"We're here to do what we're to do."
...and that is a perfect explication of the moebius strip that is The Matrix Reloaded. As a film, it's fair. Dramatically, it's not really very good at all. As for the action? Everything I'd hoped for. That was the reason I went to see it, and I wasn't disappointed in the least. The much-talked-about 14-minute car chase scene is amazing. The script is convoluted and shot full of holes, but the effects are something to see, and I recommend you do. But if afterwards, you're left wanting, and need to see a flick full of great action and characters/plotting you actually give a damn about, go see X2 - now, that's the summer movie to beat.
