The Matrix again

The Elder Son wanted to watch the 2nd Matrix movie tonight, but since The Daughter had never seen the first one, we watched it again so she'd have a clue. It's been a year since we watched it last. There is a trailer embedded at that link.

There is a fan site here. The BBC reviewed it here. The BFI has a review here. Roger Ebert's review is here, Salon.com's here, The New York Times reviews it here and RollingStone here. HollywoodJesus draws out the Christian parallels. EW gave it a C+ and a condescending review.

DecentFilms calls it "the most influential action movie since Star Wars" and "a cleverly made movie, but not a profound one".

We didn't end up watching the sequel.
