Neo (Keanu Reeves), Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss) and Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) continue their battle against the machines in Matrix Reloaded, the second chapter of the trilogy, Larry and Andy Wachowski Matrix. As RELOADED begins, Neo, Trinity and Morpheus arrive in Zion with new crew member Link (Harold Perrineau), and discover that 250,000 dreaded sentinels are close to launching a massive attack on the underground shelter of the liberated mind of humanity .
When Neo seeks advice from the prophetic Oracle (the late Gloria Foster), the encounter leads to a sorely outnumbered fight with Neo’s old nemesis, Agent Smith (Hugo Weaving). While the sentinels advance on Zion, various battles within the Matrix continue to rise, culminating in an extended sequence involving Highway Chase Morpheus, Trinity, more imposing agents, and two new adversaries - the relentless white dress Twins (Adrian and Neil Rayment). In Reloaded, the Wachowski brothers deepen the scope of both the parent and the apocalyptic, machine-controlled future reality. Initially giving ample attention to the romance between Neo and Trinity and the most underground city of Zion, the film eventually delivered an impressive piece after another, with incredible martial arts sequences and awesome in the first matrix effects even more amazing heights high.
In addition to the returning cast of Reeves, Moss, Fishburne, weaving, and Foster, Perrineau and Jada Pinkett Smith to welcome new additions, and Monica Bellucci offers an unforgettably sensual appearance. Larger than the original scale at all levels, The Matrix Reloaded is a very nice sequel that will leave viewers eager to conclude the trilogy, The Matrix Revolutions.

Jackie Chan returns to turn another tired Hollywood formula of Jackie Chan that worked so well in the eighties. Linking old boy and a coming star and allow the screen to eat the only way he knows, feet first.
So then welcome to our own Steve Coogan, who to be fair, that leaves the whole sorry mess with their dignity intact. But only a little. The thing is that the film falls flat on his face every time you try to be funny and once you’ve seen Jackie yours, in all but a hundred films not least, you can not fail to dispose of a procedure only feeling somewhat short changed.
Any movie that relies on cameos by stars, and boy they do that here, always going to have a steep hill to climb. Jackie has done much better movies, check out “Project A” and “Police Story” for more tests. Steve Coogan has made better films, check out ‘Twenty-four hours party people “…
You see where this is going? Around the world it is only watchable, just do not go too far from the way they see it.

First, I would say that’s a good movie, and one that has to be viewed on its own merits, and more importantly, to forget any of the usual legends of King Arthur. As I said this is a pretty good movie, although some of those that act by Clive Owen dad was like watching someone trying to act very wooden.
Ray Winstone makes the most of his paper but that does not really say much that is not a good actor, but these are the only memorable pieces in this film. I was confused from the beginning of the movie, but this was mainly due to my lack of knowledge or her about King Arthur and Merlin (was not he a magician?).
The fight scenes are quite graphic with a lot of blood and guts, but not as much as I have seen in the film some others, but that? S all I can say about them. If you’re after the traditional King Arthur, Lancelot, Merlin against evil, not to see this movie, as it is not, and see Excalibur.If want a movie that has good historical battle scenes, then watch Braveheart.
In short, do not watch this if after the traditional King Arthur, to see if your movie after a Saturday night faily good, with a little blood and guts, and I do not think that much about the plot cos that is not one .

I found this film quite average to be honest. The scenes of Vietnam is handled very well, and added a different background heist film.
However most of the characters in the film were dimensonal what you did not care for them, which removes the impact of the piece. Storywise seemed shallow and very cliché. It has some good set pieces and action scenes Tho and Nam Gorey pretty scene “that can make men winch.
Tho in general is a “hood” movies, and I found that other films in the genre to do better. (Also as part of this is on one side of the coin of older”DVD, so you have to turn around half way to see the 2nd part of the movie)

This is the funniest movie I’ve seen in a long time. The fact that someone made a movie about gay cowboys is brilliant, and had me in stitches throughout. It was not meant to be fun, but if you enjoy shows like Family Guy and South Park is on this side of distribution.
The story was pretty boring but the performance was brilliant, as we have come to expect from these big players. Must have been a very difficult movie to act in
Basically, I understand that my view is the opposite of most people and how they intended this film, but it’s fun and if you’re like me, you’ll enjoy it just because it has gay cowboys.

The reworking of classic Hollywood script of “kidnapping of the family of influential men and their struggle to save before they die.” Unfortunately this movie can not deliver and sometimes you will find yourself yelling at the screen of Harrison Ford’s character to stop being so stupid. The film is disjointed in places and rushed in others.
While Harrison Ford and Paul Bettany try to deliver a good performance not pull it off because the unconnected script. You never really empathize Harrison situation. I’m glad to not pay to see in the movies.

This film was brilliant, as always Bruce Willis was in his best form and the story had continuety larger with time elapsed since the last Die Hard movie for quite some time to get to see where he is now family and wise, I was a total action packed adventure that I thoroughly enjoyed with some wicked scenes of destruction with a very good story line too. Thanks Bruce for this, another in truth, the movie Die Hard.
ps. Listening to his famous catch phrase Die Hard, is put right at the perfect moment that we (my family and I) all voices, YES and laughed when he said it.

I know this film has much, if not all the bad reviews, I still think its worth at least once vewing. if not for the story, which is very complicated and layered, and probably not fully understood with one vision.
and sometimes isn’t brilliantly written dialogue, and characters to be a little cockney philosophers, who doesn’t quite work. But what this film is well worth seeing is the righteous way of the beauty that is shot and edited. amazinly each photo is shot, and edited some of the peices are excellent.
, In particualr the set where the murderer to pay out all of his own band, that’s incredible! although there is a segment of animation in it, and thats rubbish! but even if you do not like the story after I have observed, the images should be just enough to be an entertaining watch.
and people who watch movies just for the story and not consider the cinematography and the editing should stick to books!

I ve only really blame myself, the warning sign in big neon was a Michael Bay movie. Those four words really should have screamed not rent this movie, but he ignored me and as a result viewed the most complacent, sycophantic, consumer-driven film I’ve seen. Michael Bay, along with Jerry Bruckheimer and Tony Scott are more vain than men currently working in Hollywood.
Visually appealing and build strong gold pieces don t equate film, Bay, would be more prepared to make a music video and really someone should tell that overuse of the story is not it great ta slow motion saying device. On a side note, the plot is labored and boring, the action scenes are done better elsewhere, the action is laughable, and Ewan McGregor s horrible generic American accent which is adopted for every single movie bars than ever. Apart from that.
