      It's not like a movie anymore. Almost everyone who has watched "The Hacker II" is trying to figure it out.

      What is the truth of the Matrix? Discussions about the plot can be seen everywhere on the Internet, involving philosophy, religion, history, computers, physics, myths and legends. , the connotation and denotation of this film really stand up to these discussions. It's just that the deeper the discussion, the further away everything is from the movie.

        In my opinion,...

      commercial sci-fi

      Neo is the sum of the mantissas that cannot be accurately expressed when all the mathematical formulas in the matrix program are calculated (the "bugs" that actually exist in every computer system). Because NEO is a bug, in the matrix program, it has the ability of "savior". Backdoors include Prophet and keykeeper. The prophet told NEO to find the gatekeeper and enter the source code.

      (Not clear: NEO entered the main program, made up for the lack of the system, and selected 23 people...

      The Matrix

      The special effects of this sci-fi film are really good, especially the high-speed fighting scene. The camera is very fast and exciting. Whether it is driving a car or riding a motorcycle, the director perfectly uses the camera to interpret the tense and exciting atmosphere. It was very exciting, especially the scene where Morpheus and the agent were fighting on the roof of the car. Various overhead shots, close-up shots, and flat shots can catch the audience's attention and blend in...

      standard commercial popcorn movie

      1. The concepts and ideas put forward in the first part are the concept of Genesis. The second part and the third part are all extensions, without the height of thinking, but the second part is very exciting, especially in the fighting scenes, there are too many melee scenes It's very cool to look at, it feels like a superhero but not a superhero. In the high-speed racing and retrograde fights, the adrenaline is soaring, and the fighting scenes have the feeling of "Kung Fu".

      2. The...

      My prophecy predicts your prophecy - Black 2

      Mind blowing movie.

      Machine is more than just Machine.

      When each Program is personified, they are also escaping death, and it is the emergence of these loopholes that makes the Matrix have a doomed cycle.

      From the whole story, despite the thrills everywhere, it seems inevitable in retrospect, and that's exactly how it works.

      Why can the savior be so arrogant? Why can prophets be so arrogant? Why is Zion so arrogant?

      It turned out that they were all part of the...

      "The Matrix 2" made Keanu Reeves's trench coat and sunglasses fashionable again. In the film, the savior Neo in the rain, and the scene of the ultimate confrontation with countless Mr. Smiths is said to be a tribute to Wachowski's challenge to the kicker in Bruce Lee's "Fist of the Warriors". Although Yuan Baye's martial arts design did not break through Bruce Lee's actions here, Reeves did pay tribute to him with the shocking scene of one enemy...

      Since the scenes at the end of the second part and the beginning of the third part are completely connected, and I also watched the two parts in succession, there is no sense of separation like watching the second part after watching the first part. The first one is amazing enough, the latter two just want to see the development of the plot. And then I kept thinking in my heart that human beings will not really go to the point where they are in the movies, right? Really, according to the...

    Movie plot

    Neo finally realized his abilities and mission. While being "resurrected" by the bullet, he also became the omnipotent "savior". The "Ascension" at the end symbolizes the birth of a human superhero: Neo will lead the people of Zion base to start a counterattack against the machine world, and will end this battle as a winner, and return human beings to freedom.
    In fact, the entire "The Matrix 2: Reloaded" is Neo's process of exploring...

    Negative evaluation

    The film is worth recommending, but it's less than half of Steven Spielberg's "Artificial Intelligence." ( New York Observer Review )
    Perfection doesn't need explanation, but "The Matrix 2: Reloading" is just an explanation, adding a perfect section with the preface and the afterword. Business is to do what it likes. Anything that wins applause in the first episode will definitely be offered and doubled in The Matrix 2: Reloading. There...
