just ok.
