Bammer's The Matrix Reloaded review


Copyright Rose Cooper, 2003


I'm ok, you're ok, but The Matrix Reloaded is jacked up.


I nearly named this "Clues For The Clueless", to address all the email I've gotten slamming my review of The Matrix Reloaded, but that's unfair for a number of reasons; first and foremost being that the so-called cluelessness for most of the respondents comes from an unfamiliarity with my (and 3BC's) swerve. So, to facilitate better understanding, I offer the following responses to some of the frothing rants reader email I've received (excerpts taken from actual email):

  • Q: "WTF is wrong with you, ya dumb bastard? Matrix rules!"
    A: No, dear, my mother and father were married before they had me.

  • Q: "This is my first - and last - visit to your sight. Your dum!"
    A: Aww, and just when we were getting to know each other...

  • Q: "Get back into the kitchen where you belong!"
    A: Clueless and sexist, go figure! Besides, I need a map to find the kitchen. I'm not exaggerating; ask my husband.

  • Q: "You people can never be satisfied, can you? If there are too few negroes in a movie, you complain. Too many, you complain. What if I talked about The White Factor in a review? You guys would be ready to riot again lol."

    A: Clueless and racist, go figure! Besides, The White Factor would be redundant.

    See if you can follow this: my 3BC partners and I (along with many other Enlightened people of many races) often note with dismay the lack of Color in many a filmmakers' vision of the future. My Black Factor message acknowledged the lack of such myopia by the Wachowski Bros. It was a compliment, silly boy.

    You probably didn't pick up the sarcasm in my Black Factor note; hard to do that with a white sheet covering your eyes...

  • Q: "Women can't possibly understand something deep like The Matrix. Stick with chick flicks, this isn't for girls."

    A: Deep, I grok; but The Matrix Reloaded ain't exactly Nietzsche, you know.

    Here's the thing: The Matrix (the original) knew how to mix it up; but Reloaded mistook gobbledegook and mumbo jumbo for Rilly Deep Philosophical Constructs. Plus, the orgy scene - pardon the pun - sucked.

  • Q: "Look, just admit you don't like The Matrix, it's ok."
    A: Read my review of the original movie, then get back to me. Or, not.

  • Q: "I want to have Keanu's baby how dare you talk about him you suck!"
    A: Back! back into the twit filter with you!
