| Keanu Reeves returns as the hunky cyber-messiah Neo. The machines have
devised an army of 250,000 drones ("one for every man, woman and
child" in Zion) for the ultimate elimination of humanity. Morpheus

| When the Matrix first came out I was blown away. It
easily hit my list of best movies and second best

| I didn't quite know what to expect going into "The Matrix Reloaded," and I
came out with mixed feelings. This is a sequel to the 1999 film that
enthralled audiences. I was a bit underwhelmed by the original, and so I
figured the sequel would either be...more |

| With 1999's "The Matrix," Andy and Larry Wachowski created a post
apocalyptic
cyberpunk mind trip of a world unlike any we'd seen before. The film was
fresh
and smart, combining Big Ideas with arresting, groundbreaking visuals in an
experience that...more |

| It only takes about 45 seconds for The Matrix Reloaded to grab you by the

the original film would have it. On the opposite end of the spectrum, those
