Quite possibly one of the stupidist things ever filmed. The fact that some young people actually like this movie is disturbing indeed. This was without a doubt one of most predictable, boring, uninspired movies I’ve ever witnessed.

Memento
Really well done. The movie is about a guy who has no ability to form new memories. He gets wrapped-up in a complicated plot where he’s trying to exact revenge on the person who killed his wife, but is really being used by those around him. The writing and editing/direction of the movie was first rate. Most significantly, the movie is presented in “reverse time”, which was a great way of helping the audience identify with the main character… possibly the only way.
The only problem? if this man has no ability to remember things, how does he know he has “this condition”, or that he’s in the revenge business (he’s not looking at his tatoos every few seconds). I think he’d be a lot less-functional in real life, but then we wouldn’t have much of a movie would we? Well, that’s really nit-picking… go see this.
The Matrix Revolutions
Despite the fact the movie tries way to hard to be really really epic (especially near the end – everything is soooo dramatic – by the time Trinity bites it, I was just thinking, come on! get it over with already!) I did like this movie. However, I was wondering about one thing… if the people can fly from Zion to the surface of the planet, why do the machines have to drill through anything to reach Zion?
The Matrix Reloaded
I had the feeling they made the “true reality of the Matrix” so complicated that nobody could really understand it… instead, all the moviegoers just nod their heads and say, “oh ya… that’s so deep.”. Huh? Some of the action scenes go on too long, but the middle of this movie – the parts with the keymaker & such – were really good. The whole thing actually started to feel like an alternate reality… it was so deep.
The Matrix
I hear they’re making a couple sequels to this at the same time. I’m sure they’ll make tons of money. yes, it was a neat stylish movie, I liked it. I was happy that they took plenty of time to explain exactly what the matrix was. I’ve seen too many movies that leave that kind of stuff hanging because they figure people won’t understand it anyway.
